Shattuck Labs Reports First Quarter 2023 Financial Results and Recent Business Highlights

— Complete data from Phase 1A clinical trial of SL-172154 as monotherapy in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC) to be presented at the 2023 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) annual meeting in June –

— Dosed first patients in Phase 1B clinical trial of SL-172154 in combination with mirvetuximab soravtansine in PROC, initial data expected in the second half of 2023

— Enrollment in dose-escalation portion of the Phase 1A/B clinical trial of SL-172154 in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (HR-MDS) expected to be complete in the second quarter; complete dose escalation and initial frontline expansion cohort data expected in the second half of 2023

— Initial data from the Phase 1B clinical trial of SL-172154 in combination with liposomal doxorubicin in PROC expected midyear 2023

AUSTIN, TX and DURHAM, NC, May 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Shattuck Labs, Inc. (Shattuck) (NASDAQ: STTK), a clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering the development of bi-functional fusion proteins as a new class of biologic medicine for the treatment of patients with cancer and autoimmune disease, today reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, and provided recent business highlights.

“As a result of steady clinical progress through the first quarter of 2023, key efficacy readouts from our ongoing clinical trials for SL-172154 in PROC and AML/HR-MDS are expected midyear and in the second half of 2023, respectively. Additionally, our poster presentation at ASCO next month will provide further context for our selection of 3 mg/kg which we believe to be the optimal dose to move into combination trials with liposomal doxorubicin in patients with PROC. We are further encouraged by ImmunoGen’s positive Phase 3 confirmatory MIRASOL trial last week, and our clinical trial of SL-172154 in combination with mirvetuximab soravtansine is also proceeding nicely,” commented Taylor Schreiber, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Shattuck. “I am also pleased to report that the dose-escalation portion of our Phase 1 trial in AML/HR-MDS has enrolled very well, and we expect to complete enrollment in that portion of the study in the second quarter. We then plan to proceed immediately to the frontline expansion cohorts in HR-MDS and TP53 mutant AML and to share initial data from those cohorts in the second half of the year. We expect that the data both from the dose-escalation and expansion portions of this trial will help inform what benefit SL-172154 may provide beyond azacitidine alone.”

First Quarter 2023 Recent Business Highlights and Other Recent Developments

ARC Clinical-Stage Pipeline

SL-172154 (SIRPα-Fc-CD40L)

  • Presenting Complete Dose-Escalation Data from Phase 1A Monotherapy Clinical Trial of SL-172154 in PROC at 2023 ASCO Annual Meeting: This open-label, multi-center, dose-escalation clinical trial evaluated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, anti-tumor activity, and pharmacodynamic effects of SL-172154 administered intravenously in patients with PROC. Dose escalation reached a maximum administered dose of 10 mg/kg.
  • Enrollment Progressing in Ongoing Phase 1A/B Clinical Trial in AML and HR-MDS: This trial is evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, anti-tumor activity, and pharmacodynamic effects of SL-172154 as both monotherapy and in combination. In the dose-escalation portion of this trial, enrollment is complete in the monotherapy cohorts through 6 mg/kg, and in the combination cohorts, in combination with azacitidine, through 3 mg/kg. To date, SL-172154, both alone and in combination, has an acceptable safety profile. The final dose-escalation cohort of SL-172154 at 6 mg/kg in combination with azacitidine is expected to complete enrollment in the second quarter. The trial will then evaluate SL-172154 in combination with azacitidine in an expansion cohort in frontline HR-MDS patients and a second expansion cohort in frontline TP53 mutant AML patients. Both expansion cohorts are expected to begin enrollment in the third quarter of 2023, and we now expect to complete enrollment in both expansion cohorts during the second half of 2023. We expect to share full dose-escalation data and initial data from the frontline expansion cohorts in the second half of 2023.
  • Enrollment Progressing in Phase 1B Clinical Trial of SL-172154 in Combination with Liposomal Doxorubicin in PROC: Enrollment is continuing in this trial, which is evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, anti-tumor activity, and pharmacodynamic effects of SL-172154, using the selected dose of 3 mg/kg, in combination with liposomal doxorubicin in patients with PROC. We expect to present initial data from the trial midyear 2023.
  • Dosed First Patients in Phase 1B Clinical Trial of SL-172154 in Combination with Mirvetuximab Soravtansine in PROC. This trial is evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamic effects, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of SL-172154 administered in combination with mirvetuximab soravtansine in patients with PROC. Mirvetuximab soravtansine is an antibody-drug conjugate targeting folate receptor alpha (FRα), which provides for both direct tumor cell killing as well as enhanced macrophage phagocytosis through binding with Fc gamma receptors and has received accelerated approval for PROC patients whose tumors are shown to be FRα positive, defined as ≥75%, as determined by the VENTANA FOLR1 (FOLR1-2.1) RxDx Assay. Preclinical studies have shown that both of these killing mechanisms are complementary to the mechanism of SL-172154 by enhancing the activity of macrophages to phagocytose FRα- expressing ovarian cancer cells, and that SL-172154 may broaden the activity of mirvetuximab, particularly in patients with tumors that express lower levels of FRα. We intend to enroll patients with broader FRα expression, including those with “high” (greater than ≥75%), “medium” (≥50% to <75%), and “low” (≥25% to <50%) expression of FRα, as determined by the VENTANA FOLR1 (FOLR1-2.1). We expect to present initial data from the trial in the second half of 2023.

Gamma Delta T Cell Engager (GADLEN) Preclinical Pipeline

Preclinical Pipeline Development

  • We presented preclinical data from our GADLEN platform at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) annual meeting in April 2023 that demonstrated that the CD20-targeted GADLEN efficiently directs small numbers of human Vγ9Vδ2 T cells to serially kill greater than 99% of human B cells in a humanized mouse model. These results led to the first study of a GADLEN compound in non-human primates, where once again treatment with a CD20-targeted GADLEN directed low frequencies of endogenous Vγ9Vδ2 T cells to eliminate CD20 positive B cells with a rapid kinetic. The GADLEN compound was well tolerated in non-human primates up to the highest administered dose of 25 mg/kg, without evidence of cytokine release syndrome or other toxicities, potentially providing differentiation from CD3-directed T cell engagers.

First-Quarter 2023 Financial Results

  • Cash and Cash Equivalents and Investments: As of March 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents and investments were $135.5 million, as compared to $239.2 million as of March 31, 2022.
  • Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses were $16.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $19.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. This decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in expense associated with the manufacture of clinical trial materials to support our ongoing clinical trials.
  • General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses: G&A expenses were $5.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $5.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.
  • Net Loss: Net loss was $20.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, or $0.49 per basic and diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $24.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, or $0.58 per basic and diluted share.
