OS Therapies Agrees to Acquire All Listeria Monotygenes-based Immuno-Oncology Programs and IP Assets from Ayala Pharmaceuticals

“The assets being acquired from Ayala complete OS Therapeutics’ ownership of the key intellectual property underlying our listeria monocytogenes immunotherapy platform, as well as bolster our development pipeline with the addition of clinical-stage lung cancer and prostate cancer immunotherapy assets,” said Paul Romness, MHP, Chairman & CEO of OS Therapies. “Importantly, this agreement eliminates certain near-term milestone payment obligations related to OST-HER2 in osteosarcoma, projected sales milestone payments, and significantly reduces our effective royalty rate. As a result, we have enhanced both the clinical and financial prospects for the Company with minimal impact to our cash position. The elimination of these milestones payment obligations and reduction in royalties obligations significantly improves the net present value of the OST-HER2 program while also improving our negotiating position with potential partners. Taken together, this agreement bolsters our financial and partnership prospects.”
