New York, NY, USA I March 14, 2024 I Lirum Therapeutics, Inc. (“Lirum”), an innovative clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the treatment of debilitating diseases, announced today the acceptance for presentation of positive data on LX-101, a novel clinical-stage targeted therapy directed to the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (“IGF-1R”), at the 2024 European Society for Medical Oncology (“ESMO”) Sarcoma and Rare Cancers Congress being held from March 14-16 in Lugano, Switzerland.

Lirum’s data covers clinically-tested LX-101’s potent preclinical anti-tumor activity against cancers with well-established IGF-1R pathway involvement, including malignancies with known genetic alterations affecting the IGF-1R pathway and/or with high IGF-1R expression. The poster is available on the Lirum website (www.lirumtx.com) under the Investors and Media tab.

Given these promising results and the existing clinical data, Lirum is planning new clinical trials with LX-101 focused on oncologic indications, both pediatric and adult, that carry well-established ties to the IGF-1/IGF-1R pathway. Lirum is also developing LX-101 in certain autoimmune diseases, including thyroid dye disease, where IGF-1R has been clinically and commercially validated.
