Today Announced Agreement with Roche to Evaluate SY-5609 in Combination with Immunotherapy in BRAF-Mutant Colorectal Cancer Patients
Additional Dose Escalation Data for SY-5609 to be Highlighted in Oral Presentation at ESMO Congress; On Track to Advance into Phase 1 Expansion in 2H 2021
On Track to Initiate SELECT-AML-1 Randomized Phase 2 Trial of Tamibarotene in AML and Dose Confirmation Study for SY-2101 in APL in 2H 2021
Management to Host Conference Call at 8:30 a.m. ET Today
Syros Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:SYRS), a leader in the development of medicines that control the expression of genes, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, and provided an update on recent accomplishments and upcoming events.
“As Syros advances toward becoming a commercial-stage company, we are focused on execution across our growing portfolios in targeted hematology and selective CDK inhibition and made great strides in the second quarter,” said Nancy Simonian, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Syros. “As announced today, we entered into an agreement with Roche to explore SY-5609 in combination with atezolizumab in colorectal cancer patients, marking the first clinical investigation of a selective CDK7 inhibitor with immunotherapy. Additionally, data from the Phase 1 dose-escalation trial of SY-5609 has been selected for an oral presentation at the ESMO Congress in September, at which time we plan to detail next steps for advancing the development of SY-5609 to further explore its potential as a novel targeted approach for difficult-to-treat cancers.”
Dr. Simonian continued, “We also continued to progress our targeted hematology portfolio with the ongoing SELECT-MDS-1 Phase 3 trial of tamibarotene in RARA-positive higher-risk MDS patients, as well as the SELECT-AML-1 randomized Phase 2 study of tamibarotene in RARA-positive unfit AML patients and our dose confirmation study of SY-2101 in APL patients, both of which are on track to start in the second half of this year. As we advance these programs through the clinic, we are engaging more deeply with the clinical community to realize the potential of tamibarotene and SY-2101 to address high unmet needs and set new standards of care in these targeted patient populations.”
Syros recently hosted a three-part key opinion leader (KOL) webinar series, reviewing both the progress and the opportunities for tamibarotene in higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and for SY-2101 in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). The KOLs discussed the evolving treatment landscape as well as the unmet need in these diseases. An archived replay of each KOL event can be found on the Investors & Media section of Syros’ website www.syros.com.

RECENT PIPELINE UPDATES
Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results
Cash and Financial Guidance
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of June 30, 2021 were $195.3 million, as compared with $174 million on December 31, 2020. This increase reflects the gross proceeds of $75.6 million that Syros received from its January 2021 public offering, partially offset by cash used to fund its operations.
Based on its current plans, Syros believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to fund its planned operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into 2023.
Conference Call and Webcast
Syros will host a conference call today at 8:30 a.m. ET to discuss these second quarter 2021 financial results and provide a corporate update.
To access the live conference call, please dial (866) 595-4538 (domestic) or (636) 812-6496 (international), and refer to conference ID 4156527. A webcast of the call will also be available on the Investors & Media section of the Syros website at www.syros.com. An archived replay of the webcast will be available for approximately 30 days following the presentation.

Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in these forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including Syros’ ability to: advance the development of its programs, including SY-1425, SY-2101 and SY-5609, under the timelines it projects in current and future clinical trials; demonstrate in any current and future clinical trials the requisite safety, efficacy and combinability of its drug candidates; sustain the response rates and durability of response seen to date with its drug candidates; successfully develop a companion diagnostic test to identify patients with the RARA biomarker; obtain and maintain patent protection for its drug candidates and the freedom to operate under third party intellectual property; obtain and maintain necessary regulatory approvals; identify, enter into and maintain collaboration agreements with third parties; manage competition; manage expenses; raise the substantial additional capital needed to achieve its business objectives; attract and retain qualified personnel; and successfully execute on its business strategies; risks described under the caption “Risk Factors” in Syros’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, each of which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and risks described in other filings that Syros makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the future. In addition, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact Syros’ workforce and its clinical trial operations activities, and the operations of the third parties on which Syros relies, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration and severity of the pandemic, additional or modified government actions, and the actions that may be required to contain the virus or treat its impact.
