Biochemical Assay KIN-2787 IC50 (nM) • KIN-2787 is an orally-available, potent and selective small ARAF 2.41 molecule pan-RAF inhibitor that inhibits Class II & III dimers, BRAF 3.46 in addition to Class I BRAF mutants BRAFV600E 1.53 RAF1 0.573

Kinase selectivity for KIN-2787 at 1000 nM across 653 was established in single dose, duplicate measurements in a radiometric • The activity of KIN-2787 was assessed in vitro and in vivo in assay (Reaction Biology Corp.). Percent inhibition is relative to DMSO control. IC50 values for RAF family kinases and selected off-targets were determined various BRAF-driven models using a 4-parameter fit model from a 10-point dose response curve performed with 3 replicates at each drug concentration.

For the evaluation of cellular potency, cells were treated with the indicated compounds for 1 hour and ERK (pERK) was measured in cell lysates using a homogenous time-resolved fluorescence assay. 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.

Conclusions

• KIN-2787 has pronounced in vitro and in vivo activity against human cancers driven by Class I, Class II and Class III BRAF

• 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 , 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
