We’re looking forward to attending the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting in Chicago on May 31st – June 4th where we will present updated study data from KB-0742-1001 for our CDK9 inhibitor KB-0742, in a poster session on June 1st. #ASCO #oncology Link to Press Release: https://bit.ly/3JydjE1

About us
Kronos Bio is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutics that target the dysregulated transcription that causes cancer and other serious diseases. At Kronos Bio, we have two molecules that have emerged from our product engine. KB-0742, our CDK9 inhibitor, is being evaluated in a phase 1/2 clinical trial as a treatment for patients with MYC-dependent tumors such as triple negative breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer and ovarian cancer, as well as patients with transcription factor fusion-driven cancers and other transcriptionally addicted cancers including chordomas, sarcomas and small cell lung cancer. Our new development candidate, KB-9558, targets the KAT domain of p300, a critical node of the IRF4 TRN, which is a core oncogenic transcription program that drives multiple myeloma. Additionally, Kronos Bio began a discovery collaboration with Genentech in January 2023. Our companies are working together to advance novel therapies against transcriptional targets in oncology.

Today at the AACR Annual Meeting in San Diego, we presented two posters from our KB-0742 (CKD9 inhibitor) and p300 KAT inhibitor programs. The first poster #1691, “p300 catalytic inhibition selectively targets IRF4 oncogenic activity in multiple myeloma” was presented during the 9:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. poster session. Link to poster: https://bit.ly/49yCvVs The second poster #CT158, “A dose escalation and cohort expansion study of the CDK9 inhibitor KB-0742 in relapsed refractory and transcriptionally addicted solid tumors” is being presented during the 1:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. poster session.

Yesterday our President and Chief Executive Officer Norbert Bischofberger, Ph.D., participated in a panel discussion on “Novel Oncology Targets” at the 44th Annual Cowen Health Care Conference. This forum provided a great opportunity for Norbert and other industry leaders to share their insights on the challenges and opportunities in drug discovery, recent innovations in the oncology space, as well as some key company updates. To check out the live audio webcast of the panel please visit the events and presentations section of the Kronos Bio website at www.kronosbio.com.

Today marks the first day of Myeloma Action Month. Multiple Myeloma is a cancer of bone marrow plasma cells, and it is the second most common blood cancer. Despite advancements in the treatment of Multiple Myeloma, there remains a significant unmet need for novel therapies. At Kronos Bio we are working diligently to progress our new development candidate, KB-9558, which targets the lysine acetyltransferase (KAT) domain of p300, a critical node of the Interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4) transcription regulatory network (TRN). IRF4 is a key driver in multiple myeloma. #MyelomaActionMonth

This week our team enjoyed a lunch and learn with Martin Larke, Senior Scientist, Computational Biology, about how we are using machine learning to understand cellular response to stress. This is an important topic in oncology research and one that is central to Kronos Bios’ development of therapeutics that target deregulated transcription. Thanks Martin for such an engaging session!

Members of the Kronos Bio team were busy this week at the 42nd annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco. We shared our progress developing therapeutics that target deregulated transcription with investors and potential partners, including the latest on our first internally discovered molecule, KB-0742, a CDK9 inhibitor, as well as our new development candidate, KB-9558, a p300 KAT inhibitor. Thanks to everyone who met with us at #JPM. We appreciate your time, interest, and insights. 2024 is off to a good start! - with Norbert Bischofberger, Barbara Kosacz, Jorge DiMartino, Christopher Dinsmore, Charles Lin, Sarah Connors, and Margaux Bennett
