Theriva Biologics Receives Rare Pediatric Drug Designation From FDA For Treatment Of Retinoblastoma

Benzinga

By Kyle Anthony, Benzinga The growing prevalence of cancer is not limited to adults; it is also afflicting children. An estimated 15,780 children between birth and 19 years of age are diagnosed with cancer each year in the U.S., according to the American Childhood Cancer Organization. Approximately 1 in 285 children in the U.S. will be diagnosed with cancer before their 20th birthday. Globally, there are more than 300,000 children diagnosed with cancer each year, and the rate of childhood cancer is slowly rising; cancer cases increased to 177 per million in 2019 from 165 per million in 2003. Recently, Theriva Biologics (AMEX: TOVX), the clinical-stage immuno-oncology company developing therapies for difficult-to-treat cancers, was granted Rare Pediatric Drug Designation (RPDD) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for VCN-01 for the treatment of retinoblastoma; the most common type of eye cancer in children. Retinoblastoma Presents Significant Treatment Challenges Retinoblastoma is a tumor that originates in the retina and accounts for approximately 2% of all childhood cancers. Some 200 to 300 children are diagnosed each year in the U.S., and the cancer is most common among infants and young children. The average age of a child when diagnosed is two years of age. Approximately three out of four children with retinoblastoma have a tumor in only one eye (known as unilateral retinoblastoma). When both eyes are affected it is known as bilateral retinoblastoma. Although the chances of developing retinoblastoma are statistically low, the challenge of preserving life while preventing the loss of an eye, blindness, and other severe consequences that diminish both lifespan and quality of life remains significant. Furthermore, in low-resource countries, children with retinoblastoma face a higher risk of losing their eyes and succumbing to metastatic disease. Recently, market research and industry consulting firm Spherical Insights assessed the global retinoblastoma treatment market size to be $2.5 billion in 2023; and it is expected to grow to $3.8 billion by 2033. Rare Pediatric Drug Designation For VCN-01 As the name suggests, the Rare Pediatric Drug Designation is a special status given to drugs explicitly developed for treating rare diseases that affect children. This designation is part of a broader effort to encourage the development of medications for conditions not commonly addressed due to the small number of patients, particularly in the pediatric population. For Theriva Biologics, this designation comes with a key incentive: if a Biologics License Application for VCN-01 for the treatment of retinoblastoma is approved by the FDA, Theriva says it may be eligible to receive a Priority Review Voucher (PRV) that can be redeemed to receive a priority review for any subsequent marketing application or may be transferred or sold. PRVs have previously been sold by different companies for around $100M. “The FDA’s decision to grant rare pediatric drug designation to VCN-01 highlights the urgent need for new treatment options for pediatric patients with retinoblastoma. We are encouraged by this important step forward and, in parallel, continue to work closely with leading physicians and regulatory agencies to refine our clinical strategy for VCN-01 as an adjunct to chemotherapy in pediatric patients with advanced retinoblastoma,” said Steven A. Shallcross, CEO of Theriva Biologics. “Most recently, results from the investigator-sponsored Phase 1 trial evaluating the safety and activity of intravitreal VCN-01 in pediatric patients with refractory retinoblastoma were determined to be positive by the study Monitoring Committee. Data from this study will further inform our clinical development pathway in this area of high unmet need,” he said. With VCN-01 receiving RPDD from the U.S. FDA, this milestone speaks to the drug's efficacy and long-run potential. As such, the social benefit that Theriva Biologics provides could continue to grow and have increased industry resonance. Featured photo by Ani Kolleshi on Unsplash.

Poster Presentations, Upcoming Human Trials, Recently Secured Funding And More: Glucotrack’s Plans To Transform The Continuous Glucose Monitoring Market

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Managing diabetes has gotten an overhaul thanks to continuous glucose monitoring devices (CGM). Glucotrack Inc. (NASDAQ: GCTK), the Rutherford, New Jersey medical technology company that makes a continuous blood glucose monitoring (CBGM) device, is seeking to position itself to transform the glucose monitoring market. It is doing so through what it says is a game-changing medical technology that overcomes the challenges of the existing devices on the market, including the lack of real-time accuracy, the need for frequent sensor changes and concerns regarding comfort and wearability. Glucotrack’s implantable Continuous Blood Glucose Monitor (CBGM) measures glucose in the blood, something no other known competitor is offering to date. By measuring glucose in the blood instead of glucose in interstitial fluids – which is what most other devices measure – users get an accurate, real-time reading. Plus, Glucotrack’s implant can last up to three years, compared to less than one year for many of the continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices on the market. Patients don’t have to worry about sticking an adhesive to their body or be concerned about it falling off during physical activity, whether it's swimming or hot yoga. The CBGM, which also requires minimal calibration, eliminates the hassle and discomfort of a wearable that requires frequent replacement, the company said. Making The Rounds Glucotrack has been busy getting the word out about the potential of its CBGM. In June, it presented two posters at the American Diabetes Association (ADA) 84th Scientific Sessions discussing preclinical animal studies and a sensor longevity simulation modeling for its CBGM. The ADA Scientific Sessions is one of the premier diabetes conferences which provides a platform for the latest advancements in diabetes research, prevention and care. This annual meeting provides researchers and healthcare professionals with the opportunity to share ideas and learn about cutting-edge technologies and breakthroughs in diabetes research and diabetes-related conditions. Glucotrack also presented an emerging science industry poster at the Association of Diabetes Care and Education Specialists annual conference, which took place from Aug. 9 to 12. The poster presented market research data on the acceptance of the company’s CBGM concept among people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. It highlighted that out of 757 respondents with type 1 and type 2 diabetes using a variety of insulin regimens, there was a positive sentiment towards the CBGM concept, with over 50% of potential users open to adopting the product. In other words, the CBGM concept could be a viable alternative to existing products on the market. PreClinical Trials In The Bag Glucotrack’s data so far seems to back up its claims, including its recent 90-day preclinical study demonstrating the sustained accuracy of its CBGM. The second long-term preclinical study for its CBGM showed a Mean Absolute Relative Difference (MARD) of 4.7% at day 90, which is considered highly accurate for a continuous glucose monitor, reports Glucotrack. MARD is a key metric used to assess the accuracy of glucose monitoring devices, measuring the average difference between the CBGM device’s measurement and a reference measurement, most often obtained via capillary blood glucose. Lower values indicate better performance, said Glucotrack. The company said the 90-day preclinical study, which included a larger number of animal subjects and a longer duration than the initial 60-day study announced earlier this year, further validates the CBGM’s sustained accuracy and performance. “We are again very pleased with the performance of our sensor during a long-term preclinical study and look forward to moving into human clinical trials,” stated Paul Goode, PhD, president and CEO of Glucotrack. “Our CBGM’s ability to continuously measure blood glucose for 3 years with accuracy, minimal calibration and without a wearable device represents a significant advancement in glucose monitoring. We believe this technology has the potential to greatly improve the quality of life for people with diabetes by providing a more convenient and discreet monitoring solution,” he said. Cashing In All of these developments seem to have brought Glucotrack investment money; in July, the company secured $4 million in funding from its leading shareholder to support its upcoming first in-human clinical trial. It also helps the company that it has a deep leadership bench and board with years of experience. Take Goode, for starters. He has decades of experience developing innovative medical technologies in the implantables and glucose monitoring space for big-name medical technology companies, including DexCom Inc. (NASDAQ: DXCM), a global continuous glucose monitoring company. Goode is a named inventor on over 150 issued patents, including over 100 relating to Dexcom’s continuous glucose sensing technology. Meanwhile, Mark Tapsak, Ph.D., VP of Sensor Technology, has held senior positions at diabetes management companies, including as senior scientist at DexCom. Further, the bench just got deeper with the appointment of Andy Balo – a former DexCom executive – to the board. Balo brings decades of regulatory, clinical and quality experience in the medical technology industry. In 2002, he joined DexCom as part of the original executive team where he remained for the next 22 years, playing a key role in shaping the company’s future. During his tenure, he was responsible for numerous glucose monitoring regulatory submissions and clinical trials worldwide, and coordinated quality activities across multiple manufacturing facilities. With a forecasted CAGR of 10.3% over 2024-2034, the continuous glucose monitoring market could be poised to take off, and Glucotrack wants to play a role in expanding options for patients with its technology. With preclinical trials already being in the bag, and human trials up next - the company feels its commitment to that goal is progressing steadily toward fruition.

RedHill's Opaganib Shows Diabetes And Obesity Potential With Positive In Vivo Results

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga A potential, previously unexplored pathway for fighting diabetes and obesity-related disorders may have been unveiled by RedHill Biopharma (NASDAQ: RDHL), a specialty biopharmaceutical company, and its partner Apogee Biotechnology Corp., who are busy developing what may be an interesting new approach in the obesity and diabetes market. The company is testing opaganib in a range of metabolic disease models designed to show its potential to prevent and treat type 2 diabetes and other obesity-related diseases and recently received positive in vivo results. The positive results of early trials are good news for RedHill Biopharma given the global obesity-diabetes drug market opportunity is huge, projected to reach $100 billion by 2030. It’s being driven largely by Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) inhibitors like Novo Nordisk’s (NYSE: NVO) Ozempic and Wegovy (semaglutide), Eli Lilly’s (NYSE: LLY) Trulicity (dulaglutide) and Mounjaro (tirzepatide) and sodium glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors such as Boehringer Ingelheim’s Jardiance (Empagliflozin), reports RedHill. If RedHill is right about opaganib, it could join those ranks. “Sphingolipid metabolism is implicated in insulin resistance, β-cell disruption, adipocyte function, inflammation and immune regulation, vascular complications and energy metabolism – all significant components of obesity, diabetes and their associated complications,” said Charles D. Smith, Ph.D. Founder and CEO of Apogee Biotechnology Corp., Redhill’s partner who led the testing of opaganib for the treatment and prevention of type 2 diabetes and other obesity-related disorders. “Opaganib’s ability to modulate multiple signaling pathways through simultaneous inhibition of three sphingolipid-metabolizing enzymes in human cells provides a strong rationale for evaluation of opaganib in obesity-related disorders.” Opaganib Slows Weight Gain Earlier this week RedHill announced that in vivo studies conducted by RedHill’s partner, Apogee, yielded positive results. The studies looked at the impact opaganib had on weight gain and glucose tolerance in a high-fat diet (HFD) model. They demonstrated opaganib suppressed HFD-induced body weight gain, loss of glucose tolerance and fat deposition. Additionally, opaganib reduced weight gain and restored glucose tolerance in an already obese HFD model, suggesting its potential for treating, not just preventing, obesity-related disorders, reports RedHill Biopharma. “Sphingolipid metabolism is a key pathway in many diseases, including obesity, but has not been adequately examined as a therapeutic target for human therapy,” said Dr. Mark Levitt, Chief Scientific Officer at RedHill. “Opaganib, which acts as a sphingosine competitor, is the first clinical drug to target three key enzymes in this pathway.” With multiple U.S. government collaborations ongoing, opaganib, RedHill Biopharma’s first-in-class new chemical entity with anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and antiviral activity, is a host-directed, potentially broad-acting, orally administered small molecule drug with demonstrated safety & efficacy profiles. It is in development for multiple oncology, viral, inflammatory and diabetes and obesity-related indications, including COVID-19, Ebola, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and radio/chemical protection. More Than Fighting Diabetes But it’s not just in fighting diabetes and obesity-related disorders where RedHill is making progress. Adding to its commercialization by RedHill in the U.S., the company just launched Talicia (omeprazole magnesium, amoxicillin and rifabutin) in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) – making it available by prescription to treat adults with Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori ) infection. Talicia is the first approved low-dose rifabutin-containing all-in-one combination product in the UAE specifically designed to treat H. pylori. The commercial launch of Talicia in the UAE triggers RedHill’s eligibility for additional potential milestone payments, minimum sales payments and tiered royalties up to mid-teens on net sales. Talicia is a novel, fixed-dose, all-in-one oral capsule combination of two antibiotics (amoxicillin and rifabutin) and a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) (omeprazole). In November 2019, Talicia was approved by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of H. pylori infection in adults. In a pivotal Phase 3 study, Talicia demonstrated 84% eradication of H. pylori infection in the intent-to-treat (ITT) group vs. 58% in the active comparator arm (p<0.0001). “As one of the strongest risk factors for gastric cancer, H. pylori is a major public health concern,” said Rick Scruggs, President & Chief Commercial Officer at RedHill. “With 41% of the UAE population infected by H. pylori and the alarming failure rates of clarithromycin-based therapies, there is a significant medical need for a highly effective first-line H. pylori therapy. Our efforts to make Talicia available to patients in more countries continue as we work to explore additional opportunities with existing and potential partners.” From preventing diabetes and obesity-related diseases to fighting H. pylori, RedHill Biopharma seems to be making strides with its key drug compounds. Early testing shows promise, potentially making this a company worth watching. To learn more about RedHill Biopharma’s pipeline, click here. Featured photo by Diana Polekhina on Unsplash.

News Release

Sector Spotlight: Top 4 Basket of Diagnostic Stocks (EXAS, GH, ILMN, LUDG)

LUDG EXAS GH ILMN

Big diagnostic companies soared during the pandemic thanks in part to mandated government testing, but once the at-home kits arrived and insurance companies were forced to foot the bill, diagnostic companies with COVID-19 revenues collapsed. Many diagnostic companies got caught in the downdraft because they thought the testing gravy train was going to continue and ramped up capacity instead of diversifying. The opportunity in the sector comes from diagnostic companies that chose to reinvent themselves by developing early cancer screening tests. During the pandemic, regular cancer screenings were put off to conserve medical resources toward COVID. Since the pandemic is over, it's worth reexamining beat-up diagnostic companies that were able to adapt and are now on the upswing. The top diagnostic stock to put on your radar is Exact Sciences (NASDAQ: EXAS). Most investors will recognize their at-home cancer screening kit is called cologuard which tests for colon cancer. Those primetime commercials you’ve likely heard mean they’ve established their brand along with a national audience. Testing volume dropped measurably during the pandemic as early cancer screening was pushed aside, but now their testing volumes are ramping back up and helping chew through the testing backlog created by the pandemic. It has taken a couple of years for EXAS testing volumes to return to pre-pandemic levels. In Q2 2024 the company had a record 1.0 million screenings and got back on its growth trajectory, helped by an expansion of cancer indications that include breast, prostate, and colon cancer. It also started its pipeline expansion into precision oncology. EXAS also made a move into a blood-based multi-cancer space when they purchased Thrive Early Detection Corp. for $2.15 billion. This purchase turned into a business vertical that not only does a deeper dive into the hereditary nature of the cancer but also profiles the tumor in such a way that it assists in the optimization of treatment regimens. The company has $2.6 billion in trailing revenues and a current market cap of $10.3 billion and is an overall leader in the diagnostic sector with solid earnings and a balance sheet for risk averse shareholders looking for a solid return from a company that consistently beats expectations. Guardant Health Inc. (NASDAQ: GH) has the first FDA-approved primary screening blood test for colorectal cancer (CRC). The test is called Shield and it is covered under the Medicare reimbursement program. Shield has a sensitivity of 83% and a 90% specificity (false positives) for advanced neoplasia (polyps that could turn cancerous). The company has $600 million in trailing revenues and a current market cap of $4.0 billion. They call it a non-invasive test, but you still have to get pricked. Another way to play the diagnostic market is to look at the top industry suppliers. llumina Inc. (NASDAQ: ILMN) is a medtech company that makes genetic testing equipment that enables the large-scale analysis of genetic variations. The company manufactures next-generation sequencing (NGS) platforms, microarrays, and bioinformatics software. Their machines are used in genomics research, clinical applications, and molecular diagnostics, which means their customers are research centers, pharma companies, academic institutions, and clinical research organizations. The company recently spun off their diagnostics business called Grail Inc. (NASDAQ: GRAL) which is an early cancer screening company for people that are not symptomatic, enabling a proactive approach to diagnosing cancer earlier. ILMN funded GRAL with a one-time cash payment of $923 million. The company's leading product is a multi-cancer early detection blood test called Galleri. The test screens for 50+ types of cancer by reading the DNA sequence. The backbone of the testing technology is from the Illumina platform and over 20,000 participants in large clinical trial studies. The test kits cost around $1100 each, and they are awaiting FDA approval for the test. Investors looking for a little more alpha should look at this diagnostic testing company disruptor and its game changing technology. Ludwig Enterprises Inc. (OTCMKTS: LUDG) is an exceptional OTC company in the diagnostic screening sector, boasting mRNA testing technology that has the potential to revolutionize the multibillion-dollar diagnostic screening industry with its less invasive tests. CEO Marvin S. Hausman MD stated, “mRNA is the language that interprets DNA and is the future of medicine.” Although the company currently has no revenue, it is gearing up for an exciting product launch in October, coinciding with Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which is expected to kickstart its revenue stream. To spearhead its viral marketing campaign, the company has enlisted a seasoned veteran. LUDG’s Lab Developed Test (LDT) will initially target breast cancer screening, but the technology can be easily adapted to other inflammatory-driven cancers. These LDTs are processed at the Genetics Institute of America, a CLIA lab, which allows for quicker product launches as they do not require FDA approval. The company has developed a unique cancer screening approach by measuring mRNA at the nucleotide level. Their test uses AI algorithms to create a personalized inflammatory index, comparing it to a database of over 3,200 mRNA samples collected from 40+ clinical centers over five years. This method, particularly for breast cancer, boasts a 97% test sensitivity, indicating when further evaluation is needed. The LUDG test kits will cost $249 and will follow proven successful direct-to-consumer viral marketing strategies driven by targeted machine learning algorithmic technologies. The CEO of LUDG Hausman has come out of retirement to lead this technology to commercialization. He is a Medical Doctor, Immunologist, and board certified Urological Surgeon. Investors in LUDG will have an experienced CEO at the helm with a proven track record of successful exits. One of his most notable exits was when he sold his NYSE company Medco Research to King Pharmaceuticals, which was ultimately acquired by Pfizer (NYSE: PFE). LUDG’s Revealia breast cancer test is very much like the EXAS Cologuard test. As investors move back into diagnostic stocks, these 4 represent a diversified basket every investor should put on their radar. Disclaimers: RazorPitch Inc.

Continuous Blood Glucose Monitoring Can Materially Improve The Quality Of Life For People With Diabetes – Glucotrack Wants To Make It Easier

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga You can’t wing it when it comes to diabetes. Everything you eat and drink, the amount of physical activity you engage in and the medicines you take must be monitored closely. Keeping your blood glucose level within its target range is vital in preventing other medical issues. But managing diabetes can be cumbersome and intrusive. The main way of tracking glucose in your blood is via a glucose meter which requires you to prick your finger several times a day to get a sample of your blood. These meters provide blood glucose readings – which is considered the most accurate form of glucose monitoring – however testing must be done often and even then users can miss highs and lows in their glucose and the direction in which their glucose is changing. This type of monitoring is also a constant reminder of the disease. A More Modern Approach Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) offers a better alternative. With it, your glucose level is monitored automatically through a device worn on the body 24 hours a day. It enables you to review your glucose levels to make well-informed decisions and adjust your behavior on a continual basis. These devices also enable people with diabetes to review how their glucose levels change over hours, days, weeks and months. Using a CGM device can help patients better manage glucose levels, reduce the number of low glucose events and decrease or eliminate the number of finger pricks. If your glucose rises or drops beyond a certain threshold, you’ll be alerted. The convenience is a big reason why the market for CGM devices is large and growing. In 2024 it is forecast to hit $16.2 billion and reach $44.6 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 10.3%. Driving the demand is a need among patients to find a more convenient way to manage this chronic disease. After all, life doesn’t have to stop just because you have been diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetes is a disease that's growing in the U.S. and around the globe, impacting people of all ages. The total number of people around the globe who suffer from diabetes is projected to reach 643 million by 2030 and soar to 783 million by 2045. While adults are the most likely to be diagnosed with diabetes, it impacts children as well at a growing rate. Not Every CGM Device Is The Same But when it comes to CGM, not all devices are created equally. The duration that the monitoring lasts, the placement of the device, the type of glucose being tested and how often data is received differ from one manufacturer to the next. Take DexCom Inc. (NASDAQ: DXCM) for starters. Its CGM device consists of sensors worn under the skin that must be reapplied every 10 to 15 days, depending on the system, and which monitor glucose data every five minutes. The results are accurate but they measure interstitial glucose, which can lag 10 to 15 minutes behind blood glucose, so there is a delay versus blood glucose readings. Meanwhile, FreeStyle Libre by Abbott Laboratories (NYSE: ABT) is a CGM device that also monitors glucose from interstitial fluids just underneath the skin rather than glucose in the blood. It uses a sensor that is worn on the back of the arm and measures glucose every minute versus every five minutes. The sensor has to be reapplied every 14 or 15 days, depending on the system. Eversense, a CGM device made by Senseonics Holdings Inc. (NYSE: SENS), is another type that works by implanting a small sensor under your skin, along with a transmitter worn on top of the skin. It measures the glucose in interstitial fluids every five minutes and the sensor works for up to 180 days before it needs to be swapped out. While all these devices are much easier to use than multiple finger pricks a day, they do require some intervention after a period of time and don’t measure glucose in the blood. And, they each require an on-body wearable, so there is the possibility of skin irritation and sensors falling off early or during physical activities like swimming or hot yoga. Additionally, having a wearable on the body reduces the amount of discretion that some people with diabetes desire. A Potentially Better Way Glucotrack, Inc. (NASDAQ: GCTK) is different. The Rutherford, New Jersey, medical technology company focused on the design, development and commercialization of novel technologies for people with diabetes has developed a Continuous Blood Glucose Monitor (CBGM) that aims to overcome the challenges of today’s CGM, including delays due to the interstitial lag, the need for frequent sensor changes and concerns regarding comfort and wearability. Unlike the others on the market, Glucotrack's device measures glucose in the blood. Because Glucotrack’s implantable CBGM measures glucose in the blood, it doesn’t have the lag time associated with subcutaneous sensors that measure glucose in interstitial fluid. The ability to directly measure blood glucose in real-time and on a continuous basis enables a less burdensome approach to glucose monitoring for extended periods of time. Additionally, with no on body wearable, the CBGM offers increased discretion to the user, making it potentially less intrusive to daily living. What’s more, Glucotrack’s implant can last up to three years, compared to months for the other CGM devices on the market. Patients don’t have to worry about sticking an adhesive to their body or be concerned about it falling off during physical activity. And, with minimal calibration required, the CBGM eliminates the hassle and discomfort of a wearable that requires frequent replacement. Monitoring glucose and thus living with diabetes can become easier with Glucotrack. Proof Through Studies Glucotrack has data to back up its claim. It recently completed a second long-term preclinical study for its CBGM device, which showed a Mean Absolute Relative Difference (MARD) of 4.7% at day 90, which is considered highly accurate for a continuous glucose monitor, the company reports. MARD is a key metric used to assess the accuracy of glucose monitoring devices, measuring the average difference between the CBGM device’s measurement and a reference measurement, most often obtained via capillary blood glucose. Lower values indicate better performance, said Glucotrack. The company said the 90-day preclinical study, which included a larger number of animal subjects and a longer duration than the initial 60-day study announced earlier this year, further validates the CBGM sustained accuracy and performance. “We are again very pleased with the performance of our sensor during a long-term preclinical study and look forward to moving into human clinical trials” stated Paul Goode, Ph.D., president and CEO of Glucotrack. “Our CBGM’s ability to continuously measure blood glucose for three years with accuracy, minimal calibration and without a wearable represents a significant advancement in glucose monitoring. We believe this technology has the potential to greatly improve the quality of life for people with diabetes by providing a more convenient and discreet monitoring solution.” The company presented preclinical animal data and longevity data at the 84th Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association (ADA) held Jun. 21-24, 2024 in Orlando, Florida. The company also provided market research data showing acceptability of the CBGM with a large number of people with diabetes at the Association of Diabetes Care and Education Specialists (ADCES) 2024 Annual Conference held Aug. 9-12, 2024, in New Orleans, Louisiana. Diabetes is a chronic disease that’s poised to impact hundreds of millions of people around the globe. Managing the disease today is cumbersome and intrusive, even with the technological advances that the current generation of CGM devices have brought. Glucotrack wants to change that and believes its device is the answer. If preclinical test results are any indication, the company may be on to something that could be life-transforming for people with diabetes.

News Release

The Future of Medicine: Key Biotech Stocks to Watch

OSTX ATNM PBYI CRBP

In today's rapidly advancing healthcare landscape, biotech companies are playing a crucial role in addressing some of the most challenging medical conditions. With a focus on innovation and precision, these companies are developing next-generation treatments and therapies that offer new hope for patients and present compelling opportunities for investors. Unlike many traditional sectors, biotech operates at the cutting edge of science and technology, often driving significant progress in areas such as targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and genetic research. As these companies push forward with their groundbreaking work, they not only stand to revolutionize patient care but also present promising prospects for those looking to invest in the future of medicine. Let’s take a closer look at four biotech companies making waves in the industry. OS Therapies, Inc. (NYSE-A: OSTX) OS Therapies, Inc. (NYSE-A: OSTX) is carving out a unique position in the oncology landscape with its innovative approaches to treating cancer. The company, still in its clinical stage, focuses on developing therapies for osteosarcoma and other solid tumors. Their flagship product, OST-HER2, utilizes a novel immunotherapy platform that leverages the immune-boosting properties of Listeria bacteria to target the HER2 protein—a key player in several cancers. The company's pipeline includes OST-HER2, an immunotherapy currently in a Phase 2b trial targeting resected, recurrent osteosarcoma. With the trial fully enrolled and results expected in the fourth quarter of 2024, investors are keenly awaiting data that could significantly impact the stock’s trajectory. OST-HER2 has already garnered notable designations such as Fast-Track, Orphan Drug, and Rare Pediatric Disease from the FDA, underscoring its potential to address unmet medical needs. In addition to OST-HER2, OSTX is advancing its tunable Antibody Drug Conjugate (tADC) platform. This next-generation technology employs pH-sensitive silicon-based linkers, known as SiLinkers, designed to deliver multiple therapeutic agents directly to tumors, minimizing harm to healthy cells. Early preclinical data from this platform shows promise, positioning OS Therapies as a company with innovative solutions that could transform cancer treatment. Recent milestones further highlight the company’s growth potential. OSTX successfully raised $6.4 million in its initial public offering (IPO) on July 31, 2024. This funding not only bolsters their financial position but also supports ongoing and upcoming clinical trials. Additionally, the company has entered into Johnson & Johnson Innovation – JLABS, which could enhance its development capabilities and expand its research network. Financially, OSTX has made significant strides. The conversion of outstanding preferred shares and debt into equity, alongside the successful IPO, positions OS Therapies with a solid cash runway extending into mid-2025. This financial stability is critical as they approach key clinical milestones and seek further regulatory approvals. On August 2, 2024, OS Therapies announced the formation of a Patient Advocacy Advisory Board (PAAB) dedicated to its osteosarcoma program. The PAAB, composed of key figures from the osteosarcoma community, including Miriam Cohen (Osteosarcoma Collaborative) and Mac Tichenor (Osteosarcoma Institute), will provide valuable insights and feedback as the company seeks regulatory approvals for OST-HER2. This board will meet quarterly to review clinical progress and guide discussions with the FDA regarding a potential Biologics License Authorization (BLA). Additionally, on August 6, 2024, OS Therapies introduced its Scientific and Medical Advisory Board (SMAB). This board includes leading experts in osteosarcoma from institutions such as Texas Children’s Hospital and the Cleveland Clinic. The SMAB will support the company in evaluating OST-HER2’s safety and efficacy compared to current standards of care, playing a crucial role in the company’s regulatory strategy and potential BLA submission. OS Therapies’ approach to addressing significant cancer challenges through its innovative platforms presents an intriguing opportunity for investors. With strong initial results, a promising pipeline, and a strategic partnership with JLABS, the company is well-positioned for future growth. For those looking to invest in a company at the forefront of cancer immunotherapy and antibody drug conjugates, OSTX offers a compelling proposition. Corbus Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRBP) CRBP is making notable strides in oncology with its innovative approach to addressing serious diseases. The company's diversified pipeline includes CRB-701, CRB-601, and CRB-913, each with unique mechanisms and promising potential. Corbus’ lead asset, CRB-701, is a next-generation antibody drug conjugate (ADC) targeting Nectin-4. Recently presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Conference, the Phase 1 trial results have been promising. The study, conducted with CSPC Pharmaceuticals Group, is assessing CRB-701's safety and efficacy across multiple doses. Data through April 2024 reveals a 44% overall response rate and a 78% disease control rate in metastatic urothelial cancer, and a 43% ORR and 86% DCR in cervical cancer. The drug has been well tolerated, with manageable side effects including a few cases of skin rash and peripheral neuropathy, and no dose-limiting toxicities observed up to 4.5 mg/kg.. For the quarter ending June 30, 2024, Corbus reported a net loss of approximately $10.0 million, an increase from the previous year. This rise in loss is attributed to increased clinical trial costs for CRB-701 and drug manufacturing costs for CRB-913. The company ended the quarter with $147 million in cash, which, combined with recent fundraising, is expected to sustain operations through Q3 2027. Corbus also appointed Winston Kung to its Board of Directors as of August 16, 2024. Kung’s extensive experience in both the pharmaceutical industry and investment banking is anticipated to provide valuable insights and guidance as Corbus advances its pipeline. The company also announced the resignation of Avery “Chip” Catlin from the Board, after over ten years of service. Corbus Pharmaceuticals is advancing through significant clinical and corporate milestones. The encouraging data for CRB-701 and the progress in other pipeline assets position the company for potential growth. Continued development and forthcoming data releases will be crucial in determining the long-term impact of these promising therapies. Puma Biotechnology, Inc. (NASDAQ: PBYI) Puma Biotechnology is dedicated to advancing cancer treatment, with a focus on its lead drug, NERLYNX. Approved for HER2-positive breast cancer, NERLYNX has faced fluctuating sales performance. In Q2 2024, the drug generated $44.4 million in revenue, a 14% decrease from the previous year, but still managed to beat analyst expectations despite a sequential decline of 24.2%. The product’s total prescriptions rose by 3% sequentially but fell 14% year-over-year. In addition to NERLYNX, Puma is developing alisertib, an aurora kinase A inhibitor. This drug, licensed from Takeda in 2022, is being evaluated in several trials. The Phase I/Ib study presented at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting demonstrated alisertib’s potential when combined with osimertinib for treating osimertinib-resistant EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study showed an 81% disease control rate and a median progression-free survival of 5.5 months. Notably, alisertib was more effective in patients with TP53 wild-type mutations, prompting Puma to adjust the trial focus accordingly. PBYI reported a net loss of $4.53 million for Q2 2024, a stark contrast to the profit of the same quarter last year. The drop in revenue and increased operating costs have been concerns, though the company’s revenues from NERLYNX and royalties met expectations. Looking ahead, Puma’s pipeline, particularly the alisertib studies, could be pivotal in shaping its future performance. With trials like ALISCA-Lung1 for small cell lung cancer and the upcoming ALISCA-Breast1 study, Puma aims to address significant gaps in cancer treatment. While current financials reflect challenges, the potential breakthroughs in its pipeline offer a promising outlook for long-term growth. Actinium Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NYSE-A: ATNM) ATNM focuses on targeted radiotherapies for oncology patients who have not responded to conventional treatments. Its primary products, Iomab-B and Actimab-A, are aimed at treating relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML), offering substantial growth potential if the company’s clinical trials continue to yield positive results. The company's most advanced candidate, Iomab-B, is in a Phase 3 SIERRA trial for AML patients undergoing bone marrow transplants. Despite a setback regarding its Biologics License Application (BLA), where the FDA requested an additional randomized trial, Iomab-B has shown promising results. The SIERRA trial met its primary endpoint of durable complete remission (dCR) with a p-value of less than 0.0001. This success places Actinium in a strong position, though further validation through additional trials will be key to unlocking its full market potential. Actimab-A, another late-stage candidate, is being tested as a targeted radiotherapy both as a single agent and in combination with other therapies for AML. These ongoing trials could drive stock performance, especially as the company expands its reach into various cancer therapies. Additionally, Iomab-ACT, a newer agent, shows promise in the growing gene and cell therapy space. The targeted radiotherapy conditioning approach of Iomab-ACT could revolutionize how treatments like CAR-T and gene therapies are delivered. The CAR-T market, currently valued at over $3.5 billion in annual revenue, is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 11%. If Iomab-ACT proves successful, it could capture a significant portion of this expanding market, potentially contributing blockbuster-level revenue by 2030. Actinium’s intellectual property portfolio supports this potential, with patent protection for Iomab-B and Iomab-ACT extending until 2040. The company’s ability to further develop these products, particularly in collaboration with institutions like Columbia University, presents a compelling investment case as it seeks to expand into high-demand areas like sickle cell disease and stem cell therapies.
