 Item 1.01
 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 On June 11, 2026, Enliven Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Barclays Capital Inc. as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to the issuance and sale in a public offering (the “Offering”) of 8,933,334 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a price to the public of $37.50 per share (the “Firm Shares”), and, in lieu of Firm Shares to certain investors, pre-funded warrants to purchase 1,733,333 Shares (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) at a price to the public of $37.499 per Pre-Funded Warrant, which represents the per share public offering price for the Firm Shares less the $0.001 exercise price for each such Pre-Funded Warrant. Additionally, the Company has granted the Underwriters an option exercisable for 30 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement to purchase up to an additional 1,600,000 shares of common stock (together with the Firm Shares, the “Shares”) at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. All of the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants in the Offering are being sold by the Company.
 The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering are expected to be approximately $376.0 million, or approximately $432.4 million if the Underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional shares, in each case after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Offering is expected to close on June 15, 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
 The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by such parties.
 The Offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-289582) (the “Registration Statement”), which became effective automatically upon filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 13, 2025, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement, dated June 11, 2026.
 Each Pre-Funded Warrant will have an exercise price of $0.001 per share. The exercise price of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of each Pre-Funded Warrant are subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the common stock. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable from the date of issuance and do not expire. Each Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable, in the holder’s discretion, by (i) payment in full in immediately available funds for the number of shares of common stock purchased upon exercise, or (ii) a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of common stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Pre-Funded Warrant. Under the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Company may not effect the exercise of any Pre-Funded Warrants, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Pre-Funded Warrant that, upon giving effect to such exercise, would result in the aggregate number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates) exceeding 4.99% (or at the election of such holder prior to the issuance of such warrant, 9.99%) of the total number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding following such exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants, which percentage may be changed at the holder’s election to a higher or lower percentage not in excess of 19.99% upon at least 61 days’ notice to the Company.
 In the event of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Pre-Funded Warrants), a holder of Pre-Funded Warrants will be entitled to receive, upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property that such holder would have received had they exercised the Pre-Funded Warrants immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction without regard to any limitations on exercise contained in the Pre-Funded Warrants.

 The foregoing descriptions of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement and the Pre-Funded Warrants do not purport to be complete and are each qualified in their entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement and the form of Pre-Funded Warrant, respectively, which are filed as Exhibit 1.1 and Exhibit 4.1 hereto and are incorporated herein by reference.
 A copy of the opinion of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, P.C. relating to the validity of the Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants is filed as Exhibit 5.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement.
  

 Item 7.01

 The information contained in this Item 7.01, including the related information set forth in the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, is being “furnished” and shall not be deemed “filed” with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section and is not incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
 Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
 This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements (including within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) concerning the Company and other matters that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. These statements may discuss goals, intentions and expectations as to future plans, events, or otherwise, based on current beliefs of the management of the Company, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management of the Company. Forward-looking statements generally include statements that are predictive in nature and depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, and include words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “likely,” “believe,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” and other similar expressions or the negative or plural of these words, or other similar expressions that are predictions or indicate future events or prospects, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Statements that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K include, but are not limited to, statements about the Company’s expectations regarding the expected net proceeds from the Offering and the expected closing date of the Offering. Forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties and are not guarantees of future performance. Actual results could differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement as a result of various risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation: uncertainties related to market conditions and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions related to the Offering, and other risks and uncertainties, including those more fully described in the Company’s filings with the SEC, which may be found in the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-K and 10-Q filed with the SEC and in the Company’s future reports to be filed with the SEC. Except as required by applicable law, the Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statement, or to make any other forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. However, readers should carefully review the reports and documents the Company files or furnishes from time to time with the SEC, particularly its Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on
 Form 8-K.
