Sapanisertib

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sensei Biotherapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNSE) today reported financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2025, following its previously announced acquisition of Faeth Therapeutics and concurrent $200 million private placement. The financing, together with the Company's cash on hand, is expected to support advancement of PIKTOR through key clinical milestones, including topline data readouts from both the ongoing Phase 2 trial in advanced endometrial cancer (Study FTH-PIK-201) and the planned Phase 1b trial in HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer (Study FTH-PIK-101). Acquired through the Faeth transaction, PIKTOR is now Sensei’s lead program. The investigational, proprietary, all-oral combination of serabelisib and sapanisertib is designed to inhibit multiple nodes of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway through PI3K-alpha and dual mTORC1/2 targeting. “2025 was a year of focus and discipline for Sensei, and with the addition of Faeth and injection of new capital, we are entering 2026 with a clear path forward,” said Christopher Gerry, President & General Counsel of Sensei Biotherapeutics. “We are now focused on advancing PIKTOR through key clinical milestones, including topline data from the ongoing Phase 2 trial in advanced endometrial cancer and initiation of the planned Phase 1b trial in HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer, both expected by year-end 2026.” “The data to date suggest PIKTOR may achieve more comprehensive pathway suppression than single-node approaches, with an emerging tolerability profile that compares favorably to existing therapies, highlighting its potential to address significant unmet need in multiple solid tumor indications,” said Anand Parikh, Chief Operating Officer of Sensei Biotherapeutics. “We are focused on disciplined execution as we advance PIKTOR through clinical trials in endometrial and breast cancer, with additional opportunities in ovarian and lung cancer.” Full Year 2025 Financial Results Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $21.2 million as of December 31, 2025 as compared to $41.3 million as of December 31, 2024. Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses were $11.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with $18.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in R&D expenses was primarily attributable to reduced costs across personnel, facilities, lab supplies, clinical trials, and manufacturing. General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses: G&A expenses were $11.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $13.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in G&A expense was primarily attributable to lower personnel costs, partially offset by higher restructuring costs in 2025 and higher consulting costs. Net Loss: Net loss was $21.1 million, or $(16.72) per basic and diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with a net loss of $30.2 million, or $(24.01) per basic and diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2024. Weighted-average common shares outstanding, basic and diluted, were 1,260,772 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with 1,255,776 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
