This Amendment No. 1 (this "Amendment No. 1" or this "Schedule 13D/A") amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on December 12, 2025 (the "Statement") by the Reporting Persons. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 1 shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Statement. Unless amended or supplemented below, the information in the Statement remains unchanged. |
| Item 2. | Identity and Background |
|
| (a) | This Schedule 13D/A is being filed on behalf of RA Capital Management, L.P. ("RA Capital"), Peter Kolchinsky, Rajeev Shah, and RA Capital Healthcare Fund, L.P. (the "Fund"). RA Capital, Dr. Kolchinsky, Mr. Shah, and the Fund are collectively referred to herein as the "Reporting Persons." The agreement among the Reporting Persons to file this Schedule 13D/A jointly in accordance with Rule 13d-1(k) of the Act is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The Reporting Persons' beneficial ownership of the Issuer's common stock consists of (i) 12,230,122 shares of common stock held by the Fund; (ii) 970,950 shares of common stock held by RA Capital Nexus Fund, L.P. (the "Nexus Fund"); (iii) 553,703 shares of common stock held by RA Capital Nexus Fund II, L.P. (the "Nexus Fund II"); (iv) 1,245,068 shares of common stock held by RA Capital Nexus Fund III, L.P. (the "Nexus Fund III"); and (v) 367,427 shares of common stock held by a separately managed account (the "Account").
RA Capital Healthcare Fund GP, LLC is the general partner of the Fund, RA Capital Nexus Fund GP, LLC is the general partner of the Nexus Fund, RA Capital Nexus Fund II GP, LLC is the general partner of the Nexus Fund II and RA Capital Nexus Fund III GP, LLC is the general partner of the Nexus Fund III. The general partner of RA Capital is RA Capital Management GP, LLC, of which Dr. Kolchinsky and Mr. Shah are the controlling persons. RA Capital serves as investment adviser for each of the Fund, the Nexus Fund, the Nexus Fund II, the Nexus Fund III and the Account and may be deemed a beneficial owner, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act, of any securities of the Issuer held by the Fund, the Nexus Fund, the Nexus Fund II, the Nexus Fund III or the Account. Each of the Fund , the Nexus Fund I, the Nexus Fund II and the Nexus Fund III has delegated to RA Capital the sole power to vote and the sole power to dispose of all securities held in its portfolio, including the shares of the Issuer's common stock reported herein. Because each of the Fund, the Nexus Fund, the Nexus Fund II and the Nexus Fund III has divested itself of voting and investment power over the reported securities it holds and may not revoke that delegation on less than 61 days' notice, each of the Fund, the Nexus Fund, the Nexus Fund II and the Nexus Fund III disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities it holds for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act and therefore disclaims any obligation to report ownership of the reported securities under Section 13(d) of the Act. As managers of RA Capital, Dr. Kolchinsky and Mr. Shah may be deemed beneficial owners, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act, of any securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by RA Capital. RA Capital, Dr. Kolchinsky, and Mr. Shah disclaim beneficial ownership of the securities reported in this Schedule 13D other than for the purpose of determining their obligations under Section 13(d) of the Act, and the filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be deemed an admission that either RA Capital, Dr. Kolchinsky, or Mr. Shah is the beneficial owner of such securities for any other purpose. |
| (b) | The address of the principal business office of each of the Reporting Persons is 200 Berkeley Street, 18th Floor, Boston, MA 02116. |
| (c) | The Fund is a private investment vehicle. RA Capital provides investment management services to the Fund, the Nexus Fund, the Nexus Fund II, the Nexus Fund III and the Account. The principal occupation of each of Dr. Kolchinsky and Mr. Shah is investment management. |
| (d) | During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors). |
| (e) | During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree of final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. |

On the Closing Date, the Issuer, the Sponsor, and certain stockholders of Freenome, including the Fund, the Nexus Fund, the Nexus Fund II, the Nexus Fund III and the Account entered into that certain investor rights agreement (the "Investor Rights Agreement"). Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, among other things, the Issuer agreed that, within 30 calendar days following the Closing Date, the Issuer will file with the Commission (at the Issuer's sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of certain shares of Common Stock held by or issuable to the parties thereto (the "Resale Registration Statement"), and the Issuer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Resale Registration Statement declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof.

The Investor Rights Agreement will terminate on the earlier of (a) the five (5) year anniversary of the date of the Investor Rights Agreement or (b) with respect to any holder party thereto, on the date that such holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities (as defined therein).
