AS-0015 has demonstrated comparable to greater in vivo antitumor activity at doses which are approximately one-tenth to one-eighth of the dose of the leading pan-RAS molecular glue. The initial clinical trial for ERAS-0015 will be AURORAS-1, for which we plan to file an investigational new drug application (IND) in mid-Q2 2025, with an anticipated Phase 1 monotherapy data readout in 2026.

ERAS-4001 is a potential first-in-class pan-KRAS inhibitor in development for the treatment of patients with KRAS-altered solid tumors. The preclinical in vitro potency of ERAS-4001 showed good activity against KRAS G12X mutations, as well as KRAS wildtype amplifications, with no activity observed against HRAS or NRAS wildtype proteins. We believe sparing wild-type HRAS and NRAS has the potential to provide a wider therapeutic window. ERAS-4001 demonstrated activity against both GDP-bound (“inactive state”) and GTP-bound (“active state”) KRAS G12D with single digit nanomolar IC50s in a biochemical RAS – RAF1 RBD (RAS Binding Domain) assay. In vivo, ERAS-4001 showed good tumor regression in multiple models. In combination with anti-PD-1, ERAS-4001 was able to achieve complete disappearance of tumors in mice on day 31. The initial clinical trial for ERAS-4001 will be BOREALIS-1, for which we plan to file an IND in the second quarter of 2025, with an anticipated Phase 1 monotherapy data readout in 2026.

We believe ERAS-0015 has the potential to address unmet medical needs in approximately 2.7 million patients who are diagnosed annually worldwide with RAS-mutant tumors, including the more than 2.2 million patients with KRAS-mutant tumors that ERAS-4001 could also address.

Our next program is ERAS-12, our investigational EGFR D2/D3 biparatopic antibody (bpAb). ERAS-12 is a potential best-in-class biologic that is designed to inhibit EGFR through the combination of multiple proposed mechanisms of action. In tumors where EGFR signaling is thought to be a primary driver of tumor growth, an antibody-based approach has been shown to be an effective way to target the receptor. However, all approved anti-EGFR antibodies target domain III
