On Track to Report Initial Phase 1 Data from Three Proprietary Programs in 2025

Focus on Delivering Continued Software Growth and Increased Drug Discovery Revenue

SchrĂdinger, Inc. (Nasdaq: SDGR) today provided an update on its progress across the business in 2024 and announced its strategic priorities for 2025.

“We are very proud of our accomplishments in 2024. We advanced the capabilities of our computational platform and leveraged the synergies in our business, which included signing a multi-target research collaboration and expanded software licensing agreement with Novartis. We are pleased another innovative pharmaceutical company is engaged with us through both large-scale utilization of our software and through drug discovery collaborations,” stated Ramy Farid, Ph.D., chief executive officer at SchrĂdinger. “We have a very important year ahead of us and are committed to driving growth in our software business, advancing our collaborative pipeline and reporting initial Phase 1 data from our three lead proprietary therapeutic programs.”

Additionally, today SchrĂdinger announced that it has expanded its research collaboration with Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., to add another undisclosed target to the collaboration. The terms of the expanded collaboration are consistent with the previously announced agreement.

SchrĂdinger also announced that its research collaboration with Novartis has received regulatory clearance, and SchrĂdinger expects to receive the upfront payment of $150 million from Novartis in the first quarter of 2025.

2024 Achievements Today SchrĂdinger highlighted several 2024 achievements, including the following:

Platform

  • Launched its initiative to expand the company’s computational platform to predict toxicology risk early in drug discovery, which is being funded by $19.5 million in grants from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
  • Launched LiveDesign Biologics, an informatics solution for drug discovery teams designing biologics, which builds upon the company’s existing, small molecule-focused, LiveDesign offering
  • Published 29 peer-reviewed articles in life sciences and materials science journals

Proprietary Pipeline

  • Continued to advance its Phase 1 clinical study of SGR-1505, its MALT1 inhibitor, in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphomas and its Phase 1 clinical study of SGR-2921, its CDC7 inhibitor, in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome
  • Initiated a Phase 1 clinical study of SGR-3515, its Wee1/Myt1 inhibitor, in patients with advanced solid tumors
  • Received FDA Fast Track Designation for SGR-2921 for the treatment of relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia
  • Presented preclinical data on SGR-3515, its Wee1/Myt1 inhibitor, at the EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium

Collaborators, Partners, and Co-Founded Companies

  • Announced a multi-target research collaboration and license agreement with Novartis, including a $150 million upfront payment and up to $2.3 billion in milestone payments plus royalties, as well as an expanded software licensing agreement, which substantially increases Novartis’ access to SchrĂdinger’s computational platform to industry-leading scale
