"The first quarter of 2026 has been a truly defining period for Alpha Tau, reflecting the convergence of two powerful dynamics that have been years in the making: the maturation of clinical data from our most advanced programs, and the global initiation of novel trials addressing some of the most pressing unmet needs in oncology," said Alpha Tau CEO Uzi Sofer. "The groundbreaking interim results from our U.S. REGAIN trial in recurrent glioblastoma, with 100% local disease control and a 67% complete response rate as of May 3, represent powerful potential clinical benefit in patients facing a devastating disease with virtually no curative options. Our pancreatic cancer program has also continued to build compelling data, first with positive new results from our Montreal study presented at the ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium, then with the oral presentation of pooled pancreatic data at Digestive Disease Week 2026, and most recently with the expansion of our IMPACT pancreatic trial to include patients receiving gemcitabine with Abraxane (nab-paclitaxel)."

"At the same time, we have continued to make significant strides toward commercialization on both sides of the Pacific, following our receipt of PMDA marketing approval in Japan for Alpha DaRT in unresectable locally advanced or locally recurrent head and neck cancer," continued Mr. Sofer. "In Japan, we are working closely with our selected leading clinical centers to advance the post-market surveillance study that supports our marketing approval. In the United States, we are advancing steadily along our path to potential FDA approval, with the recent completion of patient enrollment with 88 patients in our pivotal ReSTART trial, our very first U.S. pivotal study to reach this milestone."

"Taken together, this quarter is a true culmination of years of disciplined execution across each of our strategic priorities. With a strong balance sheet with $80.2 million of liquidity to support our continued momentum, we aim to translate this remarkable progress into meaningful impact for patients."

Recent Corporate Highlights:

In May 2026, Alpha Tau announced groundbreaking interim results as of May 3 from the U.S. REGAIN trial of Alpha DaRT in recurrent glioblastoma (GBM), conducted at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center. In the first three patients treated, 100% local disease control, a 67% complete response rate (two complete responses and one stable disease with a 30% tumor reduction), and a favorable safety profile were observed, with only one associated grade 3 serious adverse event that resolved with administration of steroids. The REGAIN study is expected to enroll up to ten U.S. patients with recurrent GBM not amenable to surgical resection. For more information, please see here: View Source
In May 2026, Alpha Tau announced the completion of patient enrollment in its U.S. multicenter pivotal ReSTART trial of Alpha DaRT for the treatment of recurrent cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), with 88 patients enrolled, making ReSTART the Company’s first U.S. pivotal study to complete enrollment – a critical milestone on the path toward potential FDA pre-market approval (PMA). Alpha DaRT has received Breakthrough Device Designation from the FDA for this indication, and the Company submitted the first module of its modular PMA application in January 2026. For more information, please see here: View Source
In May 2026, Alpha Tau presented updated pooled results from two first-in-human pancreatic cancer trials at Digestive Disease Week (DDW) 2026, with 100% local disease control observed in evaluable patients and a favorable safety profile. The oral presentation, delivered in the Pancreatic Cancer I: Diagnosis and Treatment session, marked the first time clinical results of Alpha DaRT in pancreatic cancer have been featured at a major international gastroenterology conference.
In May 2026, Alpha Tau treated the first patient in Italy with Alpha DaRT for locally advanced pancreatic cancer, in a feasibility and safety study conducted at the world-renowned Pancreas Institute of the University of Verona. The protocol is the first Alpha DaRT pancreatic cancer protocol worldwide to permit both endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided and percutaneous delivery of Alpha DaRT sources, broadening physician access across multiple interventional specialties.
In May 2026, Alpha Tau announced that an abstract entitled "Management of Locally Advanced and Metastatic Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Elderly Patients Using Diffusing Alpha-Emitter Radiation Therapy in Combination with Pembrolizumab" was accepted for podium presentation at the AHNS 12th International Conference on Head and Neck Cancer, taking place July 18-22, 2026 in Boston. The presentation reports complete top-line data from a clinical study conducted at Hadassah Medical Center, marking a key milestone in the Company’s combination therapy strategy.
In April 2026, Alpha Tau announced that an abstract entitled "Combined Safety and Efficacy Results from Three Clinical Studies Evaluating Alpha Radiotherapy for Advanced Pancreatic Cancer," presenting a pooled analysis of 58 patients across three prospective clinical studies conducted in Canada and Israel, was accepted for presentation at the 2026 ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting taking place May 29 – June 2, 2026. The abstract is expected to be published on the ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) conference website on May 21, 2026.
In April 2026, Alpha Tau announced FDA approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) supplement to expand its U.S. multicenter IMPACT pancreatic cancer pilot trial to include patients receiving gemcitabine with Abraxane (nab-paclitaxel). The supplement also adds ten newly diagnosed patients – five with unresectable locally advanced and five with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma – bringing total planned enrollment to 40 patients. Patient recruitment is now expected to complete in Q3 2026 to allow for site approvals and additional enrollment.

General and Administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $2.1 million, compared to $1.7 million for the same period in 2025, primarily due to increased employee compensation and benefits, including share-based compensation, and higher professional fees.

Financial expenses, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $9.6 million, compared to financial income, net, of $0.7 million for the same period in 2025, primarily due to the remeasurement of warrants liability.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company had a net loss of $22.9 million, or $0.26 per share, compared to a net loss of $8.7 million, or $0.12 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Balance Sheet Highlights

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits and restricted deposits of $80.2 million, compared to $76.9 million at December 31, 2025.

About Alpha DaRT

Alpha DaRT (Diffusing Alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy) is designed to enable highly potent and conformal alpha-irradiation of solid tumors by intratumoral delivery of radium-224 impregnated sources. When the radium decays, its short-lived daughters are released from the sources and disperse while emitting high-energy alpha particles with the goal of destroying the tumor. Since the alpha-emitting atoms diffuse only a short distance, Alpha DaRT aims to mainly affect the tumor, and to spare the healthy tissue around it.

Regeneron Announces Strategic Collaboration with Parabilis Medicines to Advance Novel Antibody-Helicon™ Conjugates Across Multiple Therapeutic Areas

On May 18, 2026 Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: REGN) reported a strategic research collaboration with Parabilis Medicines to discover and develop multiple therapeutic candidates based on Parabilis’ Helicon peptide platform, with a particular focus on Antibody-Helicon Conjugates (AHCs), a novel class of therapeutics designed to target challenging and historically "undruggable" targets.

Helicons are stabilized, cell-penetrant alpha-helical peptides designed to engage intracellular protein targets, including flat surfaces not well suited to traditional small molecule binding. The collaboration is designed to explore the use of Helicons both as stand-alone therapies and as part of AHCs.

"This collaboration reflects Regeneron’s approach of advancing cutting-edge and diversified science to produce a robust portfolio of innovative medicines for patients in need," said George D. Yancopoulos, M.D., Ph.D., Board co-Chair, President and Chief Scientific Officer of Regeneron. "In addition to the potential of Helicons to address previously undruggable targets, the collaboration’s intent to couple Helicons to our VelocImmune derived-antibodies so as to precisely deliver them to cells of interest represents an exciting new approach with the potential to create an entirely new therapeutic class that can span multiple therapeutic areas."

Antibody–drug conjugates traditionally use antibodies to selectively deliver drug payloads into target cells to drive cell death from within. The AHCs envisioned by this collaboration are underpinned by the same delivery principle: pairing antibody-targeted cell access with Helicon payloads designed to selectively modulate specific intracellular proteins, including some long considered undruggable.

Under the terms of the agreement, Parabilis is to receive $125 million from Regeneron in the form of a $50 million upfront payment and a commitment to invest $75 million in Parabilis’ next equity financing, subject to certain conditions. Parabilis is also eligible to receive milestone payments for development, regulatory and commercial milestones, as well as tiered royalties up to the low double-digits on future net sales of any approved medicines resulting from the collaboration. With five initial targets, the agreement provides the potential for up to approximately $2.2 billion in total milestone payments to Parabilis. Under the terms of the agreement, additional targets may be pursued upon additional option payments from Regeneron.

The agreement provides for the parties to collaborate to discover new Helicons and AHCs, which Regeneron will then be responsible for advancing through development, manufacturing and worldwide commercialization.

Recent Milestones & Business Highlights

Israeli Ministry of Health Approval to Initiate Phase 2/3 Clinical Trial of SIL204: On March 24, 2026, Silexion announced that it had received formal approval from the Israeli Ministry of Health to initiate its Phase 2/3 clinical trial evaluating the Company’s lead product candidate SIL204 for the treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer. The approval represented a defining regulatory milestone for the Company, marking the transition of SIL204 into clinical-stage development of a next-generation siRNA therapy designed to silence mutated KRAS – a driver present in approximately 90% of pancreatic cancers – and positioning Silexion as a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on KRAS-driven cancers. The approval followed strong positive anti-tumor activity demonstrated across multiple preclinical models, successful completion of two-species toxicology studies, and constructive regulatory engagement supporting the Phase 2/3 trial design.
Phase 2/3 Clinical Trial Application Submitted to Germany: On April 28, 2026, subsequent to quarter end, the Company announced the successful submission of a Clinical Trial Application (CTA) to Germany for the planned Phase 2/3 clinical trial of SIL204 in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer. The CTA was submitted through the EU Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS), with Germany serving as the Reporting Member State leading the scientific assessment of the trial across the European Union. The submission was informed by the positive written Scientific Advice received from Germany’s Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices (BfArM) in December 2025, and was supported by the Company’s comprehensive regulatory and preclinical package, including completed two-species toxicology studies.
Phase 2/3 Trial Initiation Planned for the Second Quarter of 2026: The planned Phase 2/3 clinical study is expected to begin in the second quarter of 2026 and will include an initial safety run-in cohort of approximately 18 patients, followed by expansion into a randomized cohort of approximately 166 patients. The study is designed to evaluate SIL204 in combination with standard chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer using Silexion’s dual-route administration approach – combining intratumoral delivery to target primary tumors with systemic administration to address metastatic disease. The Company plans to conduct the trial at leading oncology centers in Germany and across additional EU member states, in parallel with previously announced Israeli sites led by Sheba Medical Center.
Ilan Hadar, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Silexion, commented: "The first quarter and the period since represented a defining moment in Silexion’s evolution. With the Israeli Ministry of Health approval to initiate our Phase 2/3 clinical trial of SIL204 in locally advanced pancreatic cancer, and our subsequent submission of a Clinical Trial Application to Germany under the EU Clinical Trials Regulation, we have advanced SIL204 from a preclinical asset into clinical-stage development across two major regulatory jurisdictions. We remain on track to initiate the Phase 2/3 clinical trial in the second quarter of 2026, with the goal of bringing an RNAi-based approach to patients with KRAS-driven cancers who have limited treatment options today."

Mirit Horenshtein Hadar, Chief Financial Officer of Silexion, added: "During the first quarter and subsequent to quarter end, we executed a series of capital-raising and corporate actions designed to support our clinical development plan and our continued Nasdaq listing. These included our May 2026 warrant exercise inducement transaction, additional capital raised under our at-the-market facility, and obtaining shareholder approval for a prospective reverse share split. We continue to evaluate financing alternatives as we work to support the advancement of SIL204 into the clinic in the second quarter of 2026."

Financial Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2026

Research and development ("R&D") expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026, were approximately $1.4 million, compared to approximately $0.6 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of 133.3%. The increase was primarily driven by approximately $0.7 million in higher subcontractor and consultant expenses related to toxicology studies and product development required to support initiation of the planned human clinical trial expected in the second quarter of 2026, including GMP manufacturing of our drug product, as well as approximately $0.1 million in non-cash share-based compensation expenses related to executive officer grants awarded in February 2026.
General and administrative ("G&A") expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026, were approximately $1.4 million, compared to approximately $1.1 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of 27.3%. The increase was primarily driven by approximately $0.26 million in higher professional services costs, including legal, investor relations, director compensation, and other expenses associated with operating as a public company, as well as approximately $0.2 million in non-cash share-based compensation expenses related to executive officer and director grants awarded in February 2026.
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was approximately $2.7 million, compared to approximately $1.7 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of 58.8%. The increase was primarily attributable to higher research and development expenses, primarily related to preparations for the human clinical trial, and higher general and administrative expenses.
Balance Sheet Highlights

Cash and cash equivalents were $2.4 million as of March 31, 2026, compared to $6.0 million as of December 31, 2025. The decrease primarily reflects ongoing operating expenses supporting preclinical and clinical readiness activities for the planned initiation of the Phase 2/3 clinical trial of SIL204.
Subsequent to quarter end, the Company strengthened its balance sheet through a May 2026 warrant exercise inducement transaction generating approximately $1.0 million in gross proceeds and through utilization of its at-the-market facility. The Company has reported that the May 2026 warrant exercise transaction, together with additional equity-increasing transactions effected on or about May 15, 2026, have raised its shareholders’ equity above the $2.5 million minimum under the Nasdaq Capital Market continued listing requirements, which the Company believes constitutes restored compliance with those requirements.

"Genentech’s ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) data reflect our commitment to addressing those cancers that impose the highest burden on patients and society," said Levi Garraway, M.D., Ph.D., chief medical officer and head of Global Product Development. "In particular, our ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) data highlight significant advances in breast cancer, including the latest results for giredestrant and our evolving approach to HER2-positive metastatic disease."

Redefining the standard of care in breast cancer
Genentech’s ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) 2026 focus is on giredestrant, an investigational, oral, selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) being studied in early and advanced estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer.

This subtype accounts for approximately 70% of breast cancer cases, and the majority are diagnosed in the early stage. Data from three Phase III trials demonstrate giredestrant’s potential as a future standard of care endocrine therapy across multiple disease stages:

lidERA Breast Cancer: Building on the transformational results shared in December 2025, which demonstrated a 30% reduction in the risk of invasive disease recurrence or death, new data will indicate whether the efficacy and safety of giredestrant remain consistent across pre- and post-menopausal patients with early breast cancer. The lidERA data have been submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
persevERA Breast Cancer: Primary results investigating giredestrant in combination with palbociclib as a first-line therapy in locally advanced or metastatic cancer will be presented. These data will provide context following the announcement that while the study did not meet its primary endpoint, the giredestrant combination showed a numerical improvement in this distinct patient population, suggesting that giredestrant is active in the first-line setting.
evERA Breast Cancer: New post-progression treatment analyses will be shared exploring the sustained clinical benefit for people treated with giredestrant plus everolimus in the post-cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor setting. The U.S. FDA recently accepted the New Drug Application for giredestrant based on the positive evERA data.
Our ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) data also highlight progress in HER2-positive breast cancer, an area Genentech has led for over 30 years:

RG6596/ZN-A-1041 in HER2-positive breast cancer: Preliminary results from a Phase Ic expansion trial will provide early information on the safety and efficacy of ZN-A-1041, a highly blood-brain barrier-permeable, HER2-selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor, in combination with other HER2-targeted therapies, for patients with pre-treated HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. Designed for enhanced brain penetration, ZN-A-1041 may improve the ability to prevent and treat brain metastases, a major challenge in metastatic breast cancers.
Advancing precision medicine and novel combinations
Genentech is also presenting data from its diverse pipeline targeting specific genetic drivers and difficult-to-treat cancers, including:

Divarasib in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): Genentech will present results from the Krascendo 170 Phase Ib/II study evaluating the next-generation oral KRAS G12C inhibitor divarasib combined with pembrolizumab in treatment-naive patients with KRAS G12C+ advanced NSCLC. These data informed the Phase III Krascendo 2 study, which investigates this combination as a first-line therapy regardless of PD-L1 status. Divarasib is currently being evaluated in three pivotal Phase III studies as a monotherapy or in chemotherapy-free combinations.
Lunsumio (mosunetuzumab) plus Polivy (polatuzumab vedotin) in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL): Genentech will present updated data from the Phase III SUNMO trial to further establish the efficacy and safety of Lunsumio plus Polivy compared to chemotherapy (R-GemOx) particularly in second-line patients with relapsed/refractory DLBCL who are not eligible for transplant. This first combination of a bispecific antibody and antibody-drug conjugate could potentially provide patients who often face poor prognoses and significant treatment burdens with an effective, fixed-duration, chemotherapy-free regimen.

Provectus Biopharmaceuticals Reports Oral PV-10 Anti-Tumor Activity in Preclinical Bladder Cancer Study; Long-Term Survivors Show Absence of Gross Bladder Tumor at Study End

On May 18, 2026 Provectus Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Provectus" or the "Company") (OTCQB: PVCT) reported data from a preclinical safety and efficacy evaluation of PV-10 — a formulation of the Company’s proprietary, pharmaceutical-grade rose bengal sodium (RBS) active pharmaceutical ingredient — administered by oral and intravesical routes as a single agent and in combination with anti-human PD-1 against an orthotopic bladder carcinoma tumor xenograft model in immunologically humanized mice. Translational Drug Development, LLC (TD2 Oncology) of Scottsdale, Arizona, an oncology contract research organization, conducted the study. TD2 Oncology was created from the Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGEN) in 2003. TGEN, a precision medicine research organization, is a part of City of Hope, one of the largest cancer research and treatment organizations in the U.S.

Across the seven-arm study, oral PV-10 monotherapy was the top-ranked treatment arm under a scoring framework that assessed anti-tumor response, survival benefit, safety and tolerability, data quality, and translational potential. Notably, two animals treated with oral PV-10 — one from the monotherapy group and one from the group of PV-10 in combination with anti-PD-1 — survived to study end and showed an absence of gross bladder tumor at necropsy, a finding not observed in any untreated, vehicle-control, or anti-PD-1 monotherapy animal.

Study Design and Context

This preclinical study utilized the UMUC3-Luc luciferase-expressing bladder carcinoma cell line implanted orthotopically into the bladder of human peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC)-engrafted NOD.Cg-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Sug/JicTac (NOG) mice, an immunologically humanized model that allows evaluation of treatment effects in the presence of a functional human immune compartment. Tumor progression was monitored longitudinally by bioluminescence imaging (BLI). The study used 54 female mice across seven groups and ran for 45 days. As is inherent to human PBMC-engrafted NOG models, graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) independently contributed to morbidity across all engrafted groups; the scoring framework weighted survival accordingly and all arm-level comparisons are interpreted in this context.

The seven study arms were:

Group 1: No treatment (negative control, n=8),
Group 2: Human PBMC engraftment + vehicle instillation (active vehicle control, n=7),
Group 3: Human PBMC + PV-10 3 mg/dose intravesical (OB-IVS), once weekly ×4 weeks (n=7),
Group 4: Human PBMC + PV-10 2 mg/dose oral (PO), 5 days on/2 days off to study end (n=8),
Group 5: Human PBMC + anti-human PD-1 10 mg/kg intraperitoneal, twice weekly ×4 weeks (n=8),
Group 6: Human PBMC + PV-10 3 mg/dose OB-IVS + anti-PD-1 10 mg/kg (n=8), and
Group 7: Human PBMC + PV-10 2 mg/dose PO + anti-PD-1 10 mg/kg (n=8).

To evaluate the study’s treatment arm (Groups 3-7) results, Provectus applied a scoring framework of five weighted domains: anti-tumor response (30%), survival benefit (25%), safety and tolerability (25%), data quality and interpretability (12%), and translational and development potential (8%). Each domain was scored on a zero-to-ten scale using a pre-specified rubric grounded exclusively in observed study data, including Day 23 BLI tumor burden, time-to-morbidity, body weight trajectory, evaluable animal counts at key timepoints, and long-term survivor necropsy findings. The scoring framework was then validated through a sensitivity analysis across five weighting scenarios: base case, safety-first, efficacy-heavy, survival-dominant, and equal weight configurations. Notably, the rank order of all five active treatment arms was invariant across every scenario tested.

Key Study Findings

Oral PV-10 monotherapy (Group 4): The top-ranked arm:

Day 23 BLI tumor burden approximately 40% lower than the vehicle control on a geometric mean basis (log₁₀ mean 10.39 vs. 10.61),
Body weight nadir of −1.9% across all eight animals, the best tolerability profile among all PBMC-engrafted groups,
One long-term survivor (Day 45) whose gross necropsy did not record bladder tumor, compared to the near-universal "tumor throughout bladder" finding in untreated, vehicle-control, and anti-PD-1 monotherapy animals,
Top scores in survival, safety, and data quality domains of the scoring framework, each at 10.0 out of 10.0, and
Weighted total score of 9.24 out of 10.

Oral PV-10 + anti-PD-1 combination (Group 7): The second-ranked arm:

Highest translational potential score, reflecting the established clinical rationale for combining checkpoint blockade with novel immunomodulatory agents in bladder cancer,
Body weight nadir of −14.4%; anti-PD-1-associated GvHD burden limited safety score relative to Group 4,
One long-term survivor (Day 45) whose gross necropsy similarly did not record bladder tumor, and
Weighted score of 7.84 out of 10.
Intravesical PV-10 (Groups 3 and 6): The intravesical arms at 3 mg/dose (30–60 mg/mL concentration) were not tolerated at the instillation parameters tested:

Six of seven Group 3 mice and three of eight Group 6 mice were lost by Day 12, following the first intravesical dosing event, consistent with acute mucosal toxicity at the concentrations employed.

These findings represent a maximum tolerated concentration failure at the doses tested, not a negative efficacy signal. The intravesical route remains scientifically open at lower concentrations; clinical intravesical agents such as BCG and mitomycin-C are administered at substantially lower concentrations than those employed in this study.

Drug Development Evaluation Framework

Domain scores and sensitivity analysis results are presented in Tables 1 and 2 below.

Table 1. Domain Scores by Arm

Group Treatment Response (30%) Survival (25%) Safety (25%) Data Quality (12%) Translation (8%) Weighted Total

2 PBMC + Vehicle 6.0 10.0 9.0 9.0 5.0 8.03/10
3 PV-10 OB-IVS 0.0 0.0 5.0 1.0 1.0 1.45/10
4 PV-10 PO 8.0 10.0 10.0 10.0 8.0 9.24/10
5 anti-PD-1 5.0 10.0 6.0 10.0 7.0 7.26/10
6 PV-10 OB-IVS + anti-PD-1 5.0 0.0 1.0 3.0 2.0 2.27/10
7 PV-10 PO + anti-PD-1 7.4 8.8 6.0 10.0 9.0 7.84/10

Groups 1 and 2 are control arms of the study and are included in the above table for scoring framework calibration. They are not ranked against the treatment arms of Groups 3 to 7.

Base case (30/25/25/12/8) 1.45 (#5) 9.24 (#1) 7.26 (#3) 2.27 (#4) 7.84 (#2) +1.40
Safety-first (20/20/40/12/8) 2.20 (#4) 9.44 (#1) 7.16 (#3) 1.92 (#5) 7.56 (#2) +1.88
Efficacy-heavy (40/30/15/10/5) 0.90 (#5) 9.10 (#1) 7.25 (#3) 2.55 (#4) 7.95 (#2) +1.15
Survival-dominant (20/40/25/10/5) 1.40 (#5) 9.50 (#1) 7.85 (#3) 1.65 (#4) 7.95 (#2) +1.55
Equal weight (20/20/20/20/20) 1.40 (#5) 9.20 (#1) 7.60 (#3) 2.20 (#4) 8.24 (#2) +0.96

In Table 2, the narrowest Group 4–Group 7 margin occurs under equal weight (+0.96), driven by Group 7’s high translation domain score (9.0 vs Group 4’s 8.0). Group 4’s lead widens under safety-first weighting (+1.88), reflecting Group 4’s perfect safety score versus Group 7’s GvHD-penalized score of 6.0.

Dominic Rodrigues, Provectus’s President and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors, said "This preclinical study marks three firsts for Provectus: the first evaluation of PV-10 in bladder cancer, the first evaluation of any PV-10 route in an orthotopic tumor model, and the first evaluation of oral PV-10 against a solid tumor cancer. Historical Company and research collaborator preclinical work employed solid tumor cancer flank mouse models to evaluate PV-10 administered by intratumoral injection."

He added, "These oral PV-10 findings are encouraging. The long-term survivor necropsy findings — two animals treated with oral PV-10 that showed an absence of gross bladder tumor at Day 45 — are an important signal. PV-10’s mechanism’s capacity to perturb the tumor microenvironment and drive antitumor immune activity is not bladder cancer-specific. That is precisely what makes this result scientifically interesting and developmentally promising beyond the indication in which it was observed."

Ed Pershing, Provectus’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "The path from this preclinical signal to the clinic requires FDA acceptance of an expanded Investigational New Drug application, which we currently have for intratumoral administration of PV-10, to permit oral PV-10 human testing. That is our next goal and regulatory milestone. As we consider which indication to pursue first in a Phase 1 study, we are drawn to cancers where the gap between what standard of care offers and what patients need remains widest. Bladder cancer is one such disease. Pancreatic cancer and glioblastoma are others we are watching closely. Oral PV-10’s tolerability profile — demonstrated here in a tumor model with no dose-limiting events and a body weight nadir below two percent — is directly relevant to patients in those settings. This preclinical study tells us oral PV-10 belongs in that conversation."
