Verastem Oncology (NASDAQ:VSTM), a biopharmaceutical company committed to advancing new medicines for patients with RAS/MAPK pathway-driven cancers, today announced preliminary, unaudited fourth quarter and full year 2025 net product revenues for AVMAPKI™ FAKZYNJA™ CO-PACK, business updates, and 2026 priorities.

"2025 was a transformative year for Verastem Oncology and the patients we serve. We transitioned to a commercial-stage company with the launch of AVMAPKI FAKZYNJA CO-PACK, the first treatment specifically approved by the FDA for KRAS-mutated recurrent low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC). We also advanced multiple clinical programs across several RAS/MAPK pathway-driven solid tumor cancers," said Dan Paterson, president and chief executive officer at Verastem Oncology. "In 2026, we are well-positioned to drive sustainable growth with our successful commercial launch and to accelerate our clinical path for VS-7375, our potential best-in-class oral KRAS G12D (ON/OFF) inhibitor, with several important data readouts and preparations for potential registration-directed clinical trials."

Financial Update¹

• Based on preliminary, unaudited results, Verastem expects AVMAPKI FAKZYNJA CO-PACK net product revenues of approximately $17.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 and approximately $30.9 million for the full year 2025. Full year 2025 net product revenue reflects the launch period of May, following U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval, through December 2025.
• The Company also announced that as of January 25, 2026 outstanding cash warrants had been exercised, netting $29.4 million. No cash exercise warrants remain outstanding.
• As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and investments (unaudited) of $205 million; on a pro forma basis, taking into consideration the net proceeds of the cash exercise warrants, cash, cash equivalents and investments were $234 million. With its ongoing product revenue, recent equity financing, and exercise of the remaining cash warrants, the Company expects its cash runway to extend into the first half of 2027.
• Given the growth trajectory of the AVMAPKI FAKZYNJA CO-PACK, Verastem anticipates the LGSOC commercial launch and development program will be self-sustaining by the second half of 2026.

2026 Priorities

In 2026, Verastem will continue to focus on maximizing the commercial launch of AVMAPKI FAKZYNJA CO-PACK while advancing its differentiated pipeline targeting RAS/MAPK-pathway driven cancers to create sustainable long-term growth:

1. AVMAPKI FAKZYNJA CO-PACK (avutometinib; defactinib) – the first treatment specifically approved by the FDA for adults with KRAS-mutated recurrent LGSOC who have received prior systemic therapy. The combination is being evaluated in an ongoing international Phase 3 trial, RAMP 301, in recurrent LGSOC with or without a KRAS mutation. The trial is fully enrolled, as of December 2025, and will serve as a confirmatory study for the initial indication and has the potential to expand the indication regardless of KRAS mutation status. The results will also be leveraged for potential geographic expansion.
   
   
   
   The Company announced today updated data from the ongoing RAMP201J Phase 2 clinical trial in Japan evaluating the combination in patients with LGSOC with or without a KRAS mutation. As of the data cutoff on January 30, 2026, 16 patients were efficacy evaluable by investigator assessment, having at least one post-baseline assessment with a median follow-up of 10 months. Of the 16 total patients, a confirmed overall response rate (ORR) of 38% (6/16) was achieved. Among patients with KRAS-mutated recurrent LGSOC, the confirmed ORR was 57% (4/7) and the disease control rate (DCR) was 100% (7/7). Among patients with KRAS wild-type recurrent LGSOC, the confirmed ORR was 22% (2/9) and the DCR was 89% (8/9). Of the 16 patients enrolled, 11 patients remain on treatment. No patients discontinued due to an adverse event. The safety profile was similar to previously reported data.
   
   
   
   Verastem expects to:
   • Maximize adoption of AVMAPKI FAKZYNJA CO-PACK in the U.S. as the treatment of choice at the earliest recurrence, leveraging its robust clinical data.
   • Report a topline readout of the primary endpoint in the RAMP 301 trial in mid-2027.
   • Continue to pursue regulatory paths for potential expansion of the product launch into Europe and Japan.
     
     
     
     
2. VS-7375 – is an investigational, highly selective and oral KRAS G12D (ON/OFF) inhibitor being evaluated in an international Phase 1/2 trial in advanced KRAS G12D solid tumors. The trial continues to enroll in both the monotherapy dose-escalation and dose-expansion cohorts and multiple dose-escalation combination cohorts in various solid tumors including colorectal cancer (CRC), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
   
   
   
   As previously reported, the Company cleared the 400, 600, and 900 mg once daily (QD) dose levels with no dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and no major toxicities. The monotherapy expansion cohorts have been initiated, and the cohort sizes have been expanded in second-line (2L) PDAC, 2L/3L NSCLC, and 2L+ tumor agnostic solid tumors, including biliary tract cancer (BTC) and endometrial cancer. The Company cleared the 400 mg QD dose in combination with cetuximab with no DLTs and is currently evaluating the 600 mg QD dose level with cetuximab. The combination dose escalation cohorts were initiated in first-line (1L) NSCLC and 2L PDAC at the end of 2025.
   
   
   
   Verastem expects to:
   • Report an interim update on the Phase 1/2 trial of VS-7375 in 1H 2026.
   • Select the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) with cetuximab and initiate the CRC combination expansion cohort in 1H 2026.
   • Engage with the FDA in 1H 2026 to discuss its development path forward, including potential registration-directed clinical trials in PDAC, NSCLC, and CRC.
   • Complete enrollment in combination dose-escalation cohorts in mid-2026.
   • Complete enrollment in monotherapy expansion cohorts in 2H 2026.
   • Select the RP2D and plan to initiate the PDAC and NSCLC combination expansion cohorts in 2H 2026.
     
     
     
     
3. Avutometinib Plus Defactinib – is being evaluated in an ongoing RAMP 205 study in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy in the front line for patients with metastatic PDAC. At the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting in 2025, the Company reported that the first 12 patients enrolled to dose level 1 (DL1) in the RAMP 205 study reported an ORR of 83% (10/12). Seventeen additional patients were enrolled in the DL1 expansion between May and August 2025, and with a minimum follow-up of approximately 4 months, the majority of these patients remain on treatment as of January 2026.
   
   
   
   Verastem expects to:
   • Report an update on the safety and efficacy of the RAMP 205 expansion cohort with at least six months of follow-up on all patients in Q2 2026.

¹The information presented above is unaudited and reflects preliminary estimates subject to the completion of financial closing procedures and any adjustments that may result from the finalization of the quarter and annual review of the Company's financial statements by external auditors. Verastem plans to report the final 4Q2025 and full year 2025 results during its fourth quarter 2025 earnings call in early March 2026.

About AVMAPKI and FAKZYNJA Combination Therapy

AVMAPKI (avutometinib) inhibits MEK kinase activity while also blocking the compensatory reactivation of MEK by upstream RAF. RAF and MEK proteins are regulators of the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK (MAPK) pathway. Blocking RAF and/or MEK activates FAK, a key mediator of drug resistance. FAKZYNJA (defactinib) is a FAK inhibitor and together, the avutometinib and defactinib combination was designed to provide a more complete blockade of the signaling that drives the growth and drug resistance of RAS/MAPK pathway-dependent tumors.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved AVMAPKI™ FAKZYNJA™ CO-PACK (avutometinib capsules; defactinib tablets) for the treatment of adult patients with KRAS-mutated recurrent LGSOC who have received prior systemic therapy on May 8, 2025. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial. Verastem is conducting RAMP 301 (GOG-3097/ENGOT-ov81/GTG-UK) (NCT06072781), an international Phase 3 confirmatory trial evaluating the combination of avutometinib and defactinib versus standard chemotherapy or hormonal therapy for the treatment of recurrent low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC) with and without a KRAS mutation. Verastem is also evaluating avutometinib plus defactinib with standard-of-care chemotherapy as a potential treatment in the first-line for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer (RAMP 205; NCT05669482). Avutometinib and defactinib are not approved by the FDA or any other regulatory authority, either in combination or with other therapies, for any of these investigative uses. Neither avutometinib nor defactinib are approved by the FDA or any other regulatory authority on a stand-alone basis for any use.
