Item 8.01

Other Events.

On October 22, 2023, the Company provided the following pipeline updates.

RMC-6236

The Company reported updated preliminary safety and anti-tumor data for RMC-6236, its RASMULTI(ON) Inhibitor.

In the Company’s ongoing RMC-6236-001 Phase 1/1b trial, a total of 111 patients with either non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”) (n=46) or pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (“PDAC”) (n=65) treated across six dose cohorts ranging from 80 mg daily to 400 mg daily were evaluated for safety and tolerability as of a data cut-off date of October 12, 2023 (the “Data Cut-off Date”). Patients at dose levels below 80 mg daily were not included in this analysis based on the Company’s preclinical and pharmacokinetics predictions that these dose levels would not be associated with tumor regressions in patients and its clinical observations of these doses. Common RAS mutations in patients evaluated included G12D, G12V, G12R, G12A and G12S. Patients with KRASG12C mutations were excluded from the study due to the availability of currently approved KRASG12C(OFF) inhibitors. All of these patients had previously been treated with standard of care appropriate for tumor type and stage. Patients with NSCLC had received a median of two prior lines of therapy (range: 1–6) and patients with PDAC had received a median of three prior lines of therapy (range: 1–7).

As of the Data Cut-off Date, the Company observed that RMC-6236 demonstrated an acceptable safety profile that was generally well tolerated across the dose levels analyzed (Table 1). Median duration of treatment as of the Data Cut-off Date was 2.1 months (range: 0.2–10.9). The most common treatment-related adverse events (“TRAEs”) were rash and gastrointestinal (“GI”)-related toxicities that were primarily Grade 1 or 2 in severity. One previously reported Grade 4 TRAE occurred in a patient with PDAC at the 80 mg dose level who had a large intestine perforation at the site of an invasive tumor that reduced in size while on treatment, which resulted in treatment discontinuation. No fatal TRAEs were observed. No safety signals were observed that indicated an elevated risk of hepatotoxicity, which has been reported for some KRASG12C(OFF) inhibitors.

Includes preferred terms of dermatitis acneiform, rash maculopapular, rash, rash pustular, erythema, rash erythematous; multiple types of rash may have occurred in the same patient.

* The most common reason for dose reduction was rash.

Grade 3 TRAEs leading to reduction were rash (n=4), including one patient with a dose reduction due to rash and decreased appetite, and stomatitis (n=1).

^ One Grade 4 TRAE occurred in a patient with PDAC at the 80 mg dose level who had a large intestine perforation at the site of an invasive tumor that reduced in size while on treatment.

Clinical activity was evaluated as of the Data Cut-off Date in patients with NSCLC (n=40) and PDAC (n=46) who had received the first dose of RMC-6236 at least eight weeks prior to the Data Cut-off Date (n=86). Confirmed objective responses included tumors harboring KRAS mutations G12D, G12V or G12R, and disease control was observed across all KRAS mutations, including G12A and G12S.

As of the Data Cut-off Date, RMC-6236 demonstrated preliminary evidence of clinical activity in efficacy-evaluable NSCLC patients (Figure 1).

Patients who received first dose of RMC-6236 at least eight weeks prior to data extract date.

Among the efficacy evaluable NSCLC patients, the objective response rate was 38 percent, with one patient achieving a complete response (“CR”) as a best response and 14 patients achieving a partial response (“PR”) (including three unconfirmed PRs) (Table 2). The disease control rate (“DCR”) in this NSCLC population was 85 percent.

Two patients died prior to first post-baseline scan; one patient had scan after 11 days of treatment and subsequently died due to PD.

The Company is planning a global randomized phase 3 trial comparing RMC-6236 against docetaxel in patients with previously treated RAS-mutated NSCLC who have been treated with immunotherapy and platinum-containing chemotherapy. The study design for this planned trial is subject to change based on regulatory authority feedback. The Company is aiming to initiate this study in 2024.

The Company may potentially plan a global randomized phase 3 trial comparing RMC-6236 against a physician’s choice of chemotherapy regimens in patients with previously treated RAS-mutated PDAC. The study design for this potential trial is subject to change based on regulatory authority feedback. The Company expects to make a decision regarding plans for this study after additional patient follow-up regarding durability of response and dose optimization, but the Company believes the study could potentially be initiated in 2024.

Planning is underway for one or more combination pivotal clinical trials for RMC-6236 with standard of care therapies.

RMC-6291

Active recruitment of patients is underway for the Phase 1/1b clinical trial to evaluate the combination of RMC-6236 and RMC-6291.

RMC-4630

Based on the Company’s review of the complete data set from the RMC-4630-03 study, the Company concluded that the combination of RMC-4630 (200 mg intermittent dosing D1D2) with sotorasib (960 mg daily dosing) showed additive side effects compared to either agent alone and that tolerability was insufficient to confer a clinical benefit (objective response rate or durability) due to dose interruptions and discontinuations. The Company has no immediate plans for further development of RMC-4630, but believes this compound remains an option for potential evaluation in other combinations.
