Percent inhibition is relative to DMSO control. IC50 values for RAF family kinases and selected off-targets were determined various BRAF-driven cancer models using a 4-parameter fit model from a 10-point dose response curve performed with 3 replicates at each drug concentration.

The compounds were run in 10-point, 3-fold serial dilutions starting at 10,000 nM to establish EC50 values using a 4-parameter fit model. All samples were run in triplicate and represent an average of 2 or more independent experiments.

Aleksandra Franovic, Ph.D. Director, Translational Medicine | Kinnate Biopharma Inc. 6 Conclusions • KIN-2787 has pronounced in vitro and in vivo activity against human cancers driven by Class I, Class II and Class III BRAF mutations • Time- and exposure-dependent inhibition of MEK-ERK phosphorylation was achieved and accompanied by suppression of MAPK transcriptional targets at the RNA and protein level • Twice daily (BID) dosing was well-tolerated, led to prolonged target coverage / inhibition and a trend towards more frequent and deeper tumor responses in vivo • A phase 1 dose escalation and expansion clinical trial evaluating the pharmacokinetics, safety and efficacy of KIN-2787 monotherapy in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors with BRAF gene alterations is expected to initiate in 2021 Aleksandra Franovic, Ph.D.
