REDWOOD CITY, Calif., May 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Revolution Medicines, Inc. (Nasdaq: RVMD), a clinical-stage oncology company developing targeted therapies for RAS-addicted cancers, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, and provided an update on corporate progress.

“Revolution Medicines is off to a strong start in 2023 by reporting encouraging preliminary findings of antitumor activity and safety/tolerability in our Phase 1/1b study of RMC-6236, a first-in-class RAS^MULTI(ON) inhibitor,” said Mark A. Goldsmith, M.D., Ph.D., chief executive officer and chairman of Revolution Medicines. “The promising early clinical data we shared in our February earnings update serve as important initial validation of the drug candidate’s novel mechanism of action and potential clinical utility for treating a range of RAS-addicted cancers. We also view these data as platform validation with positive implications across our deep and pioneering portfolio of RAS(ON) Inhibitors.

“Our successful public equity offering in March raised gross proceeds of $345 million, reinforcing our financial position and enabling us to consider additional near-term and longer-term investments to strengthen clinical advancement of our first wave of RAS(ON) Inhibitors. We are continuing dose-escalation of RMC-6236 and RMC-6291 and working to bring RMC-9805 into the clinic. We are also laying the groundwork for advanced development of RMC-6236 by strengthening senior leadership across late-stage development, manufacturing, and commercial planning and expanding clinical supply to enable seamless program progression.”

Clinical and Development Highlights

RAS(ON) Inhibitors

RMC-6236 (RAS^MULTI)
RMC-6236 is an oral, selective, first-in-class RAS(ON) Inhibitor designed to treat patients with cancers driven by a wide range of common RAS mutations. Initially being evaluated as monotherapy, it may also be deployed as a RAS Companion Inhibitor in combination with mutant-selective RAS(ON) Inhibitors and in other combination treatment strategies.

• The company presented early findings from its Phase 1/1b monotherapy trial (NCT05379985) during its Q4 earnings call. This multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation and dose-expansion study is evaluating RMC-6236 in patients with advanced solid tumors harboring KRAS^G12X mutations. The data provide preliminary, promising evidence of anti-tumor activity at generally well tolerated dose levels. A maximum tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose have not yet been reached and dose escalation above 160 mg per day dose is ongoing.
  
  
• The company currently plans to provide further evidence of first-in-class single agent activity from the ongoing study in mid-2023, with multiple updates this year through a combination of corporate and scientific meeting presentations beginning in Q3.
  

RMC-6291 (KRAS^G12C)
RMC-6291, an oral, selective, covalent inhibitor of KRAS^G12C(ON) designed to treat patients with cancers driven by the KRAS^G12C mutant, is the first of the company’s mutant-selective RAS(ON) Inhibitors to enter clinical development and the first reported clinical-stage inhibitor of KRAS^G12C that uses a highly differentiated mechanism of action.

• The ongoing Phase 1/1b monotherapy trial (NCT05462717) is a multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation and dose-expansion study of RMC-6291 in patients with advanced KRAS^G12C mutant solid tumors. Early findings have shown that RMC-6291 is orally bioavailable, has exhibited pharmacokinetics consistent with preclinical findings, is generally well tolerated and is in a pharmacologically active range.  
  
  
• In April 2023, RMC-6291 was featured in the “New Drugs on the Horizon” session at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) 2023 Annual Meeting. The presentation provided the first disclosure of its chemical structure and demonstrated that RMC-6291 drove deep and durable tumor regressions in a preclinical model of NSCLC brain metastasis.
  
  
• The company currently plans to provide a preliminary report of the clinical profile for RMC-6291 in the second half of 2023.
  

RMC-9805 (KRAS^G12D)
RMC-9805 is an oral, selective, covalent inhibitor of KRAS^G12D(ON), the most common driver of RAS-addicted human cancers, predominantly among patients with pancreatic cancer, NSCLC, or colorectal cancer (CRC). The company believes RMC-9805 is the first oral and covalent inhibitor of KRAS^G12D.

• The company presented preclinical data on RMC-9805 at the AACR 2023 Annual Meeting, which demonstrated that inhibiting KRAS^G12D signaling in cancer cells can sensitize pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma tumors to immunotherapy.
  
  
• The company currently expects to announce dosing of the first patient in a monotherapy dose-escalation study of RMC-9805 in mid-2023.
  

RAS Innovation Engine
Beyond this first wave of RAS(ON) Inhibitors, the company continues expanding its pipeline of investigational RAS(ON) Inhibitor candidates.

• RMC-0708 is a potent, oral, selective, first-in-class non-covalent inhibitor of the KRAS^Q61H(ON) cancer variant. KRAS^Q61H is found in lung cancer, CRC, pancreatic cancer, and multiple myeloma. RMC-0708 is the company’s first mutant-selective RAS(ON) Inhibitor drug candidate to engage its RAS target non-covalently. The company presented preclinical data on RMC-0708 at the AACR 2023 Annual Meeting, which demonstrated the compound drove tumor regressions in various preclinical models of human KRAS^Q61H tumors.
  
  
• RMC-8839 is a potent, oral, and selective inhibitor of KRAS^G13C(ON). The company believes RMC-8839 is the first compound to selectively inhibit KRAS^G13C, an important therapeutic target primarily for NSCLC and select CRC patients unserved by a targeted RAS inhibitor.
  
  
• The company continues drug discovery efforts in RAS(ON) Inhibitor pipeline expansion programs focused on RAS mutation hotspots including KRAS^G12R, KRAS^G12V, KRAS^G13D, RAS^Q61X, and other important targets.
  

RAS Companion Inhibitors

RMC-4630 (SHP2)
RMC-4630 is a clinical-stage, oral inhibitor of SHP2, which contributes to tumor survival and growth in many RAS-addicted cancers. While currently being evaluated in combination with sotorasib, RMC-4630 is also under consideration for combination studies with other RAS inhibitors.

RMC-4630 and KRAS^G12C Inhibitor Lumakras™ (sotorasib)

• Revolution Medicines continues conducting its global Phase 2 trial RMC-4630-03 (NCT05054725), a multicenter, open-label study of RMC-4630 in combination with sotorasib for patients with NSCLC with a KRAS^G12C mutation who have failed prior standard therapy and who have not previously been treated with a KRAS^G12C inhibitor. The company is conducting the trial in collaboration with Amgen, which is supplying sotorasib to trial sites globally. The study is fully enrolled, and Revolution Medicines is on track to provide topline data from this study in the second half of 2023.
  

RMC-5552 (mTORC1/4EPB1)
RMC-5552 is a first-in-class, bi-steric mTORC1-selective inhibitor designed to suppress phosphorylation and inactivation of 4EBP1 in cancers with hyperactive mTORC1 signaling, including certain RAS-addicted cancers. The company aims to combine RMC-5552 with RAS(ON) Inhibitors in patients with cancers harboring RAS/mTOR pathway co-mutations.

• Dose optimization continues in the company’s ongoing multicenter, open-label, Phase 1/1b dose-escalation study evaluating RMC-5552 monotherapy in patients with refractory solid tumors (NCT04774952).
  
  
• The company currently anticipates disclosing additional evidence of single agent activity for this compound in Q4 2023.
