TRACON Pharmaceuticals Announces Termination of Envasarc Trial and Will Explore Strategic Alternatives Leveraging Its In-House Product Development Platform TRACON Pharmaceuticals announced the objective response rate (ORR) by blinded independent central review (BICR) in the fully enrolled ENVASARC pivotal trial in the 82 evaluable patients is 5% (four responders), which is lower than the primary endpoint of the study of 11% ORR by BICR needed to support a biologics license application (BLA). As a result, the Company is terminating further development of envafolimab and is focusing entirely on exploring strategic alternatives in the near term that may include, but are not limited to, a merger, reverse merger, acquisition, other business combination, sales of assets, licensing or other strategic transactions involving the Company. In pursuit of any potential strategic transaction, TRACON plans to leverage its turnkey in-house Product Development Platform (PDP) utilizing integrated Veeva systems that has been used to conduct more than 15 Phase 1, 2 or 3 oncology trials at more than 120 sites in the U.S. and Europe across more than ten tumor types over 12 years, at a fully burdened cost of less than $100,000 per patient. TRACON offers cost-savings, time savings and enhanced quality of clinical trials using its PDP. There can be no assurance the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any agreements or transactions, or, if completed, any agreements or transactions will be successful or on attractive terms. To the extent that it cannot complete a strategic transaction, there is no guarantee that the Company will continue as a going concern. TRACON does not expect to disclose developments with respect to this process until the evaluation of strategic alternatives has been completed or the Board of Directors has concluded disclosure is appropriate or legally required.

TRACON Pharmaceuticals Provides Update on Ongoing ENVASARC Phase 2 Pivotal Trial Following Independent Data Monitoring Committee Recommendation to Continue the Trial as Planned TRACON Pharmaceuticals, Inc. announced the independent data monitoring committee (IDMC), following a review of ongoing safety and efficacy data on April 2, recommended the ENVASARC Phase 2 pivotal trial continue as planned. The ENVASARC Phase 2 pivotal trial completed enrollment in March 2024 with a total of 82 evaluable patients in cohort C of treatment with single agent envafolimab at 600 mg SQ every three weeks and final data are expected in the third quarter of 2024. The IDMC reviewed interim safety and efficacy data from 73 patients enrolled into cohort C who had the opportunity to complete two on-treatment scans (a minimum of 12 weeks of treatment). The objective response rate (ORR) is currently 11% by investigator review and the confirmed ORR by blinded independent central review (BICR) is currently 5.5% (four patients). Median duration of response by BICR is greater than six months. Envafolimab has been well tolerated without the development of a single drug-related serious adverse event of grade 3 or higher. The primary endpoint of the study is achievement of an objective response in nine of 82 patients (11%) treated with envafolimab by BICR and median duration of response of greater than six months is a key secondary endpoint.

New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of American stocks, typically moving 23% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (23% average weekly change). Negative equity (-US$809k). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (91% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (US$1.8m net loss in 3 years). Market cap is less than US$100m (US$17.7m market cap). New Risk • Mar 06
New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 93% This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Negative equity (-US$809k). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (93% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$10m (US$8.53m market cap).

Additional safety and efficacy data were reviewed for 46 patients enrolled into cohort C who were the subject of the September independent data monitoring committee (IDMC) review. At that time, patients had completed a minimum of 12 weeks of efficacy evaluations and the objective response rate (ORR) was 13% by investigator review and 8.7% by blinded independent central review (BICR).

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 0.1% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$22m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (19% average weekly change). Negative equity (-US$16m). Earnings have declined by 0.1% per year over the past 5 years.

TRACON Pharmaceuticals Announces ENVASARC Phase 2 Pivotal Trial Exceeded Futility Threshold at Final Interim Analysis and Will Continue as Planned TRACON Pharmaceuticals announced that the ENVASARC Phase 2 pivotal trial more than satisfied the futility threshold of 3 responses out of 46 based on the results of the second and final mandated independent data monitoring committee (IDMC) efficacy review, and the trial will continue as planned. The IDMC reviewed interim safety and efficacy data from 46 patients enrolled into cohort C of treatment with single agent envafolimab who completed two on-treatment scans (a minimum of 12 weeks of efficacy evaluations). The objective response rate (ORR) in the initial 46 patients treated with single agent envafolimab was 13% by investigator review and 8.7% by blinded independent central review (BICR). The ORR assessed by BICR, all of which were confirmed responses, more than satisfied the prespecified futility rule and envafolimab monotherapy was generally well tolerated. Median duration of response by BICR was greater than six months. The primary endpoint of the study is achievement of an ORR in nine of 80 patients (11.25%) treated with envafolimab by BICR and median duration of response of greater than six months is a key secondary endpoint. The trial has enrolled more than 60 of the planned 80 patients and full accrual of the ENVASARC pivotal trial is expected in the fourth quarter of this year with final data anticipated in mid-2024.

TRACON Pharmaceuticals Announces Positive Results Based on Double-Digit Objective Response Rate in Each Cohort from the Ongoing ENVASARC Phase 2 Pivotal Trial TRACON Pharmaceuticals announced the IDMC for the ongoing ENVASARC Phase 2 pivotal trial recommended continued accrual as planned in both cohorts: single agent envafolimab and envafolimab in combination with Yervoy (ipilimumab). The IDMC reviewed interim safety and efficacy data from 18 patients enrolled into each cohort who completed a minimum of 12 weeks of efficacy evaluations (two on-treatment scans). The double-digit ORR assessed by blinded independent central review in each cohort more than satisfied the prespecified futility rule. Envafolimab monotherapy and in combination with Yervoy was well tolerated, with only a single related serious adverse event reported in 36 patients. Responses were noted in patients regardless of weight at the 600 mg dose of envafolimab that was instituted following the previous IDMC review of interim safety and efficacy data from patients in the ENVASARC trial treated at the 300 mg dose of envafolimab. Envafolimab (KN035), a single-domain antibody against PD-L1 invented by Alphamab Oncology and licensed by TRACON, is the first approved subcutaneously injected PD-(L)1 inhibitor. Envafolimab was approved by the Chinese NMPA in November 2021 in adult patients with MSI-H/dMMR advanced solid tumors who failed systemic treatment and have no satisfactory alternative treatment options. In December 2019, Alphamab Oncology, 3D Medicines and TRACON entered into a collaboration whereby TRACON has the right to develop and commercialize envafolimab in soft tissue sarcoma in North America. Envafolimab is currently being studied in the ENVASARC Phase 2 pivotal trial in the United States sponsored by TRACON and a Phase 3 pivotal trial in combination with gemcitabine and oxaliplatin in advanced biliary tract cancer patients in China sponsored by TRACON’s corporate partners, Alphamab Oncology and 3D Medicines. In September 2022, TRACON received fast track designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for envafolimab (KN035) for patients with locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) and myxofibrosarcoma (MFS) who have progressed on one or two prior lines of chemotherapy. The ENVASARC pivotal trial is a multicenter, open label, randomized, non-comparative, parallel cohort study at 30 top cancer centers in the United States and the United Kingdom that began dosing in December 2020.

TRACON Pharmaceuticals Announces Initiation of Randomized Phase 2 Trial of TRC102 in Lung Cancer Sponsored by the National Cancer Institute TRACON Pharmaceuticals announced that the National Cancer Institute (NCI) has initiated a randomized Phase 2 trial of TRC102 in combination with chemoradiation in patients with stage III non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. The open-label two arm trial will enroll 78 patients and assess the benefit of adding TRC102 to current standard of care treatment of pemetrexed, cisplatin, and radiation therapy followed by consolidative durvalumab. The primary endpoint of the trial is progression free survival (PFS) and the trial is designed to detect an improvement in PFS at one year from 56% to 75%. Enrollment is expected to begin in June 2022 and results are expected in 2024. The randomized trial builds upon positive data from a Phase 1 trial of TRC102 in combination with chemoradiation presented at ASCO 2020 that demonstrated a 100% response rate in 15 patients with Stage IIIA or Stage IV non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer, including three patients who had a complete response to treatment. These data compared favorably to historical data of the same combination of chemoradiation without TRC102 in advanced lung cancer from the PROCLAIM and the PACIFIC clinical trials. TRC102 (methoxyamine) is a novel, small molecule inhibitor of the DNA base excision repair pathway, which is a pathway that causes resistance to alkylating and antimetabolite chemotherapeutics. TRC102 is currently being studied in multiple Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials sponsored by the National Cancer Institute through a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) and has orphan drug designation from the U.S. FDA in malignant glioma, including glioblastoma.

TRACON Pharmaceuticals Announces Positive Results from the Independent Data Monitoring Committee Review of Interim Safety and Efficacy Data from the Ongoing ENVASARC Pivotal Trial TRACON Pharmaceuticals, Inc. announced the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) for the ongoing ENVASARC pivotal trial recommended continued accrual as planned in both cohort A of single agent envafolimab and cohort B of envafolimab given with Yervoy (ipilimumab). The IDMC reviewed interim safety and efficacy data from 18 patients enrolled into each cohort who completed a minimum of 12 weeks of efficacy evaluations (two on-treatment scans). The ORR by BICR in each cohort satisfied the prespecified futility rule. Envafolimab was well tolerated, with only a single Grade 3 related adverse event reported in 36 patients. Based on the highly tolerable safety profile and the significantly higher ORR observed in lower weight patients, the IDMC recommended increasing the envafolimab dose to 600 mg Q3W, which is twice the current envafolimab dose of 300 mg Q3W. Given the robust activity demonstrated by higher doses of envafolimab in completed studies, including in the pivotal trial in MSI-H/dMMR cancer that was the basis for approval in China, TRACON agrees with the IDMC guidance and will recommend this dose to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) through a protocol amendment.

TRACON Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Reports Regulatory Approval of Envafolimab in China TRACON Pharmaceuticals, Inc. reported that its partners Alphamab Oncology and 3D Medicines (Beijing) Co. Ltd. announced that envafolimab (KN035), the world's first single-domain PD-L1 antibody formulated for subcutaneous injection received marketing authorization from the Chinese National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). Envafolimab was approved for adult patients with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or deficient MisMatch Repair (dMMR) advanced solid tumors, including those patients with advanced colorectal cancer who have experienced disease progression following treatment with a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan, as well as patients with other advanced solid tumors who have experienced disease progression following prior systemic treatment and have no satisfactory alternative treatment options. Prior to this approval, all marketed PD-1 and PD-L1 antibody drugs required intravenous infusions. As a subcutaneously administered PD-L1 antibody, envafolimab can be administered within 30 seconds in the physician’s office—thereby increasing convenience, shortening treatment time and sparing patients from the risk of infusion reactions. In a pivotal phase 2 clinical study in patients with advanced dMMR/MSI-H tumors who received one or more lines of treatment, envafolimab demonstrated an objective response rate (ORR) by blinded independent radiographic review (BIRR) of 44.7%, including 12 (11.7%) cases of complete response. Responses were durable, with duration of response at 12 months in responding patients with advanced colorectal cancer (CRC), advanced gastric cancer, other advanced solid tumors, and all responding patients of 89%, 100%, 100%, and 93%, respectively. Median progression-free survival was 11.1 months and the 12-month overall survival rate was 73.6%. The confirmed ORR by BIRR in MSI-H/dMMR CRC patients treated with envafolimab who failed a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan was 32%, which was similar to the 28% confirmed ORR reported in the OPDIVO® package insert in MSI-H/dMMR CRC patients who failed a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan treatment and the 33% confirmed ORR reported for KEYTRUDA® in MSI-H/dMMR CRC patients who failed a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan treatment in cohort A of the phase 2 KEYNOTE-164 trial. Envafolimab was well tolerated in this study and no cases of immune-related pneumonitis, immune-related colitis, or immune-related nephritis were reported. Annuncio • Jul 24

TRACON Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Announces Publication in Cancer Cell of Clinical Data That Provides Molecular Insight into the Mechanism of Action of Trc102 and Patient Populations Most Likely to Respond to Treatment TRACON Pharmaceuticals, Inc. announced the publication of clinical data that provides molecular insight into TRC102™s mechanism of action and patient populations most likely to respond to treatment. The article, entitled, Molecular Features of Cancers Exhibiting Exceptional Responses to Treatment, highlights the clinical features and tumor biology of an exceptional responder patient treated with TRC102 at the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The patient was diagnosed with metastatic and highly refractory colorectal cancer and received temozolomide (Temodar®) and TRC102. Following treatment, the patient was considered an exceptional responder through the achievement of a near compete response lasting 45 months at the most recent follow-up. Detailed molecular analyses of the patient™s tumor showed silencing of DNA repair pathways that may have resulted in sensitivity
to the inhibition of DNA base excision repair pathway by TRC102. Specifically, MGMT expression was silenced by promoter methylation, and RAD50, a mediator of DNA double strand break repair, was silenced by genetic mutation and loss of heterozygosity. The publication authors hypothesized that the combination of Temodar and TRC102 was effective because all necessary DNA repair pathways were compromised genetically or through the activity of TRC102. MGMT expression was also assessed in biopsies from 11 colorectal patients who subsequently enrolled in an expansion cohort, one of which demonstrated a partial response. The tumor associated with the partial response did not express MGMT, whereas each of the 10 tumors that did not respond to therapy expressed this enzyme robustly. Annuncio • Nov 18

Tracon Pharmaceuticals Highlights Updated Envafolimab Clinical Results in MSI-H/dMMR Colorectal Cancer TRACON Pharmaceuticals highlighted updated clinical data from the pivotal trial of envafolimab in MSI-H/dMMR cancer patients that were recently presented by the Company’s corporate partners, 3D Medicines and Alphamab Oncology. In a presentation highlighting updated clinical results at the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) 2020 Virtual Scientific Program entitled, “Subcutaneous Injection of PD-L1 Antibody Envafolimab (KN035) in Advanced Tumors with Mismatch-Repair Deficiency,” single agent envafolimab was shown to have a 32% confirmed objective response rate (ORR) by central radiographic review of 41 patients with MSI-H/dMMR colorectal cancer (CRC) who failed a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan, and had at least two on-study tumor assessments. Duration of response (DOR) was greater than or equal to 12 months in 75% of patients and overall survival (OS) was greater than or equal to 12 months in 65% of patients. The ORR in the overall population (N=103) was 43%, DOR was greater than or equal to 12 months in 92% of patients and OS was greater than or equal to 12 months in 75% of patients. Envafolimab demonstrated good tolerability and safety and there continued to be no infusion-related reactions. Earlier data from this trial were presented by 3D Medicines and Alphamab Oncology at ASCO 2020, in a presentation entitled, “Envafolimab (KN035) in Advanced Tumors with Mismatch-Repair Deficiency,” at which time single agent envafolimab was shown to have a 28% confirmed ORR by central radiographic review in 39 patients with MSI-H/dMMR CRC who failed a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan, and had at least two on-study tumor assessments. The trial enrolled 103 patients with MSI-H CRC, GC or with dMMR in other advanced solid tumors at clinical sites in China, in an open label format with efficacy endpoints, including the primary endpoint of confirmed ORR determined by independent central review. MSI-H/dMMR status was assessed centrally for CRC and GC and locally for other tumors. The confirmed ORR in MSI-H/dMMR colorectal cancer patients treated with envafolimab who failed a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan reported at CSCO 2020 of 32% is similar to the 28% confirmed ORR reported in the Opdivo package insert in MSI-H/dMMR colorectal cancer patients who failed a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan, and the 27.9% confirmed ORR reported for Keytruda in MSI-H/dMMR CRC patients who failed a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan seen in cohort A of the pivotal KEYNOTE-164 trial.
