Relay Therapeutics Announces Updated Data for RLY-2608 + Fulvestrant Further Demonstrating Clinically Meaningful Progression Free Survival at ASCO 2025
Updated interim data remain consistent, showing 10.3-month median PFS overall and 11.0-month median PFS in 2L patients with PI3Kα-mutated, HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer Data continue to support planned initiation of pivotal study in mid-2025 Next-generation triplet combinations with atirmociclib (CDK4-selective) & ribociclib ongoing CAMBRIDGE, Mass., June 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Relay Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: RLAY), a clinical-stage precision medicine company transforming the drug discovery process by combining leading-edge computational and experimental technologies, today announced updated interim clinical data for RLY-2608, the first known investigational allosteric, pan-mutant and isoform-selective inhibitor of PI3Kα. The updated data have a median duration of follow-up of 12.5 months and remain consistent with data shared in December 2024. They show a median progression free survival (PFS) of 11.0 months in second line (2L) patients with PI3Kα-mutated, HR+, HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who received RLY-2608 600mg twice daily (BID) + fulvestrant. These data are being presented today at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2025 Annual Meeting. 'The treatment options for CDK4/6-experienced patients with PI3Kα mutations has not meaningfully advanced in the past 10 years and recent data disclosures and trial discontinuations highlight the level of unmet need in this population. We are encouraged by the consistency of these updated RLY-2608 + fulvestrant data, which continue to show the potential benefit of a mutant-selective PI3Kα inhibitor for improving both the tolerability profile and progression free survival compared to standard of care,' said Don Bergstrom, M.D., Ph.D., President of R&D at Relay Therapeutics. 'We look forward to starting the first mutant-selective PI3Kα Phase 3 trial, ReDiscover-2, in the middle of this year.' ReDiscover – RLY-2608 First-in-Human Study RLY-2608 is currently being evaluated in ReDiscover, an ongoing first-in-human study, which was designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and preliminary antitumor activity of RLY-2608 in combination with fulvestrant, and in combination with fulvestrant and ribociclib or atirmociclib (Pfizer's selective CDK4 inhibitor). The RLY-2608 + fulvestrant arm of the study, as of the March 26, 2025 interim data cut-off for this arm, had enrolled 118 patients with PI3Kα-mutated, HR+, HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer across all doses in both the dose escalation and dose expansion portions of the study, including 64 patients at the company's recommended Phase 3 dose (RP3D) of 600mg BID administered in the fasted state (fasted). Among these 64 patients, 31 had a kinase mutation and 33 had a non-kinase mutation. Twelve patients also had a PTEN or AKT co-mutation and were therefore excluded from the efficacy analysis, consistent with the planned pivotal population. All RLY-2608 + fulvestrant patients across doses had received a significant level of prior therapy in the advanced setting, including at least one prior endocrine therapy and at least one prior CDK4/6 inhibitor. Among the 64 patients who received the RP3D, 44% of patients (n=28) had received two or more prior lines of therapy. The RLY-2608 + atirmociclib + fulvestrant arm of the study, initiated in Q4 2024, continues to enroll patients with PI3Kα-mutated, HR+, HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer in dose escalation, as does the RLY-2608 + ribociclib + fulvestrant arm. Promising Efficacy Consistently Demonstrating mPFS Greater Than 10 Months Among the 52 RLY-2608 + fulvestrant patients who received the RP3D and did not have a PTEN or AKT co-mutation: Median follow-up was 12.5 months The median PFS was 10.3 months for all patients and 11.0 months for 2L patients For 2L patients, median PFS was 18.4 months for patients with kinase mutations and 8.5 months for patients with non-kinase mutations Clinical benefit rate (CBR) was 67% across all patients (35 of 52 CBR-evaluable patients; CBR defined as the proportion of patients with complete response, partial response or stable disease for at least 24 weeks) Among the 31 patients with measurable disease, 12 achieved a partial response (PR) (39% confirmed objective response rate, ORR) 81% of patients experienced tumor reductions (25/31) Among the 15 patients with measurable disease who had a kinase mutation, two thirds achieved a PR (67% confirmed ORR; n=10) Among the 15 patients who had received prior fulvestrant, 6 achieved a PR (40% confirmed ORR) Maintained Meaningfully Differentiated Tolerability Profile RLY-2608 + fulvestrant was generally well tolerated in the 118 patients treated across all doses as of the data cut-off date. The overall tolerability profile consisted of mostly low-grade treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) that were manageable and reversible. Safety outcomes were generally as expected across dose levels based on exposure and consistent with mutant-selective PI3Kα inhibition. Among the 64 patients who received the RP3D: The low rate of TRAE-related dose modifications allowed for 92% median dose intensity Only two patients discontinued treatment due to TRAEs (Grade 1 pruritis; Grade 1 nausea, loss of appetite) The majority of hyperglycemia was Grade 1; only two patients (3%) experienced Grade 3 hyperglycemia; no Grade 4-5 hyperglycemia Only 36% of patients experienced a Grade 3 TRAE; no Grade 4-5 TRAEs Continued Progression of Front-Line Breast Cancer Regimens Two front-line triplet regimens are being progressed – one with Pfizer's investigative selective-CDK4 inhibitor atirmociclib and one with the existing CDK4/6 standard-of-care ribociclib. Dose escalation is ongoing for both arms and both are currently at biologically active doses. Anticipated RLY-2608 Next Steps Breast Cancer: Initiate Phase 3 ReDiscover-2 (NCT06982521) study of RLY-2608 + fulvestrant in mid-2025 Continue dose escalation for additional breast cancer combination arms Vascular Malformations: Continue enrollment of Ph1/2 ReInspire study in vascular malformations The data presentation from ASCO is available on the Relay Therapeutics website in the 'Publications/Presentations' section through the following link: About RLY-2608 RLY-2608 is the lead program in Relay Therapeutics' efforts to discover and develop mutant selective inhibitors of PI3Kα, the most frequently mutated kinase in all cancers, with oncogenic mutations detected in about 14% of patients with solid tumors. RLY-2608 has the potential, if approved, to address more than 300,000 patients per year in the United States, one of the largest patient populations for a precision oncology medicine. Traditionally, the development of PI3Kα inhibitors has focused on the active, or orthosteric, site. The therapeutic index of orthosteric inhibitors is limited by the lack of clinically meaningful selectivity for mutant versus wild-type (WT) PI3Kα and off-isoform activity. Toxicity related to inhibition of WT PI3Kα and other PI3K isoforms results in sub-optimal inhibition of mutant PI3Kα with reductions in dose intensity and frequent discontinuation. The Dynamo® platform enabled the discovery of RLY-2608, the first known allosteric, pan-mutant, and isoform-selective PI3Kα inhibitor, designed to overcome these limitations. Relay Therapeutics solved the full-length cryo-EM structure of PI3Kα, performed computational long time-scale molecular dynamic simulations to elucidate conformational differences between WT and mutant PI3Kα, and leveraged these insights to support the design of RLY-2608. RLY-2608 is currently being evaluated in a first-in-human study designed to treat patients with advanced solid tumors with a PIK3CA (PI3Kα) mutation.

Relay Therapeutics, Inc. (RLAY): One of the Best Low Priced Biotech Stocks to Buy Now
We recently published a list of . In this article, we are going to take a look at where Relay Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:RLAY) stands against other best low priced biotech stocks to buy now. On May 8, Michael Yee, Senior Biotech Analyst at Jefferies, appeared on CNBC to discuss how tariffs and policy risks are pressuring the biotech industry, while simultaneously iterating that low valuations in the sector may present buying opportunities once the uncertainty clears. Talking about the broader impact of tariffs on the biotech sector, he said that the estimated tariff rate would be around 50%, while the negative EPS impact would be around -4-5%. According to Yee, the sector is facing several challenges that have caused significant pressure and anxiety among biotech investors. One of them is definitely sector-specific tariffs. The 50% estimation is a manageable impact for many of the biotech companies, but there are also other challenges being floated. Another factor is the most favored nations that could drop drug prices by as much as 40% to 50%, making it a related impact. Assuming all these impacts are going into place, there are definitely uncertain downside risks to the model. However, the takeaway is that many of these stocks are down more than 20-30% and, in fact, are trading at a decade-low P/E multiple. Therefore, while these uncertainties may be out there over the next few weeks or months, the stocks are expected to move higher after that. If we look back at some other stocks with tariffs, many are obviously higher off the bottoms. They have thus fallen to an attractive valuation, which is why there might be an opportunity to buy them.

Shedding light on the most favored nation policy, Yee said it is not new. It is also not a new concept that the US, on average, pays around 40% to 50% more for drugs as compared to the basket of other, say, five to ten major developed nations. The country also gets its drugs faster, and is the home of innovation. Many of the pharmaceutical company executives over the past few weeks pointed out that most of those countries are also facing downside issues because of R&D investments, getting the drugs years later, and obviously, the countries aren't benefiting from access to any of these drugs. However, the United States government does negotiate 15-20 drugs per year and will be doing that for the next decade. We sifted through stock screeners, financial media reports, and ETFs to compile a list of 50 low-priced biotech stocks and then chose the top 10 with the highest number of hedge fund holders as of Q4 2024.

Relay Therapeutics (RLAY): The Most Promising Penny Stock According to Analysts
We recently published a list of the . In this article, we are going to take a look at where Relay Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:RLAY) stands against other promising penny stocks. Solus' Dan Greenhaus, and Invesco's Brian Levitt together appeared on CNBC's 'Closing Bell' on April 15 to talk about tariffs, market uncertainty, and risk concerns. The discussion started with Dan Greenhaus expressing his belief that many worst-case scenarios are already priced into the market. He acknowledged that he's cautious but not overly worried. He pointed out recent events, like the exemptions on auto part imports and the 90-day delay on tariff implementation, as evidence that President Trump is listening to advisors and avoiding pushing toward extreme outcomes. Greenhaus attributed these actions to the rebound seen in the stock market. At the same time, he agreed that the administration has been rather inconsistent, in the context of Morgan Stanley's comment that investors should prepare for more inconsistencies. But he argued that many investors are assuming scenarios closer to the worst rather than the best. He emphasized that while frightening predictions about skyrocketing prices are taking over media right now, these scenarios are unlikely to materialize. Brian Levitt built on Greenhaus' optimism while acknowledging the ongoing uncertainty as well. He attributed this uncertainty to the reliance on decisions from the White House rather than traditional policy mechanisms. He compared the current situation to 2018 when markets fell 20% in a quarter before rebounding due to trade pauses and Fed intervention. He cautioned that the current S&P 500 multiples are not at recession levels so there are potential downside risks if uncertainty remains. While Levitt thinks that business investment and consumer confidence metrics show signs of prolonged volatility, Greenhaus further emphasizes that periods of heightened uncertainty often end up presenting long-term investment opportunities. He acknowledged risks such as sudden tariff increases but also encouraged investors to take advantage of these moments when risk premiums rise. We sifted through the Finviz stock screener to compile a list of the top penny stocks that were trading below $5 and had the highest analysts' upside potential (at least 40%). The stocks are ranked in ascending order of their upside potential. We have also added the hedge fund sentiment for each stock, as of Q4 2024, which was sourced from Insider Monkey's database. Note: All data was sourced on April 15. Why are we interested in the stocks that hedge funds pile into?

On March 27, Barclays reiterated its Overweight rating on the stock and maintained a 12-month stock price target of $17 per share. Interim Phase 1b data for RLY-2608 combined with fulvestrant showed an 11.4-month median progression-free survival (PFS) in second-line patients and a 39% confirmed overall response rate (ORR) in patients with measurable disease. Relay plans to initiate the Phase 3 ReDiscover-2 trial in mid-2025. Relay ended Q4 with $781.3 million in cash and investments, which is enough to continue the ongoing clinical trials. The company is prioritizing these funds to support the execution of the ReDiscover-2 Phase 3 trial. In 2024, Relay Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:RLAY) made $10 million in revenue, which was down from $25.5 million year-over-year. This decline was fueled by milestone payments from the Relay's license agreements. However, the R&D costs were lower than the previous year and reached $319.1 million in 2024. Overall, RLAY ranks 1st on our list of the most promising penny stocks according to analysts.
