Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On June 12, 2025, Nurix Therapeutics, Inc.

As previously announced, the Company will host a webcast on June 12, 2025, to discuss the data presented at EHA2025.

Item 8.01 Other Events.
On June 12, 2025, the Company announced updated clinical data from the Phase 1 clinical trial of bexobrutideg (NX-5948).
The updated data include efficacy and safety findings for patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (“CLL”) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (“SLL”) in the fully enrolled Phase 1a dose escalation study (n=48). This cohort of CLL/SLL patients was a heavily pretreated population that had received a median of four prior lines of therapy (range = 2–12) including prior covalent Bruton's tyrosine kinase (“BTK”) inhibitors (97.9%), prior BCL2 inhibitors (83.3%), and prior non-covalent BTK inhibitors (27.1%). At baseline, many patients had mutations associated with BTK inhibitor resistance, including mutations in BTK (38.3%) and PLC2G (14.9%). Poor prognostic features were common, including TP53 mutations (44.7%), and five patients (10.4%) had central nervous system (“CNS”) involvement.
Patients were treated with bexobrutideg at doses ranging from 50 mg to 600 mg once daily by oral administration in the Phase 1a dose escalation study. As of the March 12, 2025 data cut, the median follow up was 9.0 months with most patients still on treatment. Bexobrutideg was well tolerated across all doses evaluated with the most common treatment emergent adverse events of purpura/contusion (45.8%), neutropenia (29.2%) and thrombocytopenia (22.9%), primarily low grade. No new onset atrial fibrillation was observed. Among the efficacy evaluable patients with CLL/SLL (n = 47), bexobrutideg treatment resulted in an objective response rate (“ORR”) of 80.9% across all doses tested with a median time to first response of 1.9 months. Many patients experienced deepening of their response with longer time, with multiple conversions from stable disease to partial responses and one patient, who has been on treatment for over two years, experienced a complete response. The median duration of response has not been reached, with 18 patients on treatment for more than a year. Responses were observed across all populations regardless of prior treatment, baseline mutations, or CNS involvement.
