Lumos Pharma Announces Positive End-of-Phase 2 Meeting with FDA and Reports First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Outcome from End-of-Phase 2 Meeting Supportive of a Placebo-Controlled Phase 3 Trial
Updated 12 and 24-Month Data from Phase 2 OraGrowtH210 and OraGrowtH212 Trials Continue to Show Oral LUM-201 Achieves Significant Increase in Growth from Baseline, Durable Effect to 24 Months
Company to Host Conference Call May 15, 2024 at 8:30AM ET

AUSTIN, TX, May 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Lumos Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:LUMO), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on therapeutics for rare diseases, today announced the outcome from its End-of-Phase 2 meeting with the FDA, provided a clinical programs update, and reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

“We are pleased to announce that, earlier this quarter, we had a very productive End-of-Phase 2 meeting with the FDA," said Rick Hawkins, Chairman and CEO of Lumos Pharma. "In this review, the FDA recognized LUM-201's unique mechanism as a growth hormone secretagogue and acknowledged the use of a placebo-controlled clinical trial design as an appropriate option for a LUM-201 Phase 3 trial. Based on the FDA’s feedback, we plan to move forward with a proposal for a single Phase 3 study that will be a double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial with a 2:1 randomization in approximately 150 patients. We expect to finalize design details with the FDA in the third quarter and to be in position to initiate this trial before the end of this year.”

“In addition to our encouraging engagement with the FDA, we are also very pleased to share updated data from our Phase 2 OraGrowtH trials. These data continue to show that LUM-201 produces a significant increase in growth from baseline in annualized height velocity (AHV) at 6 and 12 months in per protocol analysis. Combined data also suggest durable benefit out to 24 months.”

“We believe these developments have positioned us to advance LUM-201 toward both a Phase 3 registrational trial and potential approval of LUM-201 as the first oral therapeutic for moderate pediatric growth hormone deficiency,” Rick Hawkins concluded.

Recent Highlights

End of Phase 2 Meeting Held with FDA
FDA indicated that a placebo-controlled trial design is an appropriate option for a Phase 3 trial for LUM-201. We believe this reflects FDA’s recognition of unique qualities of LUM-201’s mechanism of action as a growth hormone secretagogue.
Proposal for a Phase 3 trial to include a 12-month double-blinded, placebo-controlled design with 2:1 randomization, ~150 patients with the placebo-controlled portion of the study lasting six months, which we believe will improve the likelihood of success when compared to a non-inferiority study.
Planning is ongoing, and the Company expects to initiate a Phase 3 trial of LUM-201 in Q4 2024, subject to FDA approval.
Updated LUM-201 Data from Combined OraGrowtH210 and OraGrowtH212 Trials


Exhibit 99.1

Additional data continue to show durable LUM-201 treatment effect to 12 and 24 months.
Full 12-month data from OraGrowtH210 demonstrated LUM-201 produces significant increase in growth from baseline with AHVs of 8.2 cm/yr (N=22) and 7.6 cm/yr (N=21) at 6 and 12 months, respectively, at the 1.6 mg/kg dose vs. 4.7 cm/yr baseline growth (N=13).*
Full 12-month data from OraGrowtH210 continued to show durable effect to 12 months for all LUM-201 cohorts and 1.6 mg/kg/day as optimal dose to advance to Phase 3.
Updated combined data from OraGrowtH210 and OraGrowtH212 trials continued to demonstrate LUM-201 AHV durable to 24 months with per protocol-24M (N=12) AHV of 8.1 cm/yr and 7.3 cm/yr at 12 and 24 months, respectively .
More moderate year-2 decline in AHV of 9.9% for LUM-201 compared to year-2 decline in AHV of 19.7% observed in historical rhGH benchmarks likely due to LUM-201 restoration of GH and IGF-1 to normal levels via amplification of physiologic pulsatile secretion of growth hormone within the natural endocrine feedback loop.
Investigational safety profile continues to be favorable.
Data from Phase 2 OraGrowtH210 and OraGrowtH212 Trials Presented at Medical Meetings in US and Europe
Pediatric Endocrinology Society (PES)
10th International Congress of the Growth Hormone Research Society (GRS)
European Congress of Endocrinology (ECE)
Data presented at these medical conferences demonstrate that by augmenting the natural pulsatile secretion of growth hormone LUM-201 produces comparable growth to injectable rhGH with significantly less exposure to circulating growth hormone.
Additional Data from Phase 2 OraGrowtH Trials to be Presented in Q2 2024
Full 12-Month OraGrowtH212 data, additional analyses of OraGrowtH210 data, and updated combined 24-month data to be presented in Q2 2024
Two abstracts accepted for poster presentation at the Endocrine Society (ENDO) Annual Meeting

*Baseline AHV data were not required for enrollment; baseline data available for N=13 subjects.

4 Summary of Milestones and Additional Phase 2 Data o Positive End-of-Phase 2 meeting with FDA supportive of registrational path forward • FDA recognized LUM-201, a growth hormone secretagogue, as a novel growth promoter • FDA acknowledged the use of a placebo-controlled clinical trial design as an appropriate option for a LUM-201 Phase 3 trial o Phase 3 initiation expected by year-end 2024 • Proposal of placebo-controlled design should improve likelihood of success o Updated OraGrowtH data corroborate prior data showing durable LUM-201 treatment effect • Significant increase in growth from baseline at 6 and 12 months on LUM-201 • LUM-201 demonstrates durability of response to 24 months Milestones & Additional OraGrowtH Trial Data


 
5 FDA End-of-Phase 2 Meeting Update Positive, constructive meeting with ~30 FDA staff in attendance Acknowledged that we are not a GH product – but a novel growth promotor Tone was collaborative and focused on approaches for a Phase 3 pivotal trial FDA suggested that a placebo-controlled Phase 3 trial design is an appropriate option for a GH secretagogue like LUM-201, subject to FDA review


 
6 Summary Topline Phase 2 Data o Topline Phase 2 data met all primary and secondary endpoints o PEM test was reproducible and predicted response to LUM-201 o Oral LUM-201 significantly increased growth rates from baseline o LUM-201 restored normal GH secretion and IGF-1 levels through increased amplitude of GH pulsatility o LUM-201 promoted growth similar to injectable rhGH with only 20% of GH concentration levels o Preliminary 24-month data demonstrated sustained growth on LUM-201 o Favorable investigational safety profile to date OraGrowtH210 and OraGrowtH212 Phase 2 Clinical Trials* * Topline data as announced November 2023. | Zadik et al Horm Res 1992, 24 hour concentrations calculated based on 12 hour measurement | Adapted from data in Albertsson- Wikland et al JCEM 1994; 24-hour exposures listed reflect absorbance/bioavailability of ~60% of the administered dose


 
7 Phase 3 Trial Design Options Discussed with the FDA Lumos Submitted Non-Inferiority Study o LUM-201 vs rhGH control o 12-month duration o Non-inferiority margin o The lower bound of non-inferiority margin must be above the clinically meaningful AHV growth rate o LUM-201 vs placebo o 12-month duration o Must show clinically meaningful growth rate above the placebo growth rate o Potential benefit for placebo arm is an important design consideration o This presumably arose from their recognition of our unique mechanism of action compared to GH FDA suggested that a placebo-controlled Phase 3 trial is an appropriate option for a GH secretagogue such as LUM-201 AHV = Annualized Height Velocity Placebo-Controlled Study
