About SM-88

SM-88 is a potential first-in-class combination therapy that utilizes a proprietary dysfunctional tyrosine derivative to interrupt the metabolic processes of cancer cells, breaking down the cells’ key defenses and making them vulnerable to oxidative stress and death. SM-88 has demonstrated efficacy in the treatment of multiple oncology indications, including breast and prostate cancer, without report of significant toxicity or serious adverse events.

SM-88 is being evaluated in a Phase II clinical trial for prostate cancer (NCT02796898). A Phase II clinical trial in pancreatic cancer is planned for initiation in the first quarter of 2018.

About Tyme

Tyme Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing cancer therapeutics that are intended to be broadly effective across tumor types and have low toxicity profiles. Unlike targeted therapies that attempt to regulate specific mutations within cancer, the Company’s therapeutic approach is designed to take advantage of a cancer cell’s innate metabolic weaknesses to compromise its defenses, leading to cell death through oxidative stress and exposure to the body’s natural immune system. Tyme’s lead clinical program, SM-88, is a first-in-class combination therapy in Phase II development for prostate cancer. The Company is preparing to initiate an additional Phase II clinical trial in pancreatic cancer in early 2018.
