Item 1. Security and Issuer
This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to Schedule 13D supplements and amends the Statement on Schedule 13D of OrbiMed Advisors LLC, OrbiMed Capital GP VII LLC, and OrbiMed Capital LLC originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 26, 2020 (the “Statement”). This Statement relates to the common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”) of Repare Therapeutics Inc., a corporation organized under the Business Corporations Act (Quèbec) (the “Issuer” ), with its principal executive offices located at 7210 Frederick-Banting, Suite 100, Montrèal, Quèbec, Canada H4S 2A1. The Shares are listed on the NASDAQ Global Market under the ticker symbol “RPTX” .. Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable.
On November 1, 2021, the Issuer completed a public offering pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to issue and sell to the participants 4,000,000 Shares at a price to the public of $22.00 per Share (the “Offering”). In addition, the Issuer granted the underwriters an option to purchase, at the public offering price less any underwriting discounts and commissions, up to an additional 600,000 Shares. The Reporting Persons (as defined below) did not participate in the Offering. As a result of the Offering, the Issuer’s total number of outstanding Shares increased to 41,109,506 (the “Outstanding Share Increase”). As a result of the Outstanding Share Increase and the transactions described in Item 5(c) below, the percentage of outstanding Shares that the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own was reduced by more than one percent of the Issuer’s Shares outstanding since the filing of the Statement.
Item 2. Identity and Background
(a) This Schedule 13D is being filed by OrbiMed Advisors LLC (“OrbiMed Advisors”), OrbiMed Capital GP VII LLC (“OrbiMed GP”) and OrbiMed Capital LLC (“OrbiMed Capital”) (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”).
(b) — (c), (f) OrbiMed Advisors, a limited liability company organized under the laws of Delaware and a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, is the managing member or general partner of certain entities as more particularly described in Item 6 below.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
Not applicable.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
The Shares were initially acquired by the Reporting Persons for the purpose of making an investment in the Issuer and not with the intention of acquiring control of the Issuer’s business on behalf of the Reporting Persons’ respective advisory clients.
The Reporting Persons from time to time intend to review their investment in the Issuer on the basis of various factors, including the Issuer’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for the Issuer’s Shares in particular, as well as other developments and other investment opportunities. Based upon such review, the Reporting Persons will take such actions in the future as the Reporting Persons may deem appropriate in light of the circumstances existing from time to time. If the Reporting Persons believe that further investment in the Issuer is attractive, whether because of the market price of Shares or otherwise, they may acquire Shares or other securities of the Issuer either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Similarly, depending on market and other factors, the Reporting Persons may determine to dispose of some or all of the Shares currently owned by the Reporting Persons or otherwise acquired by the Reporting Persons either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.
Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have not formulated any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer or the disposition of securities of the Issuer, (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of the assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board, (e) any material change in the Issuer’s capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer, (f) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure, (g) any change in the Issuer’s charter or bylaws or other instrument corresponding thereto or other action which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person, (h) causing a class of the Issuer’s securities to be deregistered or delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association, (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

(a) — (b) The following disclosure is based upon 41,109,506 outstanding Shares of the Issuer, as set forth in the Issuer’s Rule 424(b)(5) Prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 28, 2021.

(i) transfers pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer for all outstanding Common Shares or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other similar transaction approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and made to all holders of the Company’s securities involving a change of control of the Company (including, without limitation, the entering into any lock-up, voting or similar agreement pursuant to which the undersigned may agree to transfer, sell, tender or otherwise dispose of Common Shares or other such securities in connection with such transaction, or vote any Common Shares or other such securities in favor of any such transaction); provided that in the event that such tender offer, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, such securities held by the undersigned shall remain subject to the provisions of this agreement.
In addition, the undersigned agrees that (a) without the prior written consent of the Representatives on behalf of the Underwriters, it will not, during the Restricted Period, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any Common Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares and (b) in connection with the Public Offering, it waives any and all notice requirements and rights with respect to the registration of any such Common Shares pursuant to any agreement, understanding or otherwise to which the undersigned is a party. In addition, the undersigned hereby waives any and all preemptive rights, participation rights, resale rights, rights of first refusal and similar rights that the undersigned may have in connection with the Public Offering or in connection with any reorganization that may be consummated before or in connection with the Public Offering. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s Common Shares except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.
For purposes of this agreement, (i) “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage, domestic partnership or adoption, not more remote than first cousin, and (ii) “change of control” shall mean the consummation of any bona fide third party tender offer, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other similar transaction the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), or group of persons, other than the Company, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) of greater than 50% of total voting power of all outstanding voting securities of the Company (or the surviving entity).
In the event that a release is granted to any Major Holder (as defined below) other than the undersigned relating to the lock-up restrictions set forth above for Common Shares, the same percentage of Common Shares held by the undersigned shall be immediately and fully released (the “Pro-rata Release”) on the same terms from any remaining lock-up restrictions set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no waiver or termination will constitute a Pro-rata Release, if: (a) such release is granted from such lockup restrictions to any individual party or parties (other than shareholders subject to Section 16 reporting with respect to the Company under the Exchange Act) to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of Common Shares or other securities in an amount up to an aggregate of $1,000,000, or (b) such waiver or termination, in full or in part, is in connection with any underwritten public offering, whether or not such offering or sale is wholly or partially a secondary offering of the Common Shares during the Restricted Period (a “Follow-on Offering”); provided that the undersigned, to the extent the undersigned has a contractual right to demand or require the registration of the undersigned’s Common Shares or otherwise “piggyback” on a registration statement filed by the Company for the offer and sale of its Common Shares, (i) shall be offered the opportunity to participate on a pro rata basis consistent with such contractual rights in such Follow-on Offering and on pricing terms that are no less favorable than the terms of the Follow-on Offering or (ii) such contractual rights are waived pursuant to the terms thereof; and in the event the Underwriters make the determination to cut back the number of securities to be sold by shareholders in the Follow-on Offering, such cut back shall be on a basis consistent with such contractual rights.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, if the Representatives in their sole discretion determine that a record or beneficial owner of Common Shares, or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares, should be granted an early Pro-rata Release due to circumstances of emergency or hardship, then the undersigned shall not have any right to be granted a release pursuant to the terms of this paragraph. In the event that any percentage of such Common Shares released from the lock-up restrictions are subject to any restrictions of the type set forth in clause (1) or (2) of the second paragraph of this Agreement, the same restrictions shall be applicable to the release of the same percentage of Common Shares held by the undersigned. In the event that the undersigned is released from any of its obligations under this Agreement (pursuant to this paragraph), or by virtue of this Agreement (pursuant to this paragraph), becomes entitled to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of any Common Shares prior to the date that is 60 days after the date of the Prospectus, the Representatives shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to provide notification of such to the undersigned within three business days thereof; provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not give rise to any claim or liability against the Representatives or the Underwriters. For purposes of this Agreement, each of the following persons is a “Major Holder”: each officer and director of the Company and each record or beneficial owner, as of the date hereof, of more than 1% of the outstanding shares of securities of the Company (for purposes of determining record or beneficial ownership of a shareholder, all shares of securities held by investment funds affiliated with such shareholders shall be aggregated).
The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriters are relying upon this agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Public Offering. The undersigned further understands that this agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.
Whether or not the Public Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. Any Public Offering will only be made pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriters.
The undersigned understands that, if (i) the Representatives, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, informs the other in writing, prior to the execution of the Underwriting Agreement, that it has determined not to proceed with the Public Offering, (ii) the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the securities to be sold thereunder, (iii) the registration statement related to the Public Offering is withdrawn prior to the execution of the Underwriting Agreement or (iv) the Underwriting Agreement is not executed on or before November 30, 2021, then, in each case, this agreement shall automatically, and without any action on the part of any other party, be of no further force and effect, and the undersigned shall be automatically released from all obligations under this agreement.
The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters have not provided any recommendation or investment advice nor have the Underwriters solicited any action from the undersigned with respect to the Public Offering of the Shares and the undersigned has consulted their own legal, accounting, financial, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent deemed appropriate. The undersigned further acknowledges and agrees that, although the Underwriters may provide certain Regulation Best Interest and Form CRS disclosures or other related documentation to you in connection with the Public Offering, the Underwriters are not making a recommendation to you to participate in the Public Offering or sell any Shares at the price determined in the Public Offering, and nothing set forth in such disclosures or documentation is intended to suggest that any Underwriter is making such a recommendation. The undersigned further acknowledges and agrees that none of the Underwriters has made any recommendation or provided any investment or other advice to the undersigned with respect to this Lock-Up Agreement or the subject matter hereof, and the undersigned has consulted its own legal, accounting, financial, regulatory, tax and other advisors with respect to this Lock-Up Agreement and the subject matter hereof to the extent the undersigned has deemed appropriate.
This agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
Very truly yours,
