Exhibit 99.4

Subject: G1 Therapeutics to be Acquired by Pharmacosmos: No 2Q24 financial conference call

Good morning,

I’m reaching out to make sure you saw this morning’s announcement that G1 has entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Pharmacosmos A/S, a global supportive care leader in the development of innovative treatments for patients suffering from iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia.

This transaction will allow us to advance and accelerate our important work on behalf of patients with extensive stage small cell lung cancer with a company that shares our vision and our values. Under the terms of the agreement, Pharmacosmos will acquire all outstanding shares of G1 Therapeutics common stock for U.S. $7.15 per share in cash for a total equity value of approximately $405 million.

In light of this news, G1 will not be hosting a conference call / webcast tomorrow to discuss our second quarter 2024 financial results and business results. The Company will file a form 10-Q in the ordinary course.

Thank you, as always, for your support of G1.

Sincerely,

Will
