OS Therapies Submits Request for Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) Designation to U.S. FDA for OST-HER2 in the Prevention of Metastases in Recurrent, Fully-Resected, Lung Metastatic Pediatric Osteosarcoma
If awarded, OST-HER2 would become the first listeria investigational medicinal product to be awarded the RMAT designation
RMAT designation reduces BLA application review time and permits augmented interactions with FDA to inform market access
NEW YORK, June 06, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OS Therapies Inc. (NYSE-A: OSTX) ("OS Therapies" or "the Company"), a clinical-stage cancer immunotherapy and antibody drug conjugate biotechnology company, today announced it has submitted a request for Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) Designation to U.S. FDA for OST-HER2 in the prevention of metastases in recurrent, fully-resected, lung metastatic pediatric osteosarcoma. RMAT designations are granted to sponsors with regenerative medicine therapies for serious or life-threatening conditions and provide sponsors with various benefits, including eligibility for an accelerated Biologics License Application (BLA) review.
OST-HER2 has already received Rare Pediatric Disease Designation (RPDD), Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) and Fast Track Designation (FTD) for osteosarcoma from the U.S. FDA. If OST-HER2 receives a conditional BLA via Accelerated Review prior to September 30, 2026, the Company will become eligible to receive a Priority Review Voucher (PRV) that it intends to immediately sell. The most recent publicly disclosed PRV sale, valued at $155 million, occurred in May 2025.
The Company is awaiting feedback by mid-June 2025 from a Type D meeting with FDA regarding the statistical analysis plan to be used in an End of Phase 2 meeting for OST-HER2 in the prevention of metastases in recurrent, fully-resected, lung metastatic pediatric osteosarcoma. Upon receipt of the Type D Meeting feedback, the Company intends to promptly request the End of Phase 2 meeting with FDA in which it will be seek agreement to allow it to begin a rolling BLA submission in the third quarter of 2025. The grant of the RMAT designation in the third quarter of 2025 complements the company's parallel efforts in other major markets, including Europe and the United Kingdom, where the company plans to seek EMA PRIME Designation and Conditional Market Access (CMA) applications.
In parallel to regulatory engagement and market access planning for OST-HER2, the Company is preparing for the late stage clinical development of other pipeline candidates. As such, the Company is well positioned for sustained growth across multiple therapeutic modalities.

Salmonella recall of 20 million eggs from Walmart, Safeway, Ralphs, among others
Another salmonella outbreak caused the recall of 1.7 million dozen eggs — meaning roughly more than 20 million less eggs to fry — and has sickened people in seven states. The aforementioned eggs were distributed to Walmart, Safeway, chains owned by Kroger and various other independent and chain supermarkets. Hilmar, California's August Egg Company, a division of Gemperle Enterprises, produced the eggs and issued the recall Friday. 'August Egg Company is not selling fresh shell eggs at this time,' the company-written, FDA-posted recall notice said. 'Our firm has voluntarily been diverting eggs to an egg-breaking plant for over 30 days, which pasteurizes the eggs and kills any potential foodborne pathogens.' READ MORE: Public health alert: Deadly E. coli found in beef sent to Whole Foods stores What eggs have been recalled? Packaging for the recalled eggs will have plant code P-6562 or CA5330 with the Julian Dates between 32 to 126. The eggs that went to Walmart stores had sell by dates from March 4 through June 19. Other retailers got eggs with 'sell by dates' from March 4 through June 4. August Egg says these eggs went to stores in California, Washington, Illinois, Nevada, Arizona, Wyoming, New Mexico, Nebraska, and Indiana. The recall section of Walmart's website says this also involves its stores in Alaska, Colorado, Hawaii, Iowa, Idaho, Kansas, Michigan, Montana, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas and Wisconsin. ▪ Marketside (a Walmart store brand): Organic Large Cage Free Brown Eggs in cartons of 12 and 18; Large Cage Free Brown Eggs in cartons of 12 and 18. ▪ First Street (a Smart & Final house brand): Cage Free Large Brown loose eggs. ▪ Clover: Organic Large Brown Eggs, one dozen. ▪ Nulaid: One dozen Medium Brown Cage Free, one dozen Jumbo Brown Cage Free. ▪ O Organics: Cage Free Large Brown, six eggs; and Large Brown, 12 and 18 eggs. This brand will be found at Safeway and other Albertson's-owned stores. ▪ Raley's (store brand): Large Cage Free Brown, 12 eggs: Organic Large Cage Free Brown, 12 and 18 eggs. ▪ Simple Truth: Cage Free Large Brown and Medium Brown 18 eggs. This brand will be found at Food 4 Less, Ralphs and other Kroger-owned chains. ▪ Sun Harvest: Organic Large Cage Free Brown Eggs in cartons of 12 and 18. ▪ Sunnyside: Organic Large Cage Free Brown Eggs in cartons of 12 and 18; and Large Cage Free Brown Eggs in cartons of 12 and 18. What's up with the salmonella outbreak? Saturday's outbreak update from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says 79 people have been sickened in this outbreak with 21 hospitalizations. Of those 79, 63 are in California. The remaining 16 break down as Nevada and Washington (four each); Arizona, three; Nebraska and New Jersey (two each); and Kentucky, one. Salmonella outbreaks tend to be very undercounted because most people recover without medical attention. What is salmonella? The CDC estimates about 1.35 million people in the United States will get salmonella each year. Of that number, 26,400 will be hospitalized, usually driven to the hospital by bloody diarrhea, and 420 will die. Usually, salmonella just means a few days of diarrhea, vomiting, fever and stomachaches. What you should do now If you have any of the recalled eggs listed above, return them to the store for a refund or throw them deep into the garbage. If you have any questions about the recalls, call August Farms at 800-710-2554, noon to 8 p.m., Eastern time.

These Popular Eggs Are Being Recalled Over Salmonella Risk
If you've been living for your morning sunny-side eggs…well, brace yourself. The August Egg Company—the parent behind Sunnyside, Clover, Raley's, and a few other brands—is recalling a whopping 1.7 million dozen eggs due to a potential salmonella outbreak. Yep, it's serious.. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have flagged the August Company's 'brown cage-free and brown certified organic egg' for possible contamination, meaning you might want to double-check that carton in your fridge before cracking it open. If you didn't know, Salmonella is that sneaky bacteria behind food poisoning and can cause anything from mild stomach upset to serious illness. These eggs were shipped to Walmart stores and other grocers in nine states: California, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, Wyoming, New Mexico, Nebraska, Indiana, and Illinois. They have a best-by date from March 4 to June 19 and food codes P-6562 or CA5330. Not sure if your eggs are on the list? The FDA has a full rundown of all the recalled brands you can check out. And if the cartons in your fridge match any of the food codes or best-by-dates, toss them out immediately. While it's somewhat okay to eat an egg past its expiration date, this isn't the case. The FDA has already connected a current salmonella outbreak to the eggs. As of now, a total of 79 cases have been reported in seven states, while 21 people have been hospitalized. We get it: eggs are pricey, and tossing them feels like a waste. But don't risk it. Plus, most places will give you a full refund. And if your eggs touched any surfaces, wipe those down like your life depends on it. If after eating you feel dizzy, nauseous, or get a fever—don't play it cool. Call your doctor. This is serious business. Trust me, as a four-time survivor of food poisoning, you don't want to take any chances.
