o Selectively targets leukemic cells, sparing normal blood cells
(unaffected normal hematopoiesis)
o Promotes cell death (differential cytotoxicity on STAT5+ AML)
o Represses increased levels of anti-apoptotic proteins
and induces lineage commitment genes in undifferentiated AML cells
o Transcriptional deregulation is a hallmark of AML
o CDK8 is a kinase subunit of the Mediator complex serving as a bridge between
basal transcription and regulatory elements involved in:
⁻ Deregulation of super enhancers (SE)
⁻ Affected differentiation and pro/anti-apoptotic genes

PIM and FLT3 are oncogenes involved in AML
Dual targeting creates potential for broader activity, more durable responses than selective FLT3 inhibitors such as gilteritinib
Potential for treating patients that have relapsed on selective FLT3 inhibitors - PIM kinases are largely responsible for the development of resistance to FLT3 inhibitors

SEL24/MEN1703 Phase I data summary (EHA abstract from May 14 2020)
Results:
• As of February 11th, 2020 (cut-off date), n=25 patients were treated across 6 dose levels (25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150 mg). Median age
was 68 (range: 25-84) years. Overall, 14 (56%) and 11 (44%) patients had non de novo AML and primary refractory AML, respectively.
Patients with relapsed or untreated AML were 11 (44%) and 2 (8%), respectively. Adverse karyotype was reported in 10 (40%)
patients; FLT3-ITD was found in 5 (20%) patients. Median number of cycles was 2 (range 1-8).
• DLTs were reported in 1 patient at 25 mg (G3 hypophosphatemia), 1 patient at 125 mg (G5 fungal pneumonia) and 3 patients at 150
mg (G5 venous stroke, G3 increased transaminases and G3 increased alkaline phosphatase, respectively). Since 3 out of 4 patients at
150 mg experienced a DLT, RD was defined at 125 mg. Most frequent serious treatment-emergent AEs (serious TEAEs) were febrile
neutropenia (28%), sepsis (16%) and pneumonia (12%). Most frequent G≥3 TEAEs were neutrophil count decrease (40%), febrile
neutropenia and thrombocytopenia (32%) and anemia (24%).
• Objective responses were observed in 2 patients: one complete remission (CR) at 75 mg dose by Cycle 5
in an 81-y.o. patient with DNMT3A/IDH2 mutated AML progressed on enasidenib; one CR with incomplete
hematologic recovery (CRi) at 125 mg dose by Cycle 5 in a 75-y.o. patient with prior myelodysplastic syndrome
and ASXL1/EZH2 mutated AML relapsed after standard chemotherapy.
• PK data indicated that SEL24/MEN1703 exposure tends to increase with increasing doses in a slightly more than dose proportional
manner. Tmax was reached after 4-6 hours following drug administration and the terminal half-life was ~40 hours
• Summary/Conclusion: SEL24/MEN1703 showed an acceptable safety profile up to the RD established at
125 mg. Throughout the DE, initial evidence of efficacy was observed with 1 CR and 1 CRi in elderly patients who
had exhausted standard therapeutic options. CE in relapsed/refractory AML patients will further investigate the
single agent activity and the safety profile of SEL24/MEN1703
Unique profile: Demonstrated single agent efficacy in relapsed/refractory FLT3 negative Patients
Dose expansion planned at multiple clinical sites in the US. and in several European countries

Ryvu R&D Center for Innovative Drugs – planned move in Q2 2020

Covid-19 impact on Ryvu Therapeutics
Clinical trials:
• Industry risk: Clinical trials in locations impacted by Covid-19 such as the US has been by Covid-19 pandemic in multiple ways
(slow or suspended enrollment, difficulties in patient monitoring, delayed DRCs, etc.)
• Clinical studies provide patients suffering from life threatening disorders such as AML and hrMDS with potential new therapeutic options – risk/benefit
management policies are mainly dependent on individual site decisions
• Several SEL120 clinical sites suspended enrollment in March/April – slowly coming back on-line
• Expected impact on enrollment - ~3 months delay vs. the original plans – data availability in H1 2021 vs. Q4 2020 originally planned
Laboratory operations:
• Thanks to the early government intervention (March 12) Poland is so far one of the countries least impacted by Covid-19 in Europe
(as of June 4 total of 24 826 cases and 1117 deaths for 38 milion people, peak of infections and deaths passed in April/early May)
• Ryvu introduced the first risk Covid-19 management steps already in February and reduced laboratory operations to critical experiments
from March 30 to April 11
• Full restart of laboratory activities on April 12 with appropriate risk management
• 50% of non-lab associates work from home until the move to the new building
• Outsourcing – limited capacity at some European CROs. Key providers less impacted. Risk-management with Asian CROs.
Other industry specific risks
• Slowed-down business development (pharma demand)
• Market volatility and more difficult access to capital
33
Ryvu investment highlights and near term milestones
• Developing novel small molecule therapies that address
emerging targets in oncology
• Targeting kinases, synthetic lethality, immune response
and immuno-metabolism pathways
• Validation from strategic collaborations
• Partnership options for early stage candidates
• Limited cash burn thanks to non-dilutive grants and cost-efficient
discovery platform, significant resources located in Poland
• Potential milestone payments and royalties
from partnered programs
• Steady generation of differentiated candidates

RVU330 - best-in-class dual A2A/A2B antagonist
KEY SUCCESS FACTORSCOMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE
PLANNED INFLECTION POINTS AND MILESTONES
Dual mode of action manifesting in activity in all immune cell types, unlike competitors compounds, providing potentially more pronounced anti-tumor effect
Best-in-class potentialThe only dual A2A/A2B antagonist efficient in high adenosine tumor environment
May be efficacious in patients in which „1st wave” A2A (repositioned PD drugs) do not work
Nomination of preclinical candidate and initiation of IND enabling studies: H1 2020
Initiation of phase I clinical trials: 2021
Ryvu developed most potent, known A2A/A2B antagonist with nanomolar activity in vitro in functional immune
assays outperforming competitors
1
2
Confirmed immunostimulatory mode of action
▪ Induction of antitumor cytokine production by T cells and dendritic cells – stimulation of both innate and adaptive immunity
▪ Macrophages repolarization▪ NK cells mobilization▪ Exceptionally potent, superior to clinical competitors,
blockade of CREB phosphorylation in human whole blood assay – clinical biomarker used by most of competitors (Arcus, Corvus)
