Housing Market Softens After Two-Year Run — A Shift Worth Watching

For the first time in more than two years, U.S. home prices have dipped into negative territory, slipping 1.4% in just the last three months. High-frequency data from Parcl Labs shows a modest decline nationally, but the shift carries more weight than the numbers suggest. After a long stretch of rising prices fueled by pandemic demand, extremely low inventory, and a surge in relocation activity, the market is now feeling the effects of high mortgage rates, slower buyer activity, and a consumer who is becoming increasingly cautious. For small-cap investors, this change in the housing landscape serves as a valuable indicator of broader economic sentiment.

The housing market has been wrestling with affordability pressures since mortgage rates spiked in 2022 and 2023, with the 30-year fixed rate jumping from under 4% to more than 7%. That rapid climb priced out large segments of buyers and forced sellers to adjust their expectations. While inventory is still historically low, active listings have risen 13% year over year, and many sellers are pulling their homes off the market entirely due to low demand. That type of hesitation reflects real-time consumer behavior—people are slowing down major purchases, reevaluating budgets, and becoming more selective. Housing tends to reveal economic shifts early, and the current softness mirrors the same cautious tone we’ve been seeing in certain pockets of the small-cap market.

Regionally, the data is even more telling. Markets like Austin are down 10% year over year, with Denver, Tampa, Houston, Atlanta, and Phoenix also showing notable declines. Meanwhile, cities like Cleveland, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, and Boston are still posting price gains. This split environment is a reminder that the national average rarely tells the full story—both in real estate and in equities. Small-cap stocks behave the same way: some regions and sectors weaken sharply while others show surprising strength. Investors who learn to spot these patterns early often outperform.

Another challenge is the lack of updated government housing reports due to the recent federal shutdown. Without fresh data on housing starts, permits, or new home sales, analysts are relying heavily on private data, builder sentiment, and earnings commentary. Homebuilders themselves describe a market with weak demand and ongoing incentives, and their sentiment remains deep in negative territory. That combination—soft demand, cautious consumers, and uneven regional performance—is exactly the kind of environment where small caps tend to lag temporarily before outperforming when conditions improve.

Mortgage rates have barely moved in the last three months, even after the Fed’s recent rate cut, suggesting that home prices may hover around zero growth for some time. But for small-cap investors, this stability isn’t a bad thing. When markets pause, opportunities emerge. Historically, when housing cools without collapsing, it often sets the stage for strong small-cap recoveries once rates drift lower and consumer confidence finds its footing.

Home prices turning slightly negative isn’t a crisis—it’s a signal. It tells us the economy is recalibrating after years of aggressive tightening, and that consumers are adapting. For disciplined small-cap investors, this environment is a chance to study balance sheets, identify undervalued companies, and prepare for the next move higher. Economic resets don’t punish prepared investors—they reward them.

Federal Move on Marijuana Rescheduling Could Reshape the Sector

The U.S. cannabis sector is heading into a potentially transformative moment as reports surface that President Donald Trump is preparing to push for a reclassification of marijuana from a Schedule I drug to Schedule III. While no final decision has been made, the conversations happening between top administration officials and industry leaders signal a serious shift in federal posture—one that could reshape the economics, legal landscape, and competitive structure of the cannabis industry. For small-cap companies operating in or around this space, the impact could be particularly significant.

Cannabis has long been stuck at the federal level in a category reserved for substances with no accepted medical use, a classification that has held back the industry for decades. Reclassifying it to Schedule III would not legalize cannabis federally, but it would meaningfully reduce the restrictions companies face. The most immediate change would be relief from Section 280E of the tax code, which currently prevents cannabis operators from deducting ordinary business expenses. Larger players with substantial revenues would feel this impact first—but small-cap companies stand to benefit disproportionately because the tax burden has historically crushed their margins and limited their ability to reinvest.

A shift to Schedule III could also open the door to greater access to banking services, institutional capital, insurance products, and credit facilities. These are areas where small-cap operators—cultivators, distributors, multi-state operators, ancillary service providers, and biotech firms researching cannabinoids—have been at a disadvantage compared with more capitalized competitors. If traditional lenders and investors begin viewing cannabis as a legitimate medical or commercial sector rather than a high-risk legal minefield, the funding gap could narrow. That alone could reshape the competitive landscape, giving innovative but undercapitalized players a fighting chance to scale.

Public small-cap cannabis stocks are already reacting. Shares across the sector surged following the news, reflecting expectations that regulatory reform would unlock new revenue opportunities and ease long-standing financial pressures. But beyond the rally, the structural implications matter more. With reclassification, companies may finally be able to reduce compliance costs, expand into new states, and invest more aggressively in product development. Small-cap players focused on medical cannabis, CBD therapeutics, agricultural technology, and retail operations could all find themselves in a stronger position.

Of course, the path forward is not guaranteed. The reclassification process requires regulatory rulemaking and could face legal challenges, political resistance, and bureaucratic delays. The mixed landscape of state laws adds another layer of complexity that will not immediately disappear. And federal rescheduling alone does not address interstate commerce restrictions or full legalization—two changes that would unlock the broadest economic benefits.

Still, even a modest shift at the federal level can materially change market dynamics. The cannabis industry has operated for years under a patchwork of conflicting rules that increase costs and protect incumbents. Any move that reduces uncertainty—even if incremental—creates an environment where smaller, nimble companies can innovate, expand, and compete more effectively.

For small-cap investors, this moment is worth watching closely. Policy changes of this scale tend to create inefficiencies and valuation gaps, especially in sectors where regulation has held back growth. While volatility is likely as the political process unfolds, the prospect of lower taxes, reduced compliance friction, and increased access to capital could mark the beginning of a new cycle for cannabis-related equities.

Not Everyone Agreed: The Argument for Holding Rates Steady

The Federal Reserve’s December policy meeting delivered a third consecutive quarter-point rate cut, bringing the federal funds rate down to a 3.5%–3.75% range. But the decision was far from unanimous. In fact, the meeting produced the highest number of dissents in more than six years, with Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee, Kansas City Fed President Jeff Schmid, and Fed Governor Stephen Miran all breaking from the majority. Their reasons shed light on why the central bank remains cautious—and why some policymakers believe the Fed should have waited before easing further.

At the core of the dissent is a simple theme: uncertainty. Goolsbee and Schmid both argued that the Fed lacks enough recent data to justify another cut. With government reporting disrupted and key inflation releases delayed, the policymakers said they were uncomfortable lowering rates again without a clearer picture of how prices and demand are evolving. Goolsbee stressed that waiting until early 2026 for updated data would not have introduced meaningful economic risk, but it would have allowed the Fed to make a more informed call. In his view, patience was the more prudent option.

Both Goolsbee and Schmid pointed to inflation as the most compelling reason to pause. After moving sharply lower in 2023, progress on inflation has stalled for several months. Businesses across multiple sectors continue to cite rising input costs, and consumer surveys show persistent unease about prices. Schmid went further, warning that inflation is still “too hot” and that the economy’s ongoing momentum suggests current policy may not be restrictive enough. He raised the concern that households and firms could begin incorporating inflation into their everyday decision-making—a trend that historically makes inflation harder to bring down.

Goolsbee acknowledged that some price pressures appear tied to tariffs and may prove temporary, but he also highlighted risks that inflation in services could remain sticky. With the labor market cooling gradually rather than sharply, he argued there is no urgent economic threat that requires cutting rates before more evidence arrives. Hiring and firing activity has slowed into what he described as a “low hiring/low firing” environment—typical of businesses navigating uncertainty rather than signaling any dramatic downturn.

Fed Governor Stephen Miran dissented for a different reason, preferring a larger 0.50% cut. His stance reflects the broader tension within the central bank: some officials fear easing too slowly risks stalling momentum, while others worry easing too quickly risks reigniting inflation. The result is a policy landscape where the Fed is attempting to balance growth risks against inflation risks in real time, with incomplete information.

Still, the majority of the committee moved forward with the cut, signaling confidence that inflation will eventually resume its downward trend. But the dissents highlight that key voices inside the central bank are urging caution. For investors, the takeaway is straightforward: the Fed is not unanimously convinced that the inflation battle is over, and future rate moves may be more contested than markets expect.

Release – MAIA’s Ateganosine Surges Ahead with Breakthrough Momentum as Pivotal Phase 3 Trial Initiates

Research News and Market Data on MAIA

December 11, 2025 1:00pm EST Download as PDF

CHICAGO, Dec. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ateganosine (THIO, 6-thio-2′-deoxyguanosine), a first-in-class telomere-targeting therapy under development by MAIA Biotechnology (NYSE American: MAIA), appears to be gaining increasing attention in the oncology community as emerging clinical results continue to surpass expectations in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). With the therapy’s Phase 2 trial ongoing and a pivotal Phase 3 program initiated this week, ateganosine is being closely watched as one of the most distinctive investigational approaches in solid-tumor treatment today.

We believe that MAIA has positioned itself at the forefront of a new scientific category in oncology. To our knowledge, Ateganosine remains the only direct telomere-targeting anticancer agent currently in clinical development anywhere—a key distinction in a treatment landscape where most therapeutic advances build upon established mechanisms rather than introduce entirely new ones.

According to management, statistical assessments of the Phase 3 trial points to a very high probability of technical success for regulatory approval of ateganosine.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Fast Track designation for ateganosine for the treatment of NSCLC.

A Dual Mechanism Unlike Existing Therapies

Ateganosine works through a dual mechanism of action that we believe differentiates it from existing chemotherapies, targeted agents, and immunotherapies.

First, the molecule is selectively incorporated into cancer-cell telomeres by telomerase, an enzyme active in more than 80% of human cancers. This incorporation disrupts telomeric structure and function, driving selective cancer-cell death.

Simultaneously, this disruption generates micronuclei carrying ateganosine-modified telomeric DNA fragments. These fragments interact with immune cells and trigger a potent immunogenic response involving both the cGAS/STING innate pathway and adaptive T-cell activation, further promoting tumor regression.

This integrated telomere-targeting–plus–immune-activation model represents a mechanism that to our knowledge is not seen in current NSCLC treatments and may hold implications for broader solid-tumor indications.

Phase 3 Outcomes are the Next Step

The launch of a Phase 3 trial reflects growing confidence in the maturing clinical profile. With NSCLC remaining one of the largest and most challenging oncology markets globally, in our opinion, the commercial opportunity for a first-in-class therapy with this level of early performance is substantial.

As the only telomere-targeting agent in clinical development that we are aware of, ateganosine could mark the start of a new therapeutic category. Should its results to date translate into later-stage confirmation, we believe the therapy could emerge as a major entrant in next-generation cancer treatment.

About MAIA Biotechnology, Inc.

MAIA is a targeted therapy, immuno-oncology company focused on the development and commercialization of potential first-in-class drugs with novel mechanisms of action that are intended to meaningfully improve and extend the lives of people with cancer. Our lead program is ateganosine (THIO), a potential first-in-class cancer telomere targeting agent in clinical development for the treatment of NSCLC patients with telomerase-positive cancer cells.

Release – GeoVax Addresses Identification of New Mpox Variant

Research News and Market Data on GOVX

Continued Mpox Evolution Underscores Dependence on a Single Global Supplier, Reinforcing the Critical Importance of GeoVax’s Accelerated GEO-MVA Program

Atlanta, GA – December 11, 2025 – GeoVax Labs, Inc. (Nasdaq: GOVX), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing multi-antigen vaccines and immunotherapies for infectious diseases and cancer, today addressed reports from UK health authorities confirming the emergence of a newly evolved “recombinant” Mpox strain. Early analysis indicates the variant contains genetic elements from both Clade I and Clade II Mpox viruses, highlighting the ongoing evolution of the pathogen and the potential implications for disease severity, transmissibility, and vaccine readiness.

The discovery of this recombinant strain comes at a time when global Mpox vaccine supply remains concentrated in a single manufacturer – creating risks around preparedness, surge capacity, and geopolitical access. GEO-MVA is uniquely positioned in developing an expanded supply of MVA vaccine, bolstering domestic and global resilience.

GeoVax Highlights Strategic and Public Health Implications

  • The virus continues to evolve. Simultaneous circulation of multiple Mpox clades creates ongoing risk for recombination and changing outbreak behavior.
  • Global supply remains dangerously concentrated. A single-vendor global supply model heightens vulnerability for stockpile readiness and equitable vaccine distribution.
  • GEO-MVA is progressing as the first U.S.-based Mpox/smallpox vaccine. GeoVax aims to deliver a scalable, domestically manufactured solution that supports national biodefense and global supply diversification.
  • Clinical and manufacturing progress advancing: Final fill-finish activities of GEO-MVA are scheduled to be completed by year-end, with first-in-human studies planned upon regulatory clearance.

“The emergence of a recombinant Mpox strain is a timely reminder that viral evolution does not pause,” said David Dodd, Chairman & CEO of GeoVax. “With global vaccine supply dependent on a single provider, the risks to preparedness, national security, and market stability are clear. We are developing GEO-MVA to meet this strategic need – a U.S.-manufactured Mpox vaccine capable of supporting both domestic requirements and global demand.”

Favorable EMA Development Pathway Accelerates GEO-MVA

GeoVax recently received positive Scientific Advice from the European Medicines Agency (EMA) confirming that the Company may proceed directly to a single Phase 3 immuno-bridging trial with no Phase 1 or Phase 2 trials required to support a Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) for GEO-MVA. The EMA’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) also affirmed the adequacy of GeoVax’s proposed nonclinical package and agreed with the Company’s immunogenicity endpoints for demonstrating non-inferiority to the licensed comparator vaccine.

This guidance provides a significant acceleration of the regulatory timeline, a de-risked development path, and a potentially earlier commercialization opportunity across all 27 EU member states. As reinforced in a subsequent regulatory communication, the EMA’s pathway positions GeoVax for expedited approval, reduced development cost, and earlier revenue generation as the Company advances GEO-MVA toward Phase 3.

About GEO-MVA

GEO-MVA is GeoVax’s next-generation Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA)-based Mpox/smallpox vaccine, engineered to provide a durable, broad immune response with both civilian and biodefense (“dual-use”) applicability. Key attributes include:

  • U.S.-Based Manufacturing Pathway: GEO-MVA is being developed as the first U.S.-manufactured Mpox/Smallpox vaccine, reducing reliance on foreign suppliers and supporting national security priorities.
  • Dual-Use Capability: Designed to meet both public health needs and Strategic National Stockpile requirements.
  • Robust Multi-Antigen Immunity: MVA enables broad antigen presentation to support strong humoral and T-cell responses.
  • Scalable Modern Production: GeoVax’s planned transition to AGE1 continuous cell-line manufacturing is expected to expand output, reduce cost, and support global self-sufficiency.
  • Regulatory Momentum: EMA’s streamlined approach provides a clear, accelerated pathway for clinical advancement and commercialization.

About GeoVax

GeoVax Labs, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel vaccines against infectious diseases and therapies for solid tumor cancers. The Company’s lead clinical program is GEO-CM04S1, a next-generation COVID-19 vaccine currently in three Phase 2 clinical trials, being evaluated as (1) a primary vaccine for immunocompromised patients such as those suffering from hematologic cancers and other patient populations for whom the current authorized COVID-19 vaccines are insufficient, (2) a booster vaccine in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and (3) a more robust, durable COVID-19 booster among healthy patients who previously received the mRNA vaccines. In oncology the lead clinical program is evaluating a novel oncolytic solid tumor gene-directed therapy, Gedeptin®, having recently completed a multicenter Phase 1/2 clinical trial for advanced head and neck cancers. GeoVax is also developing a vaccine targeting Mpox and smallpox and, based on recent EMA regulatory guidance, anticipates progressing directly to a Phase 3 clinical evaluation, omitting Phase 1 and Phase 2 trials. GeoVax has a strong IP portfolio in support of its technologies and product candidates, holding worldwide rights for its technologies and products.

Key milestone achieved as Company advances clinical program to full approval trial of ateganosine sequenced with a checkpoint inhibitor in comparison to chemotherapy

CHICAGO, Dec. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MAIA Biotechnology, Inc. (NYSE American: MAIA) (“MAIA”, the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing targeted immunotherapies for cancer, today announced that the first patient has been dosed in the Company’s THIO-104 Phase 3 pivotal trial evaluating the efficacy of ateganosine administered in sequence with a checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) as a third-line treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

The multicenter, open-label trial of patients who are resistant to CPI and chemotherapy treatments, is designed to assess overall survival for ateganosine sequenced with a CPI compared to investigator’s choice of chemotherapy in a 1:1 randomization of up to 300 patients. MAIA has received regulatory approval to screen patients in Taiwan, Turkey, select European Medicines Agency (EMA) countries, and Georgia. Screening and enrollment are now underway.

“Our strategy to bring our telomere-targeting treatment to market is proceeding according to plan as we advance our ateganosine program to a Phase 3 trial. This larger trial will provide us a robust dataset to support our case for commercial approval by the U.S. FDA,” said Vlad Vitoc, M.D., CEO of MAIA. “We have many sites in several countries already screening patients, and with our first patient dosed, we have achieved a key milestone along our path to potential FDA commercial approval. We expect to see Phase 3 results consistent with Phase 2 trial data showing median survival of 17.8 months compared to approximately six months of survival from chemotherapy. We are confident that ateganosine could become the new treatment standard for patients suffering from this devastating disease.”

Ateganosine sequenced with a CPI has shown exceptional efficacy in third-line NSCLC patients. As of September 17, 2025, the observed progression free survival (PFS) in THIO-101 was 5.6 months, more than double the standard of care PFS of 2.5 months. One patient that began therapy in March 2023 has shown survival of 30 months, or 912 days. 

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Fast Track designation for ateganosine for the treatment of NSCLC.

About Ateganosine

Ateganosine (THIO, 6-thio-dG or 6-thio-2’-deoxyguanosine) is a first-in-class investigational telomere-targeting agent currently in clinical development to evaluate its activity in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Telomeres, along with the enzyme telomerase, play a fundamental role in the survival of cancer cells and their resistance to current therapies. The modified nucleotide 6-thio-2’-deoxyguanosine induces telomerase-dependent telomeric DNA modification, DNA damage responses, and selective cancer cell death. Ateganosine-damaged telomeric fragments accumulate in cytosolic micronuclei and activates both innate (cGAS/STING) and adaptive (T-cell) immune responses. The sequential treatment of ateganosine followed by PD-(L)1 inhibitors resulted in profound and persistent tumor regression in advanced, in vivo cancer models by induction of cancer type–specific immune memory. Ateganosine is presently developed as a second or later line of treatment for NSCLC for patients that have progressed beyond the standard-of-care regimen of existing checkpoint inhibitors.

About THIO-104 Phase 3 Clinical Trial

THIO-104 is a multicenter, open-label, randomized Phase 3 clinical trial, designed to evaluate ateganosine’s telomere-targeting anti-tumor activity when followed by PD-(L)1 inhibition in patients with advanced third-line NSCLC who previously did not respond or developed resistance to treatment regimens containing checkpoint inhibitor and/or chemotherapy and have progressed. The trial has two primary objectives: (1) to assess the clinical efficacy of ateganosine compared to investigator’s choice of chemotherapy, using median Overall Survival (OS) as the primary clinical endpoint (2) to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ateganosine in sequential combination with a checkpoint inhibitor. For more information on this Phase 3 trial, please visit ClinicalTrials.gov using the identifier NCT06908304.

Release – Century Lithium Achieves High Recovery of Rare Earth and Critical Elements From Primary Leach Solutions

Research News and Market Data on CYDVF

December 2, 2025 – Vancouver, Canada – Century Lithium Corp. (TSXV: LCE) (OTCQX: CYDVF) (Frankfurt: C1Z) (“Century Lithium” or “the Company”) is pleased to report positive results from its ongoing test work  on the recovery of rare earth elements (“REEs”) from primary lithium leach solutions generated from its 100%-owned Angel Island lithium project in Nevada, USA. The initial testing indicates that high REE recoveries can be achieved without impacting lithium recovery in Century Lithium’s extraction process.

“The REE recovery results validate our belief that Century Lithium’s leach solutions offer meaningful secondary-value opportunities,” said Todd Fayram, Century Lithium’s Senior Vice President, Metallurgy. “Producing a secondary REE-rich product has the potential to strengthen Angel Island’s economics and align the Company with broader government and industry initiatives supporting secure North American critical-minerals supply chains.”

Century Lithium previously confirmed that the leach solutions produced from Angel Island claystone contain notable concentrations of REEs, including dysprosium, gadolinium, neodymium, and praseodymium, as well as higher concentrations of the critical metals scandium, lanthanum, and cerium. Cesium is also present.

Ion-exchange test work achieved greater than 97% recovery of the identified REEs and critical metals, excluding cesium, while maintaining complete selectivity against lithium. This selectivity is essential for downstream lithium recovery through the Company’s process flowsheet, which includes ultrafiltration, direct lithium extraction (“DLE”) and subsequent steps to produce high-purity lithium carbonate.

The Company’s metallurgical program at Angel Island continues to focus on the following:

  • Optimizing ion-exchange performance and selectivity
  • Advancing downstream processing flowsheets for REE concentration and refinement
  • Evaluating market pathways for a commercial REE by-product
  • Assessing the economic contribution of REEs to primary lithium production

These results represent a significant technical milestone, demonstrating that REE extraction and recovery can be implemented without affecting the Company’s core lithium recovery process.   Century Lithium believes these advancements position the Company to potentially supply both lithium and REEs to North American critical minerals markets, supporting supply-chain resilience and enhancing long-term project value for Angel Island.

Release – Cadrenal Therapeutics Acquires VLX-1005, a First-in-Class Phase 2 12-LOX Inhibitor for Patients with Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia (HIT)

Research News and Market Data on CVKD

  • Novel first-in-class therapeutic targeting a key immune signaling pathway and the underlying cause of HIT
  • It is the first and only potent, highly selective inhibitor of human 12-LOX in clinical testing, distinguishing it from related compounds.
  • Orphan Drug and Fast Track designations from the FDA

PONTE VEDRA, Fla., Dec. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cadrenal Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CVKD), a biopharmaceutical company developing transformative therapeutics to overcome the limitations of current anticoagulation therapy, today announced the acquisition of VLX-1005 and related 12-lipoxygenase (12-LOX) assets from Veralox Therapeutics (“Veralox”). The acquisition immediately strengthens Cadrenal’s pipeline with a late-stage, first-in-class drug candidate targeting a critical immune signaling pathway. This acquisition addresses yet another underserved therapeutic opportunity in the $40 billion global anticoagulation market.

VLX-1005 is a novel, potent, selective small-molecule inhibitor of 12-LOX, a key pathway driving immune platelet-mediated inflammation and a contributor to the pathogenesis of HIT. This potentially life-threatening complication can occur in up to 5% of patients exposed to heparin – the most commonly used parenteral anticoagulant – regardless of dose, schedule, or route of administration. HIT antibodies can cause catastrophic and life-threatening arterial and venous thrombosis. Approximately 300,000 patients in the United States are evaluated each year for suspected HIT, and an estimated 56,000 confirmed diagnoses occur each year. Mortality and thromboembolic event (TE) rates remain high despite currently available therapies.

Two Phase 1 studies of VLX-1005 in healthy participants have demonstrated that VLX-1005 was well tolerated, with no deaths, no serious adverse events, and no trend in adverse event reporting with increasing doses. A recent Phase 2 study (VLX-1005-003) evaluated VLX-1005 in individuals with suspected HIT, and interim results demonstrated encouraging reductions in thromboembolic events. These events have become a preferred, clinically meaningful endpoint for regulators, clinicians, and payers, given the rising rates observed in current HIT populations.

VLX-1005 has received Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) and Fast Track designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, as well as orphan drug status from the European Medicines Agency. Second-generation therapeutics targeting 12-LOX are also under development for type 1 diabetes and other immune-mediated and inflammatory diseases.

“We are pleased the advancement of VLX-1005 for the treatment of HIT will continue under the leadership of Cadrenal,” said Matthew Boxer, Co-Founder of Veralox Therapeutics. “The program has found a home in Cadrenal, where it aligns with a shared vision and excitement regarding the promise 12-LOX technology may offer patients.”

“With the acquisition of VLX-1005, Cadrenal continues to advance novel therapeutics to treat or prevent thrombosis in high-risk patients,” said Quang X. Pham, Chairman and CEO of Cadrenal Therapeutics. “HIT remains a dangerous condition without a therapy that addresses its immune-driven biology. The emerging data from VLX-1005 suggest meaningful potential to improve patient outcomes while maintaining favorable tolerability. We believe this is a compelling strategic addition to our pipeline, with the market size for HIT reaching $1 billion in the US and EU.”

Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, Veralox is eligible to receive upfront and milestone payments contingent on the achievement of specified future clinical and regulatory milestones. Additionally, Veralox will be entitled to royalties on global sales of the acquired assets upon future commercialization. The structure and terms of the agreement enable Cadrenal to allocate capital to advancing the clinical development of VLX-1005.

About Cadrenal Therapeutics, Inc.
Cadrenal Therapeutics, Inc. is developing differentiated products that bridge critical gaps in current acute and chronic anticoagulation management for rare and high-risk patient populations. It currently has three clinical-stage assets: VLX-1005, a first-in-class Phase 2 12-LOX Inhibitor for patients with HIT, tecarfarin, an oral vitamin K antagonist (VKA) for chronic use in patients with kidney dysfunction or left ventricular assist devices (LVADs), and frunexian, a parenteral small-molecule Factor XIa antagonist for use in acute hospital settings.
