Citius Pharmaceuticals To Receive 65 Million Shares Of TenX Keane For Merger Of Citius Oncology

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Citius Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CTXR), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company, is progressing with its focus on unlocking value for investors by announcing that shareholders of TenX Keane Acquisition (NASDAQ: TENK), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, have voted to approve the previously announced business combination between TenX Keane and Citius Pharma’s oncology subsidiary. The newly combined public company will continue to trade on the Nasdaq stock exchange and is to be renamed Citius Oncology, Inc. In October, Citius announced it was spinning out its wholly-owned oncology unit to form Citius Oncology, a standalone publicly traded entity. Under the terms of the deal, Citius Pharma is getting 65.6 million shares of common stock of Citius Oncology, which would represent approximately 90% of the newly public company. As part of the transaction, Citius Pharma will contribute $10 million in cash to Citius Oncology. An additional 12.75 million existing options will be assumed by Citius Oncology. At closing, any cash remaining in TenX’s trust account along with the cash provided by Citius Pharma will be contributed to Citius Oncology for working capital and general corporate purposes of Citius Oncology following the transaction. Unlocking Significant Value Citius previously stated that the SPAC deal is expected to unlock significant value for Citius shareholders by separating the oncology business, potentially leading to increased access to capital markets and further development of new applications and additional intellectual property. It also underscores Citius’ strategy to purchase assets, develop them and bring them to market and then unlock shareholder value. First Out Of The Gate: LYMPHIR Citius Oncology will serve as a platform to develop and commercialize novel targeted oncology therapies. The first to go to market will be LYMPHIR, a recombinant fusion protein designed to treat T-cell lymphomas. Citius said the deal is expected to provide Citius Oncology with improved access to the public equity markets and thereby facilitate the commercialization of LYMPHIR and position the company to explore additional value-creating opportunities more fully. The drug agent LYMPHIR combines the interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor binding domain with diphtheria toxin fragments. The agent specifically binds to IL-2 receptors on the cell surface, causing diphtheria toxin fragments that have entered cells to inhibit protein synthesis. In 2011 and 2013, the FDA granted orphan drug designation to LYMPHIR for the treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) and Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). In 2021, Citius acquired an exclusive license with rights to develop and commercialize LYMPHIR in all markets except for Japan and certain other parts of Asia. In March this year, the FDA accepted Citius’s Biologics License Application (BLA) for LYMPHIR with a decision expected on August 13, 2024, the FDA's assigned Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) action date. If approved, Citius is preparing for LYMPHIR commercialization later this year. “The reason we are doing this is acquire a Nasdaq listing by having the SPAC acquire the assets and at the same time it enables us to do something to prevent dilution for shareholders,” said Leonard Mazur, CEO of Citius in a recent interview with Benzinga. The CEO counts himself as one of the shareholders. He has invested $22.5 million of his own money in the business. “During the first year on the market we will be profitable. All that benefits Citius shareholders,” he said. Featured photo by National Cancer Institute on Unsplash.

Mental health issues are on the rise, affecting almost 60 million US adults and more than 970 million people worldwide. 1 Rising cases has led to an uptick in new treatments moving through the clinical stages, including Alzamend Neuro, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALZN), which is focused on developing next-generation treatments for Alzheimer’s disease, bipolar disorder (BD), major depressive disorder (MDD), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Among its promising pipeline, AL001 stands out as a potential game-changer for bipolar disorder treatment. Alzamend Neuro 's AL001, a patented ionic cocrystal technology, aims to deliver lithium in a way that reduces toxicity while maintaining therapeutic efficacy by combining lithium, salicylate, and L-proline. Alzamend Neuro is rapidly advancing treatments for mental health disorders, potentially accelerating clinical phase progress due to the successes of AL001 in a Phase I and Phase IIA clinical trials for the treatment of Alzheimer’s. In 2023, the company filed IND applications for Phase IIA Clinical Trials of AL001 for Bipolar Disorder, MDD and PTSD. By the end of 2023, the FDA granted approval for these studies via “Study may proceed” letters. Alzamend Neuro Partners with MGH for Phase II Trial of Next-Generation Lithium Therapeutic Drug Candidate for Bipolar Disorder On August 6th, Alzamend Neuro, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALZN) announced a partnership with Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) to conduct a Phase II clinical trial of AL001 for treatment of patients with bipolar disorder. MGH, the primary clinical education and research facility of Harvard Medical School, is the world's largest hospital-based research program. Dr. Ovidiu Andronesi MD, PhD, Associate Professor of Radiology at Harvard University and Director of Multinuclear Metabolic Imaging at the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, Department of Radiology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, will lead the study as the Principal Investigator. The trial will compare AL001 to a marketed lithium carbonate product, focusing on bioavailability and brain distribution of lithium, with the goal of establishing AL001's safe, effective, and tolerable dosing requirements. AL001 is designed to offer the therapeutic benefits of traditional lithium salts while minimizing their toxic side effects. This head-to-head study will measure lithium levels in the brain and structures of bipolar disorder patients, building on mouse studies that suggest AL001 can achieve therapeutic benefits at lower doses. The study will also leverage brain imaging to predict the efficacy and safety of AL001 compared to existing lithium treatments. Alzamend Neuro 's previous Phase IIA studies of AL001 in Alzheimer's patients and healthy subjects have demonstrated a benign safety profile, identifying a candidate dose unlikely to require therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). This is a significant advancement, as current lithium treatments require rigorous monitoring due to their narrow therapeutic window and potential toxicity. “We are elated to partner with Massachusetts General Hospital and Dr. Andronesi in this pivotal study for our lead therapeutic candidate AL001,” said Alzamend Neuro, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALZN) CEO Stephan Jackman, “If we can develop a next-generation lithium product (AL001) with an improved safety profile and enhanced biodistribution in the brain that would not routinely require therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), it would constitute a major improvement over current lithium-based treatments and positively impact the 7+ million Americans afflicted with bipolar disorder. We look forward to providing more details regarding study timelines and market opportunity in the near future.” This innovation has the potential to positively impact the over 7 million Americans living with bipolar disorder. Further details about the study timelines and market potential will be shared soon. Alzamend Neuro to Conduct a Phase II Clinical Trial of AL001, involving Patients with Alzheimer’s Disease Alzamend Neuro, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALZN) also just announced a collaboration with Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) to conduct A Phase II clinical trial for AL001, for the potential treatment of Alzheimer's disease. This trial will involve both Alzheimer’s patients and healthy subjects to compare the bioavailability and brain distribution of AL001 versus a marketed lithium carbonate product. The trial, which will also be led by Dr. Ovidiu Andronesi of Harvard University, aim to establish AL001's safe, effective, and tolerable dosing requirements. The potential to avoid the need for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is also significant, as it could simplify treatment regimens and improve patient compliance. By potentially offering a safer and more effective alternative to traditional lithium treatments, AL001 could revolutionize how Alzheimer's disease is managed. The ability to measure lithium levels directly in the brain and brain structures using advanced imaging techniques will provide invaluable insights into the drug’s efficacy and safety. This approach not only enhances our understanding of how AL001 works but also supports its potential approval through a Section 505(b)(2) pathway with the FDA. If successful, the trial could pave the way for a new era in Alzheimer's treatment, providing hope for millions of patients and their families. Financial Support for Clinical Trial In addition to this groundbreaking partnership, Alzamend Neuro, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALZN) recently secured the first two tranches of a $25 million Series A purchasing agreement. This investment supports the advancement of Alzamend 's clinical trial and the development of next-generation treatments for Alzheimer’s, bipolar disorder, MDD, and PTSD. CEO Stephan Jackman emphasized the company's dedication to advancing clinical milestones and revolutionizing lithium-based therapies for millions affected by these conditions.

HPS/PayMedix Acquires TempoPay to Further Expand and Simplify Healthcare Payments for All

HPS|PayMedix

HPS/PayMedix today announced the acquisition of TempoPay, an innovative payments solution created at Redesign Health that helps employees access medical, dental, pharmacy, and other expenses not paid by their insurance. Together, HPS/PayMedix and TempoPay now offer a comprehensive healthcare financing and payments solution, addressing the issues of health equity, affordability, and the need to simplify the healthcare payments experience. According to the PayMedix Healthcare Payments and Financial Disparities Study, one-third of Americans say out-of-pocket costs (33%) and deductibles (31%) are unaffordable. This figure increases to four in ten for those with a credit score of 669 or less. Further, more than half (52%) of insured Americans said that paying for medical bills has been stressful, with nearly all of them (92%) claiming the stress has affected their physical and mental health. “Healthcare costs are increasingly becoming a disproportionate share of the American household wallet, and we need better solutions to manage the stress this puts on family budgets,” said Tom Policelli, CEO of HPS/PayMedix. “The acquisition of TempoPay underscores our mission to simplify healthcare and create greater health equity by removing the financial barriers that stand in the way of employees getting access to the care they need when they need it; not just when they feel that they can afford it.” TempoPay offers all an employer’s employees’ interest-free financing for health and wellbeing care that overlays their current plans. Once activated by the employee, TempoPay VISA® cards can be used to pay for everything from medical care and prescriptions to vision and dental bills; even vet bills for their pet and other approved health and wellness-related costs not covered by their plans. The employer sets the dollar amount and charge types that will be processed, and employees can repay their bills over time interest-free via payroll or bank account. “TempoPay is the lifeline employees need today so they can access care and maintain their health without fearing high interest bills or avoiding needed care,” Erika Davison-Aviles, CEO and Co-founder of TempoPay said. “We are excited to become a part of HPS/PayMedix’s innovative healthcare payment solution and further our mission to alleviate consumers’ financial pressure. For employers we help maximize the value of their benefits plans, pre-tax accounts, and other well-being programs.” With TempoPay and PayMedix combined, all employees can access interest-free financing for all their healthcare needs. While TempoPay offers immediate financing of everyday healthcare expenses, PayMedix provides complete, uncapped financing for all in-network allowed charges that any employee may owe to providers. All employees are automatically enrolled and PayMedix then pays all participating providers in full. The employees each get a simplified consolidated statement (a SuperEOB) each month and can arrange to pay it on terms that fit their budgets. Participating providers, in turn, are simply paid the full employee balance due automatically and therefore have no bill to collect. Because PayMedix and TempoPay are ‘credit-blind’, all employees, regardless their credit histories, can make their healthcare expenses more manageable. “It’s a fact that 1 in 4 PayMedix members would be unable to get financing for their healthcare based on their credit scores. With TempoPay, we can reach even more members to help them get and stay healthy,” said Brian Marsella, President of HPS/PayMedix. “The powerful combination of PayMedix and TempoPay provides employers with a valuable solution to support their workforce. We have proven that improving access to care drives better outcomes – particularly for lower-income employees. This in turn saves employers money.” About PayMedix PayMedix, which began as the financing arm of Wisconsin-based HPS over a decade ago, is the only company solving the problem of high out-of-pocket costs for everyone -- providers, patients, employers, and TPAs. PayMedix is changing how people access, use, and pay for healthcare by guaranteeing payments to providers and financing for all patients. PayMedix has processed more than $5 billion in medical payments for hospital systems and physician practices and can be implemented in conjunction with any PPO or HMO network. About TempoPay TempoPay partners with employers to help their employees manage their medical costs with interest-free financing and flexible repayment options. With theTempoPay Visa ® card employees can take control of how they pay for healthcare without added stress, providing simple access to the financial security needed for happier, healthier lives. About HPS Health Payment Systems (HPS) is a privately held healthcare technology and services organization with solutions that reduce the cost and complexity of the healthcare payments process to benefit providers, employers, patients and TPAs. Headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, HPS has an independent network of 100+ hospital facilities and 29,200+ individual providers.

Theriva Biologics Advances Its Product Pipeline To Improve Survival Rates For Many Difficult-To-Treat Cancers

Benzinga

By Anthony Termini, Benzinga According to Cancer Research UK, "Cancer survival has doubled in the last 40 years, but progress hasn’t been equal across all types of the disease." Their research shows that survival rates of some forms of brain tumors and pancreatic cancers have barely improved in that time. One company has made it its mission to change that. Theriva TM Biologics Has A Novel Approach To Address Difficult-To-Treat Cancers Theriva Biologics (AMEX: TOVX) is headquartered in Rockville, Maryland, and its clinical research efforts span the Atlantic. Theriva is a leader in the development of oncolytic virus therapies – treating cancer with viruses that target tumors. The company recently announced positive results from one of its several ongoing clinical trials. Theriva’s oncolytic viruses are designed to address a wide range of difficult-to-treat tumor types. “Solid tumors are complex organ-like structures consisting of cancer cells, vasculature, and tumor matrix,” said Steven A. Shallcross, CEO of Theriva. He added that “this dense extracellular matrix, also known as stroma, hampers the intratumoral accessibility of chemotherapy, making them hard to treat.” And these are the challenges that Theriva seeks to address in a number of clinical trials. How Theriva Focuses Specific Oncolytic Viruses To Treat Various Cancers Theriva says its viruses have the potential to treat a broad range of difficult-to-treat tumor types. Their leading candidate, VCN-01, is a stroma-degrading oncolytic virus. It is intended to break down the tumor’s protective barrier and improve tumor access by co-administered cancer therapies and the patient’s immune system. It may be combined with other types of cancer therapies to treat a number of tumor types. Theriva has reported encouraging results from clinical trials in pancreatic cancer (PDAC), retinoblastoma and head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC). Ongoing clinical trials conducted in collaboration with the School of Medicine at the University of Leeds in England and the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine are evaluating VCN-01 in other difficult to treat cancers.. Theriva’s additional next generation oncolytic viruses such as VCN-11, which incorporates the novel Albumin Shield technology, are in preclinical development in collaboration with researchers from at the Institut d’Investigació Biomèdica de Bellvitge ( I DIBELL) and the Catalan Institute of Oncology ( ICO ). These studies are being conducted to determine safe dosage protocols and assess potential toxicity issues. The data from the tests will help inform clinical trial plans and other important aspects of product development programs. In conjunction with Washington University in St. Louis, Theriva is also investigating an approach to prevent acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), a common and serious immune complication in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). Allo-HCT, commonly known as bone marrow transplantation, is used to treat hematologic cancers, which begin in blood-forming tissue or immune system cells. Theriva’s oral β-lactamase (SYN-004), is an antibiotic-degrading enzyme being evaluated as a way to prevent aGVHD and other serious side effects caused by extensive use of antibiotics in these high-risk patients.. Addressing Difficult-To-Treat Cancers Represents Significant Commercial Opportunity The various types of solid tumors that Theriva’s oncolytic virus therapies treat represent a global commercial opportunity that could be as large as $532 billion by 2032, according to Precedence Research. Other analysts estimate the global market will be over $885 billion by 2033. Grand View Research estimates the global retinoblastoma treatment market will reach more than $3.3 billion by 2030. In its estimate of the growing market for treating the disease, Grand View attributes growing advancements in medical technology and the rising incidence of retinoblastoma. Theriva Has High Hopes For Its Therapies In a poster presented at the 2024 meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, the principal investigator and country coordinator of Theriva’s main clinical site in Spain, Dr. Rocio Garcia-Carbonero detailed the clinical trial design for the VIRAGE Phase 2b clinical trial of VCN-01 when administered to PDAC patients in combination with standard of care chemotherapy. In a recent interview, Garcia-Carbonero noted that metastatic PDAC has a high fatality rate despite recent treatment advancements. While the field has seen minimal improvement in standard care for decades, she said that she has “high hopes for VCN-01 due to its unique mechanism of action, which differs from traditional chemotherapy. VCN-01 aims to induce a robust immune response against the cancer.” More information about Theriva’s oncolytic virus therapies is available on the company’s website.
