New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - April 8, 2026) - OS Therapies, Inc. (NYSE American: OSTX) ("OS Therapies" or "the Company"), the world leader in gene-edited, listeria-based cancer immunotherapies, today announced that Craig Eagle, MD, was appointed to the Company's newly-formed strategic advisory board. The Company's strategic advisory board is being formed to assist the Company in fine-tuning its osteosarcoma regulatory execution plan and to help develop a detailed pipeline development plan to prioritize the highest value opportunities beyond osteosarcoma. The Company currently has clinical-stage pipeline assets in breast cancer, colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, HPV-related cancers, as well as several other oncology indications.
"I am excited to help advise OS Therapies at this crucial time in the Company's life cycle," said Craig Eagle, MD, inaugural member of the Company's strategic advisory board. "I have been following the listeria-based immuno-oncology field for well over a decade. With OS Therapies' focus on an ultra-rare pediatric cancer where other immunotherapy assets have faced significant challenges, they are showing the value of this more comprehensive listeria-based immunostimulatory approach. Having been privy to the biomarker data from the Phase 2b trial, I am confident in the direction the Company is going and its prospects in osteosarcoma and beyond."
Dr. Craig Eagle currently serves as Guardant Health's Chief Medical Officer. Prior to joining Guardant Health, Dr. Eagle served as Vice President of Medical Affairs Oncology for Genentech, where he oversaw the medical programs across the oncology portfolio and developed innovative cancer trials and strategies in personalized health care. Prior to Genentech, Dr. Eagle held several leadership roles at Pfizer, including oncology business lead for the United Kingdom and Canada, global lead for Oncology Strategic Alliances and Partnerships, and global head of the Oncology Therapeutic Area Global Medical and Outcomes Group, where he oversaw the U.S. oncology business, an extensive clinical trial program, health outcomes assessments, and scientific collaborations. Dr. Eagle attended medical school at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia and received his general internist training at Royal North Shore Hospital in Sydney. Dr. Eagle completed his specialist training in hemato-oncology and laboratory hematology at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Sydney and was granted a Fellowship in the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (FRACP) and the Royal College of Pathologists Australasia (FRCPA).
"Given Dr. Eagle's expertise in oncology therapeutic and biomarker development, we are very pleased to be able to leverage his experience as we engage with global regulators on the utility of our biomarker data to drive the regulatory process forward, as well as thinking through prioritization of our pipeline to create maximum shareholder value once the Company is commercial," said Paul Romness, MPH, Chair & CEO of OS Therapies.
