Overview
Mirati Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage oncology company developing
product candidates to address the genetic and immunological promoters of cancer.
Our KRAS inhibitor programs are focused on developing novel inhibitors of KRAS
mutations and includes one clinical program and a preclinical program. In
immuno-oncology, we are advancing our kinase inhibitor clinical program where
our product candidate has the potential to improve the immune environment of
tumor cells and enhance and expand the efficacy of existing cancer immunotherapy
medicines when given in combination. We also have additional preclinical
programs which include potentially first-in-class and best-in-class product
candidates specifically designed to address mutations and tumors where few
treatment options exist. We approach each of our discovery and development
programs with a singular focus: to translate our deep understanding of the
molecular drivers of cancer into better therapies and better outcomes for
patients.
Our clinical programs consist of two product candidates: MRTX849, a KRAS G12C
inhibitor, and sitravatinib, a multi-kinase inhibitor. We have several early
discovery programs, including a preclinical program for a KRAS G12D inhibitor.
KRAS Inhibitor Program
The RAS family of genes is the most commonly mutated oncogene and mutations in
this gene family occur in up to approximately 25% of all human cancers. Among
the RAS family members, mutations most frequently occur in KRAS (approximately
85% of all RAS family mutations). Tumors characterized by KRAS mutations are
commonly associated with poor prognosis and resistance to therapy. Nonclinical
studies have demonstrated that cancer cells exhibiting KRAS mutations are highly
dependent on KRAS function for cell growth and survival. Historically, KRAS has
been extremely difficult to directly inhibit due to the absence of a tractable
small molecule drug binding site. Our KRAS inhibitor programs are focused on the
discovery and development of small molecule compounds that target KRAS G12C and
G12D. We intend to pursue development of our KRAS G12C inhibitor program in both
single agent and rational combination approaches. We also have a KRAS G12D
inhibitor program in preclinical development.
MRTX849
Background
MRTX849, our lead KRAS G12C compound, is an investigational, specific, potent
and orally available small molecule. MRTX849 is designed to directly inhibit
KRAS G12C mutations. KRAS G12C mutations are present in approximately 14%
17
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
of non-small cell lung cancer ("NSCLC") adenocarcinoma patients, 4% of
colorectal cancer ("CRC") patients, 2% of pancreatic cancer patients, as well as
smaller percentages of several other difficult-to-treat cancers. Based on
observed preclinical attributes, we believe MRTX849 has the potential to be a
best-in-class product candidate for the suppression of G12C mutant KRAS
signaling. Single agent treatment with MRTX849 has shown complete regression in
a subset of KRAS G12C-positive human tumor models implanted in mice.
Program Update
We received U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") authorization of our
investigational new drug application for MRTX849 in November 2018, and on
January 15, 2019, we announced that we had dosed the first patient in the dose
escalation phase of a Phase 1/2 clinical trial in patients with advanced solid
tumors that harbor G12C mutations. This trial is designed to enable expansion of
the single agent cohorts and could potentially serve as the basis of a new drug
application ("NDA") submission seeking accelerated approval by the FDA. This
trial also enables exploratory combination cohorts. Following single agent dose
escalation, we are expanding into cohorts that include patients with NSCLC, CRC
and those with other tumors that carry the G12C mutation. In the first quarter
of 2020, we have initiated enrollment in a registration enabling cohort as a
monotherapy in NSCLC.
On October 28, 2019, we reported the first interim clinical data from this Phase
1/2 clinical trial in a presentation at the 2019 American Association for Cancer
Research-National Cancer Institute-European Organisation for Research and
Treatment of Cancer ("AACR-NCI-EORTC") International Conference on Molecular
Targets and Cancer Therapeutics in Boston, Massachusetts. As of October 11,
2019, the trial had enrolled 17 patients, including 10 patients with NSCLC, four
patients with CRC, and three patients with other tumor types. Five dose cohorts
have been evaluated: 150 mg, 300 mg, 600 mg, and 1200 mg, taken orally once
daily ("QD"), and 600 mg, taken orally twice daily ("BID"). The trial enrolled
single patient dose escalation cohorts in an accelerated titration design. Trial
objectives include evaluation of safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics,
pharmacokinetics ("PK") and tumor response evaluated using RECIST v1.1 criteria.
As of the data cut-off date of October 11, 2019, 12 patients across all dose
levels were evaluable for response with at least one radiographic scan.
• At the highest dose (600 mg BID), three of five evaluable patients with
NSCLC and one of two evaluable patients with CRC achieved a Partial
Response ("PR"), and the remaining patients experienced stable disease.
• Across all dose levels, three of six patients with NSCLC and one of four
patients with CRC achieved a PR. Two responding patients (one with NSCLC
and one with CRC) achieved confirmed PRs, both with continuing tumor
shrinkage following their first scan. The other two patients with PRs
(both NSCLC) remain on study but have not yet had confirmatory scans.
• Clinical PK data demonstrated that the dose of 600 mg BID results in drug
levels that meet or exceed those likely to lead to full inhibition of KRAS
G12C signaling.
• Treatment duration across all dose levels ranged from 6.7- 38.6 weeks for
patients with NSCLC and 9.9-30.1 weeks for patients with CRC as of the
data cut-off.
Treatment-related adverse events were primarily grade 1 events. One patient
experienced a dose-limiting toxicity ("DLT") at the 1200 mg QD dose (capsule
burden intolerance 12 capsules) and one patient experienced a DLT at the 600 mg
BID dose (grade 3/4 isolated amylase/lipase increase). The maximum tolerated
dose was not established and further dose escalation may be explored. Enrollment
into dose expansion at the 600 mg BID dose is underway.
MRTX849 Development in Collaboration with Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation
("Novartis")
In July 2019, we announced a clinical collaboration agreement with Novartis to
evaluate the combination of MRTX849 and Novartis' investigational SHP2
inhibitor, TNO155, in patients with advanced solid tumors that harbor G12C
mutations. Under the terms of the non-exclusive collaboration, we will sponsor
the trial and we and Novartis will jointly oversee and share the costs of
clinical development activities for the combined therapy. Novartis will provide
TNO155 at no cost.
MRTX849 and KRAS G12D Discovery Collaboration with Pfizer Inc. ("Pfizer")
In October 2014, we entered into a drug discovery collaboration and option
agreement with Array BioPharma, Inc. ("Array," acquired by Pfizer Inc. during
2019) whereby Array provided services to facilitate the discovery, optimization
and development of small molecule compounds that bind and specifically inhibit
KRAS G12C. In June 2017, the two parties entered into a second, separate
discovery collaboration and option agreement whereby Array provided services to
facilitate the discovery,
18
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
optimization and development of small molecule compounds that bind and
specifically inhibit KRAS G12D. Both agreements established an option mechanism
which enabled the Company to elect an exclusive worldwide license under the
technology for the development and commercialization of certain products based
on such compounds.
Under the agreements, following the joint discovery periods which have
concluded, we executed our options to retain exclusive worldwide licenses to
develop, manufacture and commercialize inhibitors of KRAS G12C and KRAS G12D,
including but not limited to, MRTX849 and our KRAS G12D inhibitor program. Under
each agreement, Pfizer is entitled to potential development milestone payments
of up to $9.3 million, and tiered sales milestone payments of up to $337.0
million based upon worldwide net sales, and tiered royalties in the high single
digits to mid-teens on worldwide net sales of products arising from the
collaborations. Under the agreements, we have incurred $4.3 million in
development milestone payments from inception through March 31, 2020.
Sitravatinib
Sitravatinib is a spectrum-selective kinase inhibitor designed to potently
inhibit receptor tyrosine kinases ("RTK"s), including TAM family receptors
(TYRO3, Axl, Mer), split family receptors (VEGFR2, KIT) and RET. Sitravatinib is
an investigational agent that is being evaluated in combination with immune
checkpoint inhibitors.
Sitravatinib's potent inhibition of TAM and split family RTKs may overcome
resistance to checkpoint inhibitor therapy through targeted reversal of an
immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, enhancing antigen-specific T cell
response and expanding dendritic cell-dependent antigen presentation. As an
immuno-oncology agent, sitravatinib is being evaluated in combination with
nivolumab (OPDIVO®), Bristol-Myers Squibb Company's ("BMS") anti-PD-1 checkpoint
inhibitor, in patients with NSCLC who have experienced documented disease
progression following treatment with a checkpoint inhibitor. Sitravatinib is
also being developed in certain Asian territories in collaboration with BeiGene,
Ltd. ("BeiGene") which is evaluating sitravatinib in combination with
tislelizumab, BeiGene's investigational anti-PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor, in a
number of advanced solid tumors.
Sitravatinib in Combination with Nivolumab
In an ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial, we are evaluating sitravatinib in
combination with nivolumab in patients with NSCLC who have experienced
documented disease progression following prior treatment with a checkpoint
inhibitor. On May 7, 2020, we announced updated preliminary data from this
clinical trial. Patients in the prior clinical benefit ("PCB") cohort
experienced PCB on a checkpoint inhibitor as part of their last treatment
regimen prior to enrollment. PCB is defined as either complete response, partial
response, or stable disease for greater than or equal to 12 weeks. The PCB
cohort had been fully enrolled with 87 patients.
As of the data cutoff of January 30, 2020:
• preliminary median overall survival of 15.6 months for the PCB cohort (n=87);
• preliminary median overall survival of 18.1 months for the subset of PCB
patients who received the combination as either 2nd or 3rd line of therapy
after progressing on treatment with a checkpoint inhibitor (n=73), which
is a patient cohort consistent with the inclusion criteria for the ongoing
Phase 3 clinical trial; and
• the combination has been well-tolerated and most adverse events were Grade
1 or 2 and were similar to data presented previously.
We held an end of Phase 2 meeting with the FDA in the third quarter of 2018 with
respect to the development of sitravatinib in combination with a checkpoint
inhibitor in NSCLC. Based on feedback received from the FDA, we initiated in
July 2019 a Phase 3 randomized clinical trial in second-line NSCLC patients. The
Phase 3 clinical trial is comparing the combination of sitravatinib plus
nivolumab to docetaxel in patients whose tumors have progressed on prior therapy
with platinum-chemotherapy in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor.
Ultimately, we expect the results of this clinical trial, if positive, to enable
a NDA submission for the treatment of NSCLC patients whose tumors have
progressed following treatment with a platinum-containing regimen in combination
with a checkpoint inhibitor. Enrollment is ongoing in the Phase 3 clinical
trial.
In January 2020, we amended the protocol to include third line patients who have
received chemotherapy followed by a checkpoint inhibitor, in addition to second
line patients treated with a combination of chemotherapy and a checkpoint
inhibitor. We also amended the statistical design to include an interim analysis
of overall survival that we believe, if positive, could support an NDA
submission seeking full approval. By amending the protocol, the overall sample
size decreased from approximately 660 to 530 patients.
19
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
On January 7, 2019, we announced a clinical trial collaboration with BMS in
connection with the aforementioned Phase 3 clinical trial. Under the terms of
the collaboration, we are sponsoring and funding the clinical trial and BMS is
providing nivolumab at no cost. In certain specified cases, BMS will have an
exclusive right to negotiate a commercial agreement with us for a limited period
of time with respect to developing and commercializing sitravatinib worldwide
excluding certain territories in Asia, Australia and New Zealand. We maintain
global development and commercial rights to sitravatinib outside of certain
Asian territories, where we have partnered with BeiGene, and we are free to
develop the program in combination with other agents.
During the third quarter of 2018, we initiated an open label, multi-cohort Phase
2 clinical trial of sitravatinib in combination with nivolumab in patients with
advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma. On November 9, 2019, we reported
data from this clinical trial at the 2019 Society of Immunotherapy of Cancer
(SITC) 34th Annual Meeting, based on a data cutoff of October 17, 2019. Data
from Cohort 1 of the trial were presented, where patients must have been
previously treated with an immune checkpoint inhibitor and prior platinum-based
chemotherapy and had documented disease progression. A summary of these data is
presented below:
• as of the data cut-off date of October 17, 2019, 22 patients were
evaluable for response with at least one radiographic scan;
• 6 of 22 evaluable patients achieved a confirmed CR (1 patient) or PR (5
patients);
• 21 of 22 evaluable patients achieved a confirmed CR, PR, or stable disease;
• 4 responding patients had been treated for more than 6 months; and
• the combination was well-tolerated and most adverse events were Grade 1 or 2.
During the third quarter of 2018, we also initiated an open label Phase 2
clinical trial to assess the mechanism of action of sitravatinib combined with
nivolumab in patients with advanced clear cell renal cell cancer ("RCC").
Sitravatinib Development in Collaboration with BeiGene, Ltd.
In January 2018, we entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement (the
"BeiGene Agreement") with BeiGene, pursuant to which we and BeiGene agreed to
collaboratively develop sitravatinib in Asia (excluding Japan and certain other
countries), Australia and New Zealand (the "Licensed Territory"). Under the
BeiGene Agreement, we granted BeiGene an exclusive license to develop,
manufacture and commercialize sitravatinib in the Licensed Territory, and we
retained exclusive rights for the development, manufacturing and
commercialization of sitravatinib outside the Licensed Territory.
In November 2018, we announced the dosing of the first patient under the BeiGene
Agreement in a Phase 1b clinical trial to assess the safety and tolerability,
pharmacokinetics and preliminary anti-tumor activity of sitravatinib in
combination with BeiGene's investigational anti-PD-1 antibody, tislelizumab, in
patients with advanced solid tumors. The clinical trial is currently enrolling
patients in China and Australia. BeiGene's clinical trials will evaluate the
combination of sitravatinib and tislelizumab in patients with NSCLC, RCC,
hepatocellular cancer, gastric cancer and ovarian cancer. In December 2019,
BeiGene reported initial proof of concept data for the ovarian cancer arm of the
trial at the 2019 ESMO Immuno-Oncology Congress.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are
based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation
of these financial statements requires us to make significant estimates and
judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and
expenses and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, our actual results may
differ significantly from our estimates.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and
estimates from the information provided in Item 7, Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Revenues
License and collaboration revenues relate to the BeiGene Agreement under which
BeiGene was granted an exclusive license to develop, manufacture and
commercialize sitravatinib in the Licensed Territory. License and collaboration
revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were $0.3 million
and $1.2 million, respectively, and relate to revenues earned related to a
manufacturing supply services agreement with BeiGene.
Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses consist primarily of:
• salaries and related expenses for personnel, including expenses
related to stock options or other share-based compensation granted
to personnel in research and development functions;
• fees paid to external service providers such as Clinical Research
Organizations ("CROs") and contract manufacturing organizations
related to clinical trials, including contractual obligations for
clinical development, clinical sites, manufacturing and scale-up,
and formulation of clinical drug supplies;
• fees paid to contract services related to drug discovery efforts
including chemistry and biology services;
• license fees paid in connection with our early discovery efforts; and
• costs for allocated facilities and depreciation of equipment.
We record research and development expenses as incurred.
Our research and development efforts during the three months ended March 31,
2020 and 2019 were focused primarily on our clinical development programs and
our preclinical programs. The following table summarizes our research and
development expenses, (in thousands):

Other research and development costs 2,313 602 1,711
Research and development expense $ 71,708 $ 34,240 $ 37,468
Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were
$71.7 million compared to $34.2 million for the three months ended March 31,
2019. The increase of $37.5 million primarily relates to increases in
third-party research and development expense of $25.6 million, share-based
compensation expense of $6.7 million and salaries and other employee related
expense of $3.4 million. The increase in third-party research and development
expense relates to an increase in expenses associated with development of
MRTX849 of $20.5 million and sitravatinib of $1.9 million, offset by decreases
in expenses associated with discontinued programs of $0.6 million. The increase
in expenses associated with MRTX849 relates to the Phase 1 clinical trial which
was initiated in the first quarter of 2019 and the costs are comprised largely
of manufacturing expenses, CRO fees and other clinical trial-related expenses.
The increase in development expense for sitravatinib is due to increased
manufacturing expenses, investigator payment expenses, and CRO expenses to
support the expansion of existing and new sitravatinib clinical trials. The
decreases in expenses associated with discontinued programs are due to decisions
made in prior years to discontinue development of glesatinib and
mocetinostat. The increase in share-based compensation of $6.7 million is due to
an increase in the fair value of stock options granted during the three months
ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. The increase in
salaries and other employee related expense of $3.4 million is primarily due to
an increase in the number of research and development employees employed during
the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019.
At this time, due to the risks inherent in the clinical development process and
the early stage of our product development programs we are unable to estimate
with any certainty the costs we will incur in the continued development of
sitravatinib and MRTX849. The process of conducting clinical trials necessary to
obtain regulatory approval and manufacturing scale-up to support expanded
development and potential future commercialization is costly and time consuming.
Any failure by us or delay in completing clinical trials, manufacturing scale up
or in obtaining regulatory approvals could lead to increased research and
development expense and, in turn, have a material adverse effect on our results
of operations. We expect that our research and development expenses may increase
if we are successful in advancing sitravatinib, MRTX849 and our preclinical KRAS
G12D program, or any of our other preclinical programs into more advanced stages
of clinical development.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related
benefits, including share-based compensation, related to our executive, finance,
business development, legal, human resources and support functions. Other
general and administrative expenses include professional fees for auditing, tax,
consulting and patent-related services, rent and utilities and insurance.
22
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020
and 2019 were $18.0 million and $9.8 million, respectively, representing an
increase of $8.2 million. The increase in expense for the three months ended
March 31, 2020 is due primarily to an increase in share-based compensation
expense of $3.7 million, and to a lesser extent increases in salaries and other
employee related expense of $2.7 million, professional services expense of $1.0
million, and facilities, insurance and other expense of $0.8 million. The
increase in share-based compensation expense is due to an increase in the fair
value of stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2020,
compared to the same period in 2019. The increase in salaries and other employee
related expense and facilities, insurance and other expense is due primarily to
an increase in the number of general and administrative employees during the
three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. The
increase in professional services expense is due to an increase in consulting
fees.
Other Income, Net
Other income, net for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $2.8 million
compared to $1.8 million for the same period in 2019, and consists primarily of
interest income. The increase in interest income is due to an increase in
short-term investment balances.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 2020, we had $695.4 million of cash, cash equivalents and
short-term investments compared to $415.1 million at December 31, 2019. In
January 2020, we completed a public offering of our common stock that generated
net proceeds of $324.0 million. Based on our current and anticipated level of
operations, we believe that our cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments will be sufficient to meet our anticipated obligations for at least
one year from the date that this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed with the
SEC.
To date, we have funded our operations primarily through the sale of our common
stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase our common stock, and to a lesser extent
through up-front payments, research funding and milestone payments under
collaborative arrangements. Since inception, we have primarily devoted our
resources to funding research and development programs, including discovery
research, preclinical and clinical development activities. To fund future
operations, we will likely need to raise additional capital. The amount and
timing of future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including the
timing and results of our ongoing development efforts, the potential expansion
of our current development programs, potential new development programs and
related general and administrative support. We anticipate that we will seek to
fund our operations through public or private equity or debt financings or other
sources, such as potential collaboration agreements. We cannot make assurances
that anticipated additional financing will be available to us on favorable
terms, or at all. Although we have previously been successful in obtaining
financing through our equity securities offerings, there can be no assurance
that we will be able to do so in the future. As a result of the COVID-19
pandemic and actions taken to slow its spread, the global credit and financial
markets have experienced extreme volatility, including diminished liquidity and
credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic
growth, increases in unemployment rates and uncertainty about economic
stability. There can be no assurance that further deterioration in credit and
financial markets and confidence in economic conditions will not occur. If
equity and credit markets deteriorate, it may make any necessary debt or equity
financing more difficult to obtain, more costly and/or more dilutive.
Cash Flows for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019

of proceeds received from the issuance of common stock, exercise of common stock
options, and disgorgement of shareholders' short-swing profits.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we did not have any off-balance
sheet arrangements (as defined by applicable SEC regulations) that are
reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial
condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital
resources.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
There were no material changes outside of the ordinary course of business to our
specific contractual obligations during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Occasionally, new accounting standards are issued or proposed by the Financial
Accounting Standards Board, or other standard-setting bodies that we adopt by
the effective date specified within the standard. Unless otherwise discussed,
standards that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to
have a material impact on our financial statements upon adoption.
