REDWOOD CITY, Calif., April 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Biomea Fusion, Inc. (“Biomea”) (Nasdaq: BMEA), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to discovering and developing oral covalent small molecules to treat and improve the lives of patients with metabolic diseases and genetically defined cancers, today announced initial response data from the first two type 1 diabetes patients treated with BMF-219 in the ongoing Phase II study (COVALENT-112).

Key Points: 
  • “We are very excited to announce the initial response data from the first two type 1 diabetes patients enrolled in the COVALENT-112 study.
  • Both patients showed improvement in measures of beta-cell function after only 4 weeks of dosing with BMF-219.
  • The trial includes an open label portion for adults with type 1 diabetes up to 15 years since diagnosis.
  • It has been exciting to participate in this study and explore this new pathway for the benefit of our patients.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., March 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Biomea Fusion, Inc. (“Biomea”) (Nasdaq: BMEA), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to discovering and developing oral covalent small molecules to treat and improve the lives of patients with metabolic diseases and genetically defined cancers, today announced three poster presentations presenting long-term 26 week follow-up data from patients treated with BMF-219, enrolled in the escalation portion of the ongoing Phase II clinical study (COVALENT-111), at the 17th International Conference on Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes (ATTD) taking place in Florence, Italy from March 6-9, 2024. This clinical data from all dosing cohorts initiated to date as of February 12, 2024 from the Escalation Phase of COVALENT-111 will be featured during a Poster Discussion Presentation and two Poster Viewing Presentations at ATTD. Biomea will showcase the following three e-poster presentations:

Key Points: 
  • Please find a link here to our website where the poster presentations and discussion will be available.
  • A higher proportion of patients treated with 200mg QD achieved a clinically significant reduction in HbA1c compared to 100mg QD dosing.
  • A durable glycemic response (≥1.0% HbA1C reduction) was seen in 20% and 36% of patients in once daily 100 mg and 200 mg cohorts, respectively.
  • A PK study further assessing the optimal use of BMF-219 to ensure minimal variability of exposure is currently under way.

Saturday, December 9, 2023

At Week 26, 22 weeks after the last dose of BMF-219, the 200 mg cohorts increased the percentage of patients to approximately 40% with durable HbA1c reduction of 1% or more as compared to the 100 mg cohorts which reported earlier as 20%.

Key Points: 
  • At Week 26, 22 weeks after the last dose of BMF-219, the 200 mg cohorts increased the percentage of patients to approximately 40% with durable HbA1c reduction of 1% or more as compared to the 100 mg cohorts which reported earlier as 20%.
  • As presented at the conference, we have shown for the first time the long-term follow-up data of our 100 mg patient cohorts.
  • By increasing the dose from 100 mg to 200 mg, we are excited about nearly doubling the percentage of patients treated with BMF-219 having a robust HbA1c reduction of 1% or more, 22 weeks after the last dose.
  • Phase II consists of multiple ascending dose (MAD) cohorts and includes adult patients with type 2 diabetes uncontrolled by current therapies.

(“Biomea”) (Nasdaq: BMEA), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to discovering and developing novel covalent small molecules to treat and improve the lives of patients with genetically defined cancers and metabolic diseases, today announced the poster presentation of long-term 26 weeks follow-up data from the first two cohorts of adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) enrolled in the ongoing Phase II clinical study (COVALENT-111) and data from preclinical ex-vivo human islet experiments of BMF-219, the company’s investigational oral covalent menin inhibitor.

Key Points: 
  • “Our goal with BMF-219 is to create a short-term treatment regimen for patients with diabetes that results in long term glycemic control.
  • These early clinical results of improved glycemic control over time while patients are off treatment have been very impressive.
  • Phase II consists of multiple ascending dose (MAD) cohorts and includes adult patients with type 2 diabetes uncontrolled by current therapies.
  • Additional information about the Phase I/II clinical trial of BMF-219 in type 2 diabetes can be found at ClinicalTrials.gov using the identifier NCT05731544.
