New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - August 19, 2025) - OS Therapies Inc. (NYSE American: OSTX) ("OS Therapies" or "the Company"), a clinical-stage cancer immunotherapy and antibody drug conjugate biotechnology company, today reported second quarter 2025 financial results ended June 30, 2025 and provided a business update.

"The Company gained significant momentum in the second quarter as we began to make meaningful clinical and regulatory progress on our path towards bringing the first new treatment for osteosarcoma to market in the United States in the last 40 years," said Paul Romness, MPH, Chairman & CEO of OS Therapies. "Now midway through the third quarter, we have updated interim 2-year overall survival data readout that shows a statistically significant benefit for OST-HER2 treated patients, coupled with the final 12-month Event Free Survival ("EFS") that also shows statistically significant benefit for OST-HER2 treated patients, from our Phase 2b trial of OST-HER2 in the prevention or delay of recurrence in recurrent, fully resected, pulmonary metastatic osteosarcoma. The congruence between the overall survival and EFS data gives our clinical and regulatory teams confidence that we are on strong footing as we march towards our goal of receiving a Biologics Licensing Application ("BLA") by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") for OST-HER2 under the Accelerated Approval Program ("Accelerated Approval"). Importantly, our U.S. commercial partnership with Eversana positions us to be able to bring OST-HER2 to osteosarcoma patients in the first half of 2026."

Mr. Romness continued, "So long as we receive a BLA for OST-HER2 prior to September 30, 2026, the Company is eligible to be granted a priority review voucher ("PRV"), as a result of OST-HER2's rare pediatric disease designation, that it intends to subsequently sell. Given that the most recent publicly disclosed PRV sale transaction was valued at $160 million in June 2025 versus a May 2025 PRV transaction that was valued at $155 million, we believe that the PRV market is likely to continue to see an increase in value moving forward."

"Additionally, we have made progress internationally with our recent Innovative Licensing and Access Pathway ("ILAP") submission, which formally begins the regulatory process for OST-HER2 with the United Kingdom's Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency ("MHRA") following a successful Scientific Advice Meeting ("SAM"), during which we were advised that MHRA recommends a synchronization of the approval process with the FDA via Project Orbis within 30 days of the BLA submission. We have also scheduled an October 2025 rapporteur meeting with the European Medicines Agency ("EMA") as the starting point for the approval process with Europe," noted Mr. Romness.

Second Quarter 2025 Corporate Highlights:

  • Reported final EFS data (35% vs. 20%, p = 0.0197) showing a statistically significant benefit from the Company's 40 patient Phase 2b clinical trial for OST-HER2-treated patients in the prevention or delay of recurrent, fully resected, pulmonary metastatic osteosarcoma when compared with historical control at MIB Factor
  • Strong safety profile with 0 patients having experienced grade 4 or grade 5 treatment-associated adverse events
  • Entered into osteosarcoma U.S. commercial partnership with Eversana and initiated logistics and distribution state licensing process to support an expected launch in the first half of 2026
  • Granted new U.S. Patent & Trademark Office patent providing exclusivity for the new commercial manufacturing process for the listeria cancer immunotherapy platform through 2040
  • Submitted International Nonproprietary Name request to World Health Organization for OST-HER2 in preparation for international regulatory approvals, with approved name(s) expected in the third quarter of 2025 and final branded name upon BLA submission
  • Completed acquisition of the listeria cancer immunotherapy platform from Ayala Pharmaceuticals, including 4 clinical-stage and 8 preclinical-stage immunotherapy candidates, significantly expanding the Company's pipeline
  • Formed subsidiary OS Animal Health to further strategic alternatives for the use of OST-HER2 in canine osteosarcoma following the announcement of positive data from canine osteosarcoma trials conducted at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine, expanding the potential uses of OST-HER2 beyond osteosarcoma metastasis prevention to include the prevention of amputation and control of pulmonary metastases

The Company recorded a net operating loss of $4.537 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared with a net operating loss of $1.557 million in the second quarter of 2024.

OST-HER2 has received Rare Pediatric Disease Designation (RPDD) from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration and Fast-Track and Orphan Drug designations from the U.S. FDA and European Medicines Agency. The Company reported positive data in its Phase 2b clinical trial of OST-HER2 in recurrent, fully resected, lung metastatic osteosarcoma, demonstrating statistically significant benefit in the 12-month event free survival (EFS) primary endpoint of the study. The Company anticipates submitting a Biologics Licensing Application (BLA) to the U.S. FDA for OST-HER2 in osteosarcoma in 2025 and, if approved, would become eligible to receive a Priority Review Voucher that it could then sell. OST-HER2 has completed a Phase 1 clinical study primarily in breast cancer patients, in addition to showing preclinical efficacy data in various models of breast cancer. OST-HER2 has been conditionally approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for the treatment of canines with osteosarcoma.
