and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Overview We are a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of targeted protein degradation medicines, the next frontier in innovative drug design aimed at improving treatment options for patients with cancer and inflammatory diseases. Powered by a fully artificial intelligence (AI)-integrated discovery engine capable of tackling any protein class, and coupled with leading ligase expertise, Nurix has built a significant advantage in translating the science of protein degradation into clinical advancements with the aim of establishing degrader-based treatments at the forefront of patient care. Our wholly owned, clinical stage pipeline includes three investigational drug candidates designed with the goal to be first-in-class or best-in-class therapeutics: bexobrutideg (NX-5948), a highly selective degrader of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK); zelebrudomide (NX-2127), a dual degrader of BTK and transcription factors IKZF1(Ikaros) and IKZF3 (Aiolos); and NX-1607, an inhibitor of Casitas B-lineage lymphoma proto-oncogene B (CBL-B), an E3 ligase that regulates activation of multiple immune cell types including T cells and NK cells. We are also advancing multiple potentially first-in-class or best-in-class degraders and degrader antibody conjugates (DACs) in our preclinical pipeline. Our partnered drug discovery pipeline consists of a clinical stage degrader of IRAK4 (NX-0479/GS-6791), a preclinical stage degrader of STAT6, currently in investigational new drug application (IND), enabling studies, and multiple currently undisclosed targets under collaboration agreements with Gilead Sciences, Inc. (Gilead), Sanofi S.A. (Sanofi) and Pfizer Inc. (Pfizer). Within these collaborations, we retain certain options for co-development, co-commercialization and profit sharing in the United States for multiple drug candidates. Both our wholly owned and partnered pipelines are driven by our DEL-AI discovery engine which employs advanced machine learning to enable all aspects of discovery, starting with DNA encoded library (DEL) hit-finding and degrader design, followed by automated chemistry synthesis and direct-to-biology screening and optimization, to rapidly generate degraders and DACs as new chemical entity drug candidates. By leveraging hundreds of billions of DEL compound binding signatures derived from thousands of DEL affinity screens collected from a diverse set of highly validated protein targets, our DEL-AI engine can prospectively identify binders as starting points for drug discovery for virtually any pharmaceutically relevant target. Our Clinical and Preclinical Development Pipeline Our wholly owned pipeline of drug candidates comprises three clinical stage oncology programs and multiple preclinical stage Targeted Protein Degrader (TPD) and Degrader Antibody Conjugate (DAC) programs spanning the therapeutic areas of oncology, inflammation and immunology. Our partnered pipeline further expands our reach into rheumatoid arthritis and Type 2 inflammation, as well as solid tumor oncology via multiple undisclosed programs. This combination of wholly owned and partnered portfolios across a range of indications and modalities demonstrates our ability to discover and advance novel medicines, many of which selectively target disease proteins previously thought to be undruggable. The following chart summarizes our clinical and preclinical pipelines and ongoing clinical studies: 4 Clinical Pipeline Our portfolio of targeted protein degraders of the B‑cell signaling protein BTK comprises bexobrutideg, an investigational, orally bioavailable, highly selective BTK degrader for the treatment of relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies and potentially autoimmune diseases, and zelebrudomide, an investigational, orally bioavailable degrader that simultaneously degrades BTK and two well-characterized cereblon neosubstrates IKZF1 (Ikaros) and IKZF3 (Aiolos) that are clinically validated transcription factor targets for relapsed or refractory B‑cell malignancies. Status of Bexobrutideg: We are currently conducting a Phase 2 study of bexobrutideg in patients with relapsed or refractory CLL having failed three previous lines of therapy, specifically a covalent BTK inhibitor (cBTKi), a BCL2 inhibitor (BCL2i) and a non-covalent BTK inhibitor (ncBTKi).…
