Biopharma Mover: OS Therapies (OSTX) Announces Q2 Earnings
Today the clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company OS Therapies (OSTX) announced Q2 earnings after its recent successful IPO that raised $6.4M on July 31, 2024. After IPO and preferred shares and debt conversion share issuances, there are 20.85 million common shares outstanding, with 1.86 million common shares available to be traded. As of the date of the IPO the company had no debt with a cash runway into mid-2025 for its lead program OST-HER2.
The company’s sufficient capital will provide OS Therapies to meet another key objective that will allow for the completion of a pivotal safety study that would allow for the conditional approval already received by the US Department of Agriculture for OST-HER2 in canine osteosarcoma to be converted into a full approval, paving the way for commercialization nationwide. There are approximately 1,000 new human osteosarcoma diagnoses over 10,000 canine osteosarcoma diagnoses reported annually in the United States.
OS Therapies’ pipeline lead OST-HER2 is a Lm vector-based off-the-shelf Immunotherapy intended to prevent metastasis, delay recurrence, and increase overall survival. The Company has screened/enrolled 54 and dosed 41 patients per protocol of its AOST-2121 Phase 2b clinical trial in recurred, resected osteosarcoma testing OST-HER2 (Listeria monocytogenes). OST-HER2 has completed a Phase 1 clinical trial, primarily in breast cancer patients, in addition to strong preclinical data demonstrating efficacy on a standalone basis and in combination with HER2-targeting therapeutic antibodies such as Herceptin®. The Company intends to pursue therapeutic development of OST-HER2 in breast cancer following FDA approval for OST-HER2 in osteosarcoma.
The Company is a pre-revenue biotechnology company. The Company anticipates beginning to generate revenue through the sale of licensing rights to its products and product candidates as they achieve upcoming de-risking clinical and regulatory milestones.
