Filed June 7, 2024

File No. 333-279839

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

On behalf of OS Therapies Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), we are hereby filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, one complete copy of the Company’s Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Amendment”), relating to a proposed public offering of shares of the Company’s common stock, including a copy of the exhibits listed in the Amendment as filed therewith.

 

The Amendment reflects responsive changes to the SEC staff’s comment letter dated June 11, 2024, with respect to revising the financial statements and accompanying footnotes to reflect the reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock effected on June 4, 2024, by updating all share and per share amounts for all common stock related instruments. Set forth below are each of the staff’s comments and the respective responses.

“On June 4, 2024, we filed a certificate of amendment to our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation to effectuate a 1-for-2 reverse stock split of our outstanding shares of common stock, effective upon such filing. The par value and authorized shares of our common stock were not adjusted as a result of the reverse stock split. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split as all fractional shares were rounded up to the nearest whole share. All share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated for all periods presented to reflect the reverse stock split.”

Additionally, as requested by the staff, we have removed in various places throughout the prospectus the word “assumed” that appeared prior to the initial public offering price. 

 

As we have previously advised the staff, the Company and the lead underwriter would like to submit requests for acceleration of effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement promptly in order to have the registration statement declared effective by the Commission on or about Tuesday, June 18, 2024, or as soon thereafter as is practicable. The Company appreciates the staff’s review of the Amendment with this expedited timing.

 

A copy of the letter from FINRA clearing the underwriting compensation arrangements for the offering has been forwarded to you, and we believe all other information has been previously provided to the staff.
