Exhibit 99.1

Biomea Fusion Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results and Corporate Highlights

•

U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) lifted Clinical Hold on COVALENT-111 (Type 2 Diabetes) & COVALENT-112 (Type 1 Diabetes) trials

•

COVALENT-111 Phase 2b 26-week topline data of the dose expansion cohorts expected in December 2024

•

COVALENT-112 Phase 2a 26-week topline data of the open label portion expected in December 2024

•

On track to announce our third clinical candidate, BMF-650, for the treatment of diabetes and obesity – a next-generation, oral small-molecule GLP-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) - and preclinical data combining icovamenib (BMF-219) with a GLP-1 RA-based therapy on October 30th

•

Announced formation of Biomea’s Global Scientific Advisory Board with 22 world-renowned diabetes experts

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., October 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Biomea Fusion, Inc. (“Biomea” or “the Company”) (Nasdaq: BMEA), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to discovering and developing oral covalent small molecules to improve the lives of patients with diabetes, obesity, and genetically defined cancers, today reported third quarter 2024 financial results and corporate highlights.

“Our third quarter was a pivotal quarter for the company. Through collaborative efforts with the FDA, we efficiently resolved the clinical hold on our studies for diabetes, while keeping the expansion study readout in type 2 diabetes on track and continuing to make fundamental progress with the third development program, BMF-650. We are pleased to announce the advancement of our third clinical development candidate - a next-generation oral small molecule GLP-1 receptor agonist. Incretins have become the backbone of obesity treatment, and we believe icovamenib in combination with an incretin together can potentially become the backbone of both diabetes and obesity treatments. We have done extensive preclinical work combining icovamenib with a GLP-1 RA-based therapy and will be sharing this data together with an update on BMF-650 during our conference call on October 30th,” stated Thomas Butler, Biomea Fusion’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. “We are very excited for the planned remaining readouts this year, in particular the topline Week 26 data of Phase 2b COVALENT-111 with approximately 200 type 2 diabetes patients, which will help us define those patients that demonstrate response to icovamenib and will shape the Phase 3 patient population we should target.”

DIABETES & OBESITY
