and Gastric Cancer

OS Therapies (NYSE American: OSTX) (“OS Therapies” or “the
Company”), a clinical-stage immunotherapy and Antibody Drug
Conjugate (ADC) biopharmaceutical company, today announced the
development and in vitro concept data for two novel ADC therapeutic
candidates leveraging the Company’s proprietary SiLinker™
technology. The Company has completed target engagement tests for
both therapeutic candidates and confirmed their therapeutic
potential. These new constructs will target Breast, Lung and
Gastric Cancer; and Ovarian, Fallopian Tube and Primary Peritoneal
Cancer, respectively.
The Company is advancing its tADC platform through successive
product development de-risking milestones and intends to
out-license certain therapeutic candidates and components that are
strategic to potential partners’ pipelines – particularly the
ph-sensitive SiLinker™. The Company’s first tADC asset
OST-tADC-FRα-H has achieved proof of concept in animal models of
ovarian cancer. With the additional two constructs now added to the
pipeline, the Company is positioning itself to become a key
provider of intellectual property for new therapeutic product
development to partners. All while continuing to focus its internal
resources on bringing to market the OST-HER2 off-the-shelf
immunotherapy cancer vaccine platform for canines with
osteosarcoma, and for humans with osteosarcoma and other HER2
positive cancers such as breast cancer and colorectal cancer.
