(Nasdaq: ZNTL), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing clinically differentiated small molecule therapeutics targeting fundamental biological pathways of cancers, today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, and highlighted recent corporate accomplishments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe that azenosertib has the potential to benefit large numbers of patients who are facing difficult-to-treat cancers. As a result, our highest priority remains the successful execution of our development strategy for this promising therapeutic,\u201d said Kimberly Blackwell, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Zentalis. \u201cWe began the year by initiating enrollment in our Pfizer-partnered clinical trial combining azenosertib with the BEACON regimen in BRAF V600E mutant metastatic colorectal cancer. At AACR in April, we presented preclinical data supporting the use of CCNE1 amplification and\/or Cyclin E1 expression as a potential marker for the enrichment of patient populations for treatment with azenosertib. We are driving toward two additional milestones for azenosertib in the first half of the year \u2013 disclosing our monotherapy dose, and sharing positive clinical data from our chemotherapy combination trial in ovarian cancer at ASCO in June.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Company also announced the appointment of Diana Hausman, M.D., to the Board of Directors. \u201cI share Zentalis\u2019 passion and commitment to developing therapeutics for difficult-to-treat cancers,\u201d said Dr. Hausman. \u201cI believe azenosertib has the potential to be a game-changing therapeutic for cancer patients, and I look forward to working with the other members of the Board and the Zentalis management team to help the Company achieve its goals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong><br \/>\n          <u>WEE1 Inhibitor (Azenosertib) Program Highlights<\/u><br \/>\n        <\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n          <strong>On track to announce monotherapy dose in first half 2023<\/strong>.

The Company believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of March 31, 2023 will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the second quarter of 2025. <\/li>\n<li>\n          <strong>Research and Development Expenses<\/strong>: Research and development (R&amp;D) expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 were $48.6 million, compared to $46.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase of $2.5 million was primarily due to a $3.2 million increase in overhead allocations driven by an operating lease impairment charge, and an increase of $1.9 million in personnel costs. These increases were partially offset by a $1.8 million decrease in clinical trial-related costs and $0.8 million in decreased collaborative costs.<\/li>\n<li>\n          <strong>General and Administrative Expenses<\/strong>: General and administrative (G&amp;A) expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 were $16.4 million, compared to $11.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase of $4.6 million was primarily attributable to a $5.0 million operating lease impairment charge and a $3.0 million increase in personnel costs, of which $2.7 million was non-cash stock-based compensation. These increases were partially offset by $3.1 million related to the allocation of overhead expenditures, and net reductions in outside services and supplies of $0.3 million.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Azenosertib <\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Zentalis\u2019 azenosertib (ZN-c3) has been designed to be a highly potent and selective WEE1 inhibitor.\u00a0Azenosertib is currently being evaluated in the clinic for advanced solid tumors and hematological malignancies in the following three therapeutic settings of high unmet medical need: (1) as a monotherapy, (2) in combination with traditional chemotherapy and DNA damaging agents, and (3) in combination with molecularly targeted agents. As a monotherapy, azenosertib is currently being evaluated in a Phase 2 clinical trial in adult women with uterine serous carcinoma (USC), an aggressive form of endometrial cancer that accounts for approximately 10-15% of all endometrial cancers. We are also evaluating azenosertib as a monotherapy in a Phase 2 clinical trial in patients with Cyclin E1 driven high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). The Company is evaluating azenosertib as a monotherapy in a Phase 1 dose optimization clinical trial in patients with advanced solid tumors, and plans to disclose the monotherapy dose and provide an update on dose optimization activities in the first half of 2023. In chemotherapy combinations, azenosertib is currently being evaluated in combination with each of paclitaxel, carboplatin, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) and gemcitabine in four cohorts in a Phase 1b clinical trial in patients with advanced platinum-resistant ovarian, peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer. The Company plans to disclose results from this study in the first half of 2023, in advance of original guidance. Azenosertib is also currently being evaluated in combination with gemcitabine in a Phase 1\/2 clinical trial in adult and pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory osteosarcoma. In combination with molecularly targeted agents, the Company is studying azenosertib in combination with GlaxoSmithKline plc&#8217;s (GSK\u2019s) PARP inhibitor, niraparib (ZEJULA<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>), in a Phase 1\/2 clinical trial in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer patients who have failed PARP inhibitor maintenance treatment as part of a clinical collaboration with GSK. The Company is also collaborating with Pfizer Inc. to evaluate azenosertib in combination with encorafenib and cetuximab, an FDA-approved standard of care known as the BEACON regimen, in patients with BRAF V600E mutant metastatic colorectal cancer in a Phase 1\/2 clinical trial.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Zentalis Pharmaceuticals<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Zentalis<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing small molecule therapeutics targeting fundamental biological pathways of cancers.
