BIO-PATH HOLDINGS REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Conference Call to be Held Today at 8:30 A.M. ET

HOUSTON—November 15, 2023 – Bio-Path Holdings, Inc., (NASDAQ:BPTH), a biotechnology company leveraging its proprietary DNAbilize® liposomal delivery and antisense technology to develop a portfolio of targeted nucleic acid cancer drugs, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023 and provided an update on recent corporate developments.

“The third quarter marked a particularly progressive time at Bio-Path as we reported compelling clinical data from our Phase 2 trial of prexigebersen in acute myeloid leukemia (AML),” said Peter Nielsen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Bio-Path Holdings. “In October, we hosted a Key Opinion Leader (KOL) event with two physician experts who expressed their enthusiasm for the potential of prexigebersen to change the treatment landscape and patient outcomes in this most challenging patient population.”

“As we look toward the balance of the year and into 2024, we are more encouraged than ever for the potential of our DNAbilize® platform to positively impact a number of difficult to treat cancer indications,” continued Mr. Nielsen.

Recent Corporate Highlights

Announced Positive Results from Interim Analysis of Phase 2 Clinical Trial of Prexigebersen in Acute Myeloid Leukemia. In August, Bio-Path reported positive interim data from Stage 2 of the Company’s Phase 2 study of prexigebersen in combination with decitabine and venetoclax for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Prexigebersen continues to be well-tolerated and has now shown compelling efficacy results in two reporting cohorts including evaluable newly diagnosed AML patients and evaluable refractory/relapsed AML patients, which exceed outcomes with combination treatment of decitabine and venetoclax.

Hosted Key Opinion Leader Event to Discuss Prexigebersen and Advances in the AML Treatment Landscape. In October, Bio-Path hosted a virtual KOL event to discuss the current AML treatment landscape and the growing body of clinical evidence in support of prexigebersen as a treatment for AML. The event featured presentations from Jorge Cortes, M.D., Director, Georgia Cancer Center, Augusta University and Maro Ohanian, D.O., Department of Leukemia, Division of Cancer Medicine, MD Anderson Cancer Center.

Financial Results for the Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2023

The Company reported a net loss of $3.2 million, or $0.32 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to a net loss of $3.5 million, or $0.49 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Research and development expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased to $2.3 million, compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to decreased manufacturing development expenses partially offset by an increase in expense related to our clinical trial for prexigebersen in AML due to increased patient enrollment in 2023.

General and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased to $1.0 million, compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to decreased legal fees.

Change in fair value of the Company’s warrant liability for the three months ended September 30, 2023 resulted in non-cash income of $0.1 million. The Company did not have the warrant liability in the comparable period for 2022.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had cash of $2.4 million, compared to $10.4 million as of December 31, 2022. Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $9.7 million, compared to $10.1

million for the comparable period in 2022. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $1.7 million.
