Biomea Fusion Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Financial Results and Corporate Highlights

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., March 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Biomea Fusion, Inc. (“Biomea” or “Biomea Fusion” or “the Company”) (Nasdaq: BMEA), a clinical-stage diabetes and obesity medicines company reported fourth quarter and full year 2024 financial results and corporate highlights.

"2024 was a transformative year for Biomea, marked by the advancement of icovamenib into late-stage development and compelling clinical data that reinforced our confidence in its potential to reshape diabetes treatment, particularly for patients with severe insulin deficiency," said Mick Hitchcock, Ph.D., Interim Chief Executive Officer and Board Member of Biomea Fusion. "As we move into this next phase, the Board made a strategic decision to align leadership with the company’s evolution, and I’m honored to step in and contribute decades of experience in late-stage development, regulatory strategy, and commercialization to help guide Biomea forward. This transition reflects the continued confidence in our menin inhibitor program and the strength of our covalent small molecule platform. We remain fully committed to advancing icovamenib and delivering on our mission to transform diabetes treatment through this disease-modifying therapy. With key data readouts and regulatory milestones ahead, 2025 is set to be a pivotal year for the company.”

In March 2025, the Company announced a leadership transition, appointing Board member Mick Hitchcock, Ph.D., as Interim Chief Executive Officer, succeeding Thomas Butler.

In January 2025, we announced plans to position Biomea as a dedicated diabetes and obesity medicines company. Building on our most recent clinical trial results, our strategic focus for icovamenib is now exclusively centered on metabolic disorders. As a result, we are terminating all ongoing oncology trials involving icovamenib and will conclude the BMF-500 study in patients with relapsed/refractory acute leukemia with FLT3 gene mutations following the dose escalation phase. Biomea will seek strategic partnerships to advance its oncology portfolio and the capabilities of its FUSION™ System, while reallocating internal resources to accelerate our metabolic disease programs.

In October 2024, we announced the formation of our Global Scientific Advisory Board, comprised of 22 internationally recognized experts in beta cell science and diabetes therapeutics. This board will work closely with our leadership team as we continue to explore menin biology and beta cell regeneration, and advance the clinical development of icovamenib as a novel, disease-modifying treatment targeting a root cause of diabetes.

About Icovamenib

Icovamenib is an investigational, orally bioavailable, potent, and selective covalent inhibitor of menin. The molecule was built using Biomea Fusion’s FUSION™ System and is designed to regenerate insulin-producing beta cells with the aim to cure diabetes. Icovamenib’s proposed mechanism of action in diabetes is to enable the proliferation, preservation, and reactivation of a patient’s own healthy, functional, insulin-producing beta cells. As the potentially first disease-modifying therapy for T1D and T2D, icovamenib could become an important addition and complement to the diabetes treatment landscape once it has successfully completed clinical studies.

About Biomea Fusion

Biomea Fusion is a clinical-stage diabetes and obesity medicines company focused on the discovery and development of oral covalent small molecules to improve the lives of patients with diabetes, obesity, and metabolic diseases. A covalent small molecule is a synthetic compound that forms a permanent bond to its target protein and offers a number of potential advantages over conventional non-covalent drugs, including greater target selectivity, lower drug exposure, and the ability to drive a deeper, more durable response.

We are utilizing our proprietary FUSION™ System to discover, design and develop a pipeline of next-generation covalent-binding small-molecule medicines designed to maximize clinical benefit for patients. We aim to have an outsized impact on the treatment of disease for the patients we serve. We aim to cure.
