Nuvectis Pharma Rises in Pre-Market Following FDA Orphan Drug Designation for NXP800, Fueling Optimism Ahead of Key Clinical Data

Global Markets News

Nuvectis Pharma (NASDAQ: NVCT) has achieved a significant milestone with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granting Orphan Drug Designation for its lead candidate, NXP800. This designation, specifically for the treatment of ARID1a-deficient ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancers, marks a critical step forward in Nuvectis’s mission to address unmet needs in oncology. Orphan Drug Designation: A Strategic Advantage The FDA’s Orphan Drug Designation is awarded to drugs that show promise in treating rare diseases affecting fewer than 200,000 people in the U.S. For Nuvectis, this designation not only validates the potential of NXP800 but also provides several strategic benefits. These include tax credits for clinical trial costs, exemption from certain FDA fees, and potentially seven years of market exclusivity upon approval. NXP800 targets ARID1a-deficient cancers, a subset of ovarian cancers that present significant treatment challenges. The Orphan Drug Designation underscores the importance of this candidate in potentially offering a new, more effective treatment option for patients with this specific genetic mutation. Background and Market Impact This latest achievement builds on Nuvectis Pharma’s earlier successes. Earlier this year, the FDA granted Fast Track Designation to NXP800 for its development in platinum-resistant, ARID1a-mutated ovarian cancer. The Fast Track status, combined with the Orphan Drug Designation, highlights the urgent need for innovative treatments in this space and positions NXP800 as a potential game-changer in oncology. Financial analysts have taken note of Nuvectis’s progress. H.C. Wainwright recently reiterated its buy rating for Nuvectis, setting a price target of $21. This optimistic outlook reflects the market’s confidence in the company’s strategic direction, particularly as it prepares to release key clinical data later this year. Anticipation for Upcoming Results The next few months are expected to be pivotal for Nuvectis Pharma. The company is poised to share updates from its ongoing Phase 1b clinical trial of NXP800, which targets patients with platinum-resistant, ARID1a-mutated ovarian cancer. This trial is being closely watched, as positive results could significantly advance the development of NXP800, bringing it closer to pivotal trials and eventual regulatory approval. Additionally, Nuvectis is also conducting a Phase 1a dose escalation study for NXP900, its second key candidate, which targets YES1/SRC-driven tumors. Updates from this study are expected to provide further insights into the safety and potential efficacy of NXP900. ### Nuvvectis' Full announcment, titled " Nuvectis Pharma Announces Orphan Drug Designation Granted by the FDA for NXP800 for the Treatment of ARID1a-deficient Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, and Primary Peritoneal Cancers" was published on August 29th, 2024. ### This article is for informational purposes only and is not intended to serve as financial, investment or any form of professional advice, recommendation or endorsement.

CPREX Enters Orlando Market with Acquisition of Fully-Leased Industrial Property

Clarion Partners

Clarion Partners Real Estate Income Fund Inc. (“CPREX” or the “Fund”) announced today it has acquired Regional Airport Center II, an 81,762-square-foot industrial building located in Orlando, FL that is 100% leased to 11 tenants. Clarion Partners, the third largest owner of industrial real estate in the U.S., has been active in the industrial and logistics sector for more than two decades. The firm maintains strong conviction in the sector, with this purchase bringing the total amount of industrial space owned by CPREX investors to more than 33% of the Fund 1, and Clarion’s total U.S. industrial footprint to approximately 256 million square feet. “The purchase of Regional Airport Center II, well-located approximately five miles west of the Orlando International Airport in the Southeast Orange County submarket, brings Clarion’s overall industrial investment in the broader Orlando market to 29 buildings and over five million square feet,” said Managing Director Brent Jenkins. “Clarion also has nearly three million square feet of industrial projects in its development pipeline in the Orlando area.” Clarion is part of Franklin Templeton’s alternatives business, which spans a broad range of strategies, including real estate, private credit, hedge funds and secondary private equity and co-investments with approximately $255 billion in assets under management as of June 30, 2024. Clarion Partners serves as CPREX’s sub-adviser and Franklin Templeton through different entities serves as the adviser, administrator and distributor of the Fund. “CPREX’s overarching goal is to provide individual investors access to Clarion’s longstanding institutional platform through a simple, accessible, and transparent structure registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,” said Product Specialist Ali Winrow. “Positive net investor inflows over the past 18 months have enabled the fund to not only bolster its liquidity, but also leverage its flexible investment mandate through new equity and debt investments. Quarterly tender requests over the past 18 months have averaged about 1.7% of net asset value (NAV). Tender requests peaked in the second quarter of 2023 at 2.9% of NAV, remaining well below the 5% of NAV liquidity offered to investors in every quarter since the Fund’s inception.” In addition, CPREX maintains a daily value backed by one of the most robust valuation policies in the industry whereby each investment in its portfolio is valued by a third-party appraiser monthly and adjusted for income daily so that the stock price equates to the underlying value of each asset.

Liquidity Risk Considerations: The Fund should be viewed as a long-term investment, as it is inherently illiquid and suitable only for investors who can bear the risks associated with the limited liquidity of the Fund.

Risks related to investment made by the Fund: The Fund’s investments are highly concentrated in real estate investments, and therefore will be subject to the risks typically associated with real estate, including but not limited to local, state, national or international economic conditions; including market disruptions caused by regional concerns, political upheaval, sovereign debt crises and other factors. Asset-backed, mortgage-backed or mortgage-related securities are subject to prepayment and extension risks. The Fund and/or its subsidiaries employ leverage, which increases the volatility of investment returns and subjects the Fund to magnified losses if an underlying fund’s investments decline in value. The Fund may use derivatives, such as options and futures, which can be illiquid, may disproportionately increase losses, and have a potentially large impact on Fund performance. Fixed income securities involve interest rate, credit, inflation and reinvestment risks. As interest rates rise, the value of fixed income securities fall. High-yield bonds possess greater price volatility, illiquidity and possibility of default. Before investing, carefully consider a Fund's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses.

K3 Holdings

K3 Holdings, a privately held real estate investment firm with extensive holdings throughout the United States and Alpine LA Properties, a leasing company providing newly remodeled apartments at affordable rates in Los Angeles, congratulated Team USA for their outstanding performance in the Paris Olympics. Following more than two weeks of competition and lifetimes of preparation, athletes representing the United States won 126 medals (40 gold) leading all other countries at the conclusion of the games in Paris. "Congratulations to Team USA for showcasing the true spirit of excellence and determination, bringing home the most medals and making us all proud,” stated Michael Kadisha, a Principal of K3 Holdings. "Winning the most medals is a triumph of skill and perseverance, and more so, a testament to the unity and resilience that define the American spirit. Dedication, hard work, and a never-give-up attitude leads to greatness, and we are all inspired by the performance of our athletes in Paris.” "In sports, as in life, the way we handle victory says as much about us as the victory itself. Gratitude and humility elevate every achievement. Winning with grace and losing with dignity are the hallmarks of true champions,” Michael Kadisha continued. “The K3 Holdings and Alpine teams were impressed at how Team USA proved themselves to be real winners by celebrating their victories while honoring their opponents with respect and gratitude.” The Olympics serve as a unique platform where nations from every corner of the globe come together in a spirit of friendly competition. Beyond the medals and records, the Olympics foster an environment where cultural exchange and mutual understanding thrive.

Leaders in Real Estate Weigh in on National Rent Cap Proposals

K3 Holdings

K3 Holdings, a privately held real estate investment firm with extensive holdings throughout the United States issued a statement today regarding the recent proposal by the President of the United States to implement a national cap of 5% on annual rent increases. While leaders of K3 Holdings and Alpine LA Properties commend the White House's effort to address the escalating costs of housing, leaders believe that the proposed one-size-fits-all approach falls short in addressing the complexities of housing affordability across diverse regions. "Rent control policies, like the proposed national cap, are intended to stabilize housing expenses for tenants. However, the effectiveness of such policies, especially at a national level, remains a contentious issue," said Michael Kadisha, Principal of K3 Holdings. "While rent stabilization can provide much-needed stability to tenants, the recent White House proposal overlooks the crucial ties to economic metrics and the diverse circumstances of renters and property managers." Housing markets vary significantly across the United States, and what works in one region may not be suitable for another. Existing local rent control measures reflect regional nuances but would fall short if implemented on a national scale. "In addition to relieving pressure on renters, it is essential to recognize that landlords also face increasing costs in maintaining properties," added Nathan Kadisha, Principal of K3 Holdings. "While rent controls might stabilize or reduce rent increases, they do little to address the rising operational costs landlords face, such as maintenance, utilities, insurance, and other expenses." Market dynamics heavily influence rent prices, with supply and demand playing critical roles. Policies that discourage new construction or renovations due to stringent rent caps could exacerbate housing shortages, driving rents even higher in the long run. “Effective policy making demands a balanced approach —one that prioritizes stability, fairness, and inclusivity,” Nathan Kadisha continued. “By fostering collaboration between policymakers, tenants, landlords, and other stakeholders, we can work towards building stronger communities where safe, stable, and affordable housing is accessible to all.” “As property managers, K3 Holdings stands ready to engage in constructive dialogue and collaboration towards these shared goals. Together, we can envision a future where housing insecurity is a thing of the past, and every individual and family can thrive in a home they can afford,” Michael Kadisha said. “By striving for comprehensive, locally adaptable solutions, we can pave the way towards a more equitable housing landscape for all Americans.” ### For more information or to schedule an interview with a K3 spokesperson, please contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or dan@danrene.com Contact Details Dan Rene +1 202-329-8357 dan@danrene.com

Freelance jobs grow despite AI, finds new data from Freelancer.com

FREELANCER.COM

Freelancer.com (ASX: FLN), the world’s largest freelancing and crowdsourcing marketplace by number of users and jobs posted, today released its quarterly Fast 50 Index for Q2 2024 based on data from 251,000 jobs posted to the platform. Computer Security (up 27.1% from 868 to 1,103 jobs) emerges as the fastest-growing freelance skill on Freelancer.com, based on job postings across more than 2,000 skill categories from April 1 to June 30, 2024. This trend in cybersecurity skills suggests more small-to-medium businesses are turning to freelancers for cyber security support, further backed by Network Administration (up 9.9%, from 1,229 to 1,351) also placing in the top 25 fastest growing jobs on the platform. The data also shows no negative impact on generative AI tools on freelance jobs, evident in the growth of Writing, Business Service, and Legal Skills seen in this quarter’s Fast 50 report, all of which were predicted to decrease with the rise in generative AI. PDF writing (up 26.7%, from 2,533 to 3,210) was the second fastest growing job, followed by third place being Microsoft Word (up 23.9%, from 3,368 to 4,173) projects which are also associated with content writing. Writing job Copy Typing came in at the 16th place, growing 11.6% (from 4,428 to 4,941). Legal jobs, which were expected to have been ‘at threat’ to AI, have also increased (up 12.0% from 1,138 to 1,274), as well as Legal Research (up 10.8% from 917 to 1,016). In addition to the index, Freelancer.com ’s annual AI survey, which surveyed more than 4,100 workers globally, investigated AI impact on income and the initial results are shedding light on earnings. When asked how the introduction of AI tools have impacted earnings, more than half of workers (52.5%) reveal they’re earning either the same or more. One fifth (19.2%) say that they’re earning a lot more since generative AI tools were introduced, while only one sixth (17.7%) admit to earning less. “AI is creating more jobs than it takes. While many critics continue to speculate which jobs will be made redundant with AI tools, the data shows that freelance jobs which are labeled as the ‘most at risk to AI disruption’ are in fact growing. The preliminary results from our AI survey also dispel the myth that freelancer are earning less since the introduction of generative AI as more three quarters of workers we surveyed are either earning the same or earning more, with a subset taking advantage of AI and earning a lot more.” said Matt Barrie, Chief Executive at Freelancer.com. Cybersecurity threats are on the rise across all organizations, but are particularly harmful for small-to-medium sized businesses (SMBs) which have little-to-no security expertise and usually minimal protection. As a result, businesses turned to freelancers for help. In 2Q24, Computer Security jobs ranked as the fastest growing skills (up 27%), indicating there has been an uptick in cyber security threats targeting SMBs. Many of the projects posted throughout the quarter require help with network security, security assessments to identify potential vulnerabilities, and creation of cyber security response play books. General business services are also increasing on the platform as more employers are hiring freelancers to support their small businesses. A clear indication of this is the popularity of Market Research and Telemarketing jobs coming in as the fourth and fifth fastest growing skills in Q2 2024, up by 21.1% (from 1,525 to 1,859) and 19.4% (from 1,177 to 1,405), respectively. Other business related skills grew in Q2 2024, including Sales (up 15.5% from 3.467 to 4,005), Lead Generation (up 12.2% from 1,802 to 2,021) and Business Plans (up 10.9% from 1,197 to 1,328). A sudden increase in General business services means that many of the new businesses, which are usually started at the beginning of the year, now require further assistance in helping grow and scale their business. Fastest Falling Skills for Q2 2024 The main category of jobs that fell in Q2 2024 was eCommerce related jobs, which saw a significant increase in Q1 2024. Shopify Templates, ranked as the fastest falling skill and was down by 13% (from 1,476 to 1,284). CSS, which is commonly used in website development, was also down (11.8% from 9.486 to 8,368). Both WooCommerce (from 1.072 to 952) and Shopify (2,545 to 2,269) also fell in the quarter. The easing of eCommerce jobs in this quarter was mainly due to seasonality. Typically, entrepreneurs will start a business at the beginning of the year, requiring help to set up their websites or eCommerce platforms. From there, the entrepreneur either pivots to hiring freelancers for other business services, such as sales or research which we’ve seen in Q2 2024 fastest growing jobs, or are equipped with enough to run their business without any further help.
