Company description

Olema is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of next-generation targeted therapies for breast cancer and beyond. We are advancing our pipeline of novel therapies by leveraging our deep understanding of endocrine-driven cancers, nuclear receptors, and mechanisms of acquired resistance. Our lead product candidate, palazestrant (formerly known as OP-1250), is a novel, orally-available small molecule with dual activity as both a complete estrogen receptor (ER) antagonist (CERAN) and selective ER degrader (SERD), currently being investigated in patients with recurrent, locally advanced or metastatic ER-positive (ER+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-), breast cancer. In pre-clinical models, palazestrant binds and completely blocks ER-driven transcriptional activity in both wild-type and mutant forms of metastatic ER+ breast cancer. In clinical studies across more than 400 patients, palazestrant has demonstrated strong anti-tumor activity, attractive pharmacokinetics and prolonged drug exposure, favorable tolerability, and combinability with cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) with no significant drug-drug interaction. Based on the clinical results we have achieved to date, we are advancing palazestrant through late-stage clinical development both as a monotherapy and in combination with other targeted agents.
