Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. Announces First Patient Dosed in the Phase 2 Portion of the AlphaBreak Trial Evaluating FPI-2265 in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. announced that the first patient has been dosed in the Phase 2 portion of the AlphaBreak trial evaluating FPI-2265 (225Ac-PSMA I&T) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The AlphaBreak trial is a Phase 2/3, randomized, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of FPI-2265 in patients with mCRPC previously treated with 177Lu-PSMA radiotherapy. The Phase 2 dose optimization portion is designed to evaluate whether there are added safety and/or efficacy benefits of two alternative dosing regimens in comparison to the previously studied regimen of 100 kBq/kg every eight weeks. The Phase 2 portion of the AlphaBreak trial is expected to complete enrollment of approximately 60 patients by the end of 2024. Following analysis of the Phase 2 data and an end of Phase 2 meeting to determine the recommended Phase 3 dosing regimen with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Phase 3 global registration portion of the AlphaBreak trial will enroll approximately 550 patients and is expected to begin in 2025. FPI-2265 is an actinium-225 based PSMA targeting RC, for mCRPC, currently in a Phase 2 trial. Actinium-225 emits alpha particles and holds the promise of being a next-generation radioisotope in cancer treatment. By delivering a greater radiation dose over a shorter distance, alpha particles such as actinium-225 have the potential for more potent cancer cell killing, and targeted delivery, thereby minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.

Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. Announces Presentation of Preclinical Data Supporting FPI-2068, A Novel Targeted Alpha Therapy for EGFR-cMET Expressing Cancers Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. announced the presentation of preclinical data for FPI-2068, a clinical stage bispecific IgG-based targeted alpha therapy (TAT) designed to deliver actinium-225 to various solid tumors that co-express EGFR-cMET. Fusion is jointly developing FPI-2068 with AstraZeneca under the companies' multi-asset collaboration agreement. The data are being presented in a poster presentation at the 2023 AACR-NCI-EORTC International Conference on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics, being held October 11-15 in Boston, Massachusetts. In the preclinical study, FPI-2068 demonstrated anti-tumor efficacy in colorectal and lung tumor xenograft mouse models, and single dose administration of FPI-2068 led to prolonged tumor regression. Further, FPI-2068 caused activation of the DNA damage response (DDR) pathway as well as apoptosis, suggesting an inability of the cellular machinery to repair the DNA damage induced by the alpha radiation, consistent with the proposed primary mechanism of action. These data provide further evidence supporting the clinical development of FPI-2068, which is expected to enter a Phase 1 study for the treatment of solid tumors co-expressing EGFR-cMET. EGFR and cMET are both validated targets that are co-expressed in multiple tumor types, including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal cancer, and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of American stocks, typically moving 12% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates 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. It also 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 14% per year for the foreseeable future. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (59% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (US$368k revenue).

Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. to Present Interim Data from Phase 1 Trial of FPI-1434 in Patients with Solid Tumors Expressing IGF-1R Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. announced the presentation of interim data from the dose escalation portion of the Phase 1 trial of [Ac]-FPI-1434 (FPI-1434) in patients with solid tumors expressing IGF-1R. The data will be presented by Neeta Pandit-Taskar, M.D., of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, at the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) Annual Meeting and will include molecular imaging, safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) from two dosing regimens: one with FPI-1434 alone, and another in which a small dose of cold antibody (naked IGF-1R antibody without the isotope) is administered prior to each dose of FPI-1434. The Phase 1, multi-center, open-label clinical trial is designed to investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of FPI-1434 in patients with solid tumors expressing IGF-1R. The trial is also designed to establish the maximum tolerated dose for FPI-1434 and the recommended Phase 2 dose. As part of the precision medicine approach, prior to receiving the therapeutic injection of FPI-1434, patients are administered an indium-111 imaging analogue, [In]-FPI-1547 (FPI-1547). The images collected are used to confirm the presence of tumor uptake and ensure that estimated radiation doses to organs and tissues are below protocol-specified safety limits. Based on results from an imaging sub-study evaluating pre-administration of cold antibody prior to each dose of FPI-1547 that demonstrated a favorable gain in tumor lesion uptake versus normal tissue, the Company amended the Phase 1 trial protocol to evaluate both the hot only and cold/hot dosing regimens. Cold/Hot Dosing Regimen: In the cold/hot arm, three patients were dosed in Cohort 1 at a dose of 15 kBq/kg following pre-administration of cold antibody. In Cohort 1, cold/hot dosing was observed to be safe with no treatment-related serious adverse events (SAEs) or dose limiting toxicities (DLTs). Absorbed dose to critical organs (kidney, liver and lungs) in this dosing regimen were less than 7% of defined limits, supporting continued dose escalation. Pre-administration of cold antibody demonstrated improved tumor uptake while also reducing hematological toxicity observed in the hot only dosing arm. When normalized to 15 kBq/kg, the average lesion absorbed dose and dose/volume in the cold/hot arm were nearly double the level compared to hot only. Further, 15 kBq/kg in the cold/hot dosing arm shows comparable systemic exposure to approximately 40 kBq/kg of a hot only dose, but shows an improved hematological safety profile as measured by changes in platelet count. Two heavily pre-treated patients from the cold/hot dosing arm received three and five cycles of treatment, with both achieving durable stable disease as their best response. The dose level from Cohort 1, while sufficient to demonstrate marked differences in tumor uptake and achieve stable disease, was expected to be sub-optimal with respect to efficacy. Fusion is currently enrolling Cohort 2 in the cold/hot dosing regimen at 25 kBq/kg and expects to report data from this cohort around year-end 2023. Hot Only Dosing Regimen: In the hot only multiple ascending arm, six patients were dosed across two cohorts. Dose-dependent decrease in blood counts, particularly thrombocytopenia, was identified as the most common type of adverse event related to FPI-1434, with Grade 4 thrombocytopenia observed at 75 kBq/kg and 55 kBq/kg. The Company has discontinued dosing in the hot only dosing arm and no longer plans to use this method of FPI-1434 administration. Major Estimate Revision • Jun 22

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 59% 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 Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 13% per year for the foreseeable future. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (59% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (US$904k revenue).

Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. Announces First Patient Dosed in Phase 1/2 Study of FPI-1966 in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors Expressing FGFR3 Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. announced that the first patient has been dosed in the Phase 1/2 study evaluating [225Ac]-FPI-1966 (FPI-1966) in patients with advanced solid tumors expressing fibroblast growth factor receptor three (FGFR3). FPI-1966 utilizes Fusion's Fast-Clear™ linker to connect vofatamab, a human monoclonal antibody that targets FGFR3, with actinium-225. The Phase 1/2 multi-center, open-label clinical trial is designed to investigate the safety, tolerability, dosimetry, biodistribution, and pharmacokinetics of FPI-1966 in patients with FGFR3-expressing advanced, inoperable, metastatic, and/or recurrent solid tumors. The study employs a 3 + 3 dose escalation design to evaluate multiple ascending doses of FPI-1966. The first cohort will comprise sub-groups in which various doses of non-radiolabeled vofatamab ("cold antibody") will be evaluated to assess the impact of pre-dosing on tumor uptake and pharmacokinetics. As part of the trial, patients will be administered an imaging analogue of FPI-1966, FPI-1967, and only those who upon imaging meet predefined tumor uptake will go on to receive FPI-1966. The Phase 2 portion of the study will consist of two tumor-specific cohorts and one basket cohort. Fusion plans to provide guidance on timing for preliminary pharmacokinetic, imaging and safety data following initial experience with patient screening via imaging with FPI-1967, in order to more accurately predict the cadence of patient enrollment. FPI-1966 is a targeted alpha therapy designed to target and deliver an alpha emitting medical isotope, actinium-225, to cancer cells expressing FGFR3; a receptor that is overexpressed on several tumor types, including bladder, ovarian and head and neck cancers. FPI-1966 utilizes Fusion's Fast-Clear™ linker to connect vofatamab, a human monoclonal antibody that targets FGFR3, with actinium-225. Vofatamab was previously evaluated as a therapeutic agent in a Phase 1b/2 trial and was reportedly well-tolerated. Recent Insider Transactions • Aug 12

Fusion Pharmaceuticals Announces FDA Clearance of IND for FPI-2059, an Investigational Small Molecule-Based Radiopharmaceutical Targeting Solid Tumors Expressing NTSR1 Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared the Company's Investigational New Drug (IND) applications for [225Ac]-FPI-2059 (FPI-2059) and the corresponding imaging analogue [111In]-FPI-2058 (FPI-2058). FPI-2059 is a targeted alpha therapy (TAT) designed to use a small molecule to target and deliver actinium-225 to tumor sites expressing neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1), a protein that is overexpressed in multiple solid tumor types, including colorectal, pancreatic, gastric, neuroendocrine differentiated prostate, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and Ewing sarcoma cancers. Fusion acquired [177Lu]-IPN-1087 (IPN-1087), a lutetium-based beta-emitting radiopharmaceutical, from Ipsen in April 2021, and converted the compound to the alpha-emitting [225Ac]-FPI-2059. In clinical studies, IPN-1087 showed promising early safety data and good uptake in multiple tumor types. In a head-to-head in vivo comparison of therapeutic efficacy in a mouse xenograft model of colorectal cancer between FPI-2059 and IPN-1087, results show tumor regression with FPI-2059 is achieved at doses of approximately 1500 times lower than IPN-1087. Fusion plans to initiate a Phase 1, non-randomized, open-label clinical trial in patients with solid tumors expressing NTSR1, intended to investigate safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics and to establish the recommended Phase 2 dose. The study will prioritize six solid tumor indications, including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, pancreatic, neuroendocrine prostate, colorectal, gastric and Ewing sarcoma. The study employs a 3 + 3 dose escalation design to evaluate multiple ascending doses of FPI-2059. As part of the screening process, patients will be administered an imaging analogue of FPI-2059, FPI-2058, and only those who meet predefined tumor uptake and safety criteria will go on to receive FPI-2059. Radiopharmaceuticals are a precision medicine in that the alpha therapeutic can be converted into a corresponding imaging analogue with a different radionuclide (in this case indium), used to screen for a biomarker in patients with tumors that express the cancer target, increasing the likelihood of response to therapy. Fusion plans to provide additional guidance on timelines for the FPI-2059 program following initial experience with patient screening in order to better predict the cadence of patient enrollment. FPI-2059 (FPI-2059) is a targeted alpha therapy combining actinium-225 with a small molecule designed to target neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1), in development as a potential treatment for various solid tumors. NTSR1 is a promising target for cancer treatment that is overexpressed in multiple solid tumors including colorectal, pancreatic, gastric, neuroendocrine differentiated prostate, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and Ewing sarcoma cancers. FPI-2059 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 study. お知らせ • Jun 15
Fusion Pharmaceuticals Presents Imaging Data from Cold Antibody Sub-Study in the Phase 1 Study of FPI-1434 Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. announced the presentation of imaging data from the "cold antibody sub-study" evaluating pre-administration of cold antibody (naked antibody without the isotope) prior to administration of the imaging agent (antibody with the isotope) in the Phase 1 study of FPI-1434 for the treatment of solid tumors expressing IGF-1R. The cold antibody sub-study was conducted concurrently with the dose escalation portion of the Phase 1 study of FPI-1434 for the treatment of solid tumors. The sub-study was designed to determine the safety, tolerability, and effect of administration of varying doses of FPI-1175, the naked antibody without the isotope, or "cold antibody", on the biodistribution, dosimetry and tumor uptake of [111In]-FPI-1547, the investigational imaging agent. Imaging data from the study demonstrate a favorable gain in [111In]-FPI-1547 tumor lesion uptake versus normal tissue when FPI-1175 was pre-administered and compared to dosing with FPI-1547 alone. Importantly, sites of improved tumor lesion uptake were independent of anatomic location of disease and included bone, lung, liver, and lymph nodes. Administration of FPI-1547 with and without pre-administration of FPI-1175 was safe without any drug-related Serious Adverse Events or Dose Limiting Toxicities. Pre-administration of FPI-1175 at 0.5 mg/kg is currently being evaluated with increasing dose levels of FPI-1434 in the ongoing Phase 1 study. お知らせ • Jun 10

Data observed from a completed cold-antibody sub-study demonstrate the potential of pre-dosing cold antibody prior to FPI-1434 to increase the tumor to non-tumor distribution ratio of the radiopharmaceutical and thereby potentially improve the therapeutic window. As a result, Fusion initiated the dosing regimen evaluating pre-administration of cold antibody prior to FPI-1434 following a protocol amendment to the ongoing Phase 1 study of FPI-1434. Fusion expects to present more detailed data from the cold-antibody sub-study at the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Medical Imaging 2022 Annual Meeting taking place in Vancouver, British Columbia from June 11-14, 2022. Given the protocol amendment to include the dosing regimen evaluating pre-administration of cold-antibody and the time required to generate sufficient data to be able to provide information on both dosing paradigms, as well as ongoing enrollment challenges relating to staffing and resourcing issues at trial sites, and additional review boards required at trial sites for novel alpha-emitting radiopharmaceuticals, Fusion now expects to report Phase 1 safety, pharmacokinetics, and imaging data, including any evidence of anti-tumor activity, and details on the dosing regimen, in the first half of 2023. Overview of FPI-1966 Phase 1 Clinical Trial: The Phase 1, non-randomized, open-label clinical trial of FPI-1966 in patients with solid tumors expressing FGFR3, intended to investigate safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics and to establish the recommended Phase 2 dose, has been initiated. The first cohort in this study will comprise four sub-groups in which various doses of non-radiolabeled vofatamab will be evaluated to assess the impact of pre-dosing on tumor uptake. As previously disclosed, Fusion experienced initial challenges with study site initiations and is further experiencing enrollment challenges similar to the FPI-1434 study, including study backlogs as COVID-19 headwinds ease, staffing shortages at trial sites, and additional review boards required at trial sites for novel alpha-emitting radiopharmaceuticals. As a result, Fusion now expects to dose the first patient in the FPI-1966 Phase 1 study in the second half of 2022. In addition, Fusion plans to provide updated guidance for preliminary pharmacokinetic, imaging and safety data from the first patient cohort once patient enrollment begins.

Fusion Pharmaceuticals Announces Preliminary Safety and Dosimetry Results from its Single-Dose Portion of the Phase 1 Study of FPI-1434 Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. announced the presentation of preliminary Phase 1 data from the single-dose portion of the study at the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) Virtual Annual Meeting. The presentations and posters highlight the potential of Fusion's targeted alpha therapies (TATs) to enable delivery of alpha particle emitting isotopes (225Ac) to targeted tumor cells. In both the oral session and the poster titled, "Preliminary Dosimetry Results from a First-in-Human Phase 1 Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of [225Ac]-FPI-1434 in Patients with IGF-1R Expressing Solid Tumors," results from the first three patient cohorts (n=12) demonstrated a favorable safety profile for [225Ac]-FPI-1434. No drug-related serious adverse events and/or dose limiting toxicity were reported in administered activity up to 40 kBq/kg body weight and dosimetric results were within normal organ radiation tolerability limits. The single dose escalation portion of the study has concluded, while enrollment into the multi-dosing cohorts are ongoing. FPI-1434 is a radioimmunoconjugate designed to target and deliver alpha emitting medical isotopes to cancer cells expressing IGF-1R, a receptor that is overexpressed on many tumor types. FPI-1434 utilizes Fusion's Fast-Clear linker to connect a human monoclonal antibody that targets IGF-1R with actinium-225, a powerful alpha-emitting isotope with desirable half-life and decay chain properties. Fusion presented preclinical data demonstrating synergistic efficacy against olaparib-resistant colorectal and radioresistant lung cancer xenografts when combining FPI-1434 with olaparib. The combination of the two therapeutics, using doses that were non-effective as single agents, resulted in anti-tumor efficacy against colorectal and non-small cell lung cancer tumor models. The strongest combination effect appeared to occur at the lowest single agent doses, as FPI-1434's efficacy dominated at higher dose levels.
Fusion also presented preclinical data showing that treatment with FPI-1434 in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors resulted in complete tumor eradication. Additionally, an increase in antigen-specific CD8 positive T cells and a strong "vaccine" effect were observed with the combination of IGF-1R TAT and immune checkpoint inhibitors, as noted by the prevention of tumor growth in animals that were reinoculated with the same tumor cells.

Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. Initiates Multi-Dose Portion of Phase 1 Trial of FPI-1434 in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors Fusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. announced that the first patient has been dosed in the multi-dose portion of the Phase 1 study evaluating [225Ac]-FPI-1434 (FPI-1434) in patients with advanced solid tumors. FPI-1434 is a radioimmunoconjugate that utilizes Fusion's proprietary Fast-Clear linker to connect a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R), with the alpha-emitting isotope actinium-225, creating a targeted alpha therapy (TAT). The Phase 1, multi-center, open-label clinical trial is designed to investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of FPI-1434 in patients with solid tumors expressing IGF-1R. The trial is also designed to establish the maximum tolerated dose for FPI-1434 and the recommended Phase 2 dose. As part of the precision medicine approach, prior to receiving the therapeutic injection of FPI-1434, patients are administered an indium-111 imaging analogue, [111In]-FPI-1547 (FPI-1547). The images collected are used to confirm the presence of tumor uptake and to ensure that estimated radiation doses to organs and tissues are below protocol-specified safety limits. The multi-dose study follows completion of the single-dose portion of the Phase 1 study, which showed that FPI-1434 was generally well tolerated with no dose limiting toxicities or treatment-related serious adverse events reported to date. The multi-dose portion of the study is expected to enroll patients at sites in Canada, the United States and Australia. The initial patient cohort is being dosed with FPI-1434 at 75kBq/kg with repeat cycles every six weeks up to allowable limits. Is New 90 Day High Low • Nov 05
