Revolution Medicines, Inc. (Nasdaq: RVMD), a clinical-stage
oncology company developing targeted therapies for patients with
RAS-addicted cancers, today announced its financial results for the
quarter ended September 30, 2024, and provided an update on
corporate progress.
The company is committed to revolutionizing
treatment for patients with RAS-addicted cancers through the
discovery, development and delivery of innovative, targeted
medicines across lines of therapy and tumor types.
“We’ve made enormous progress on behalf of
patients against this year’s strategic priorities, having now
demonstrated encouraging clinical results for our three pioneering
clinical-stage RAS(ON) inhibitors. Recently updated data for
RMC-6236 continued to elaborate its compelling clinical profile,
including highly encouraging progression-free survival and overall
survival in patients with previously treated pancreatic cancer, and
a Phase 3 pivotal study is now underway. A first report on RMC-9805
showcased its encouraging initial clinical profile in patients with
KRAS G12D pancreatic cancer, marking the first oral, covalent,
mutant-selective investigational drug to show initial promise in
patients with tumors harboring this common mutation,” said Mark A.
Goldsmith, M.D., Ph.D., chief executive officer and chairman of
Revolution Medicines. “We believe these are major milestones on our
path toward serving patients with RAS-addicted cancers, and we
expect to provide additional updates before year-end that should
help set the stage for continued pipeline progress in our
multilayered approach in 2025.”
Recent Clinical Highlights &
Upcoming Milestones
Pancreatic Cancer The company
currently has two RAS(ON) inhibitors being developed for patients
with advanced or metastatic PDAC, RMC-6236, a RAS(ON)
multi-selective inhibitor, and RMC-9805, a RAS(ON) G12D-selective
inhibitor. The company is currently evaluating both compounds as
monotherapy and in combination regimens.
RMC-6236 Clinical Updates
- On October 21, 2024, the company reported that the first
patient was dosed in RASolute 302, a Phase 3 registrational study
evaluating RMC-6236 compared with standard-of-care chemotherapy in
patients with previously treated metastatic PDAC. Timing
of RASolute 302 data readout will be event-driven
after the study is fully enrolled.
- On October 23, 2024, the company reported updated clinical
safety/tolerability and efficacy data from its ongoing RMC-6236
monotherapy study at the EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium on Molecular
Targets and Cancer Therapeutics (Triple meeting) in Barcelona. As
of the July 23, 2024 data cutoff date, RMC-6236 demonstrated
compelling antitumor activity, including encouraging
progression-free survival (median 8.5 months) and overall survival
(median 14.5 months) among second-line PDAC patients with tumors
harboring a KRAS G12X mutation who received doses from 160 mg to
300 mg daily. The safety/tolerability findings were generally
consistent with previously reported data, and no new safety signals
were observed.
RMC-9805 Clinical Updates
- On October 25, 2024, the company reported initial
safety/tolerability and antitumor activity data from the RMC-9805
monotherapy dose-escalation study in patients with KRAS G12D tumors
at the Triple meeting. As of the September 2, 2024 data cutoff
date, RMC-9805 demonstrated an encouraging safety and tolerability
profile among patients treated at all dose levels and across tumor
types and showed encouraging initial antitumor activity in patients
with PDAC treated at multiple dose levels and particularly among
those who received 1200 mg once daily or 600 mg twice daily; 1200
mg once daily is a candidate recommended Phase 2 dose and
schedule.
- Evaluation of RMC-9805 in combination with RMC-6236 in a Phase
1 study is ongoing in patients with KRAS G12D solid tumors.
Beyond Pancreatic Cancer: The
company is currently evaluating its clinical-stage RAS(ON)
inhibitors as monotherapy and/or combinations in patients with
additional solid tumors carrying RAS mutations.
Upcoming Milestones
- The company plans to provide updated data from its ongoing
study of RMC-6236 monotherapy in patients with NSCLC in the fourth
quarter of 2024. The company currently expects to reach
regulatory alignment and initiate a Phase 3 registrational
study evaluating RMC-6236 as monotherapy in patients with
previously treated, advanced RAS-mutant NSCLC in the
first quarter of 2025.
- The company also plans to share initial clinical
pharmacokinetics (PK), safety/tolerability and antitumor activity
data from a combination study evaluating RMC-6236 with
pembrolizumab in the fourth quarter of 2024.
- Evaluation of the company’s RAS(ON) doublet combination of
RMC-6291 with RMC-6236 is ongoing, and the company currently
expects to disclose initial clinical PK, safety/tolerability and
antitumor activity data from this combination study in the fourth
quarter of 2024.
- The company is evaluating the combination of RMC-6291 with
pembrolizumab, with or without chemotherapy, in patients with
advanced NSCLC, and currently expects to disclose initial clinical
PK, safety/tolerability and antitumor activity data from this
combination study in the first half of 2025.
Financial Highlights
Third Quarter Results
Cash Position: Cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities were $1.55 billion as of
September 30, 2024.
R&D Expenses: Research and
development expenses were $151.8 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2024, compared to $107.7 million for the quarter
ended September 30, 2023. The increase in expense was primarily due
to increases in clinical trial expenses for RMC-6236, RMC-6291 and
RMC-9805, personnel-related expenses related to additional
headcount and stock-based compensation expense.
G&A Expenses: General and
administrative expenses were $24.0 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2024, compared to $15.5 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to increases in
personnel-related expenses associated with additional headcount,
commercial preparation activities and stock-based compensation
expense.
Net Loss: Net loss was $156.3
million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to net
loss of $108.4 million for the quarter ended September 30,
2023.
Financial GuidanceRevolution
Medicines is reiterating projected full year 2024 GAAP net loss
guidance of between $560 million and $600 million, which includes
estimated non-cash stock-based compensation expense of between $70
million and $80 million. Based on the company’s current operating
plan, the company projects current cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities can fund planned operations into 2027.
