Release – Aurania Appoints Corporate Secretary and Provides Highlights from Year End Financial Statements

Research News and Market Data on AUIAF

April 25, 2025 7:51 AM EDT

Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – April 25, 2025) – Aurania Resources Ltd. (TSXV: ARU) (OTCQB: AUIAF) (FSE: 20Q) (“Aurania” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the appointment of Ms. Carolyn Muir as Corporate Secretary of the Company, in addition to her role as Vice President, Corporate Development & Investor Relations. The Company also reports that its Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the year ended December 31, 2024, are available under Aurania’s public filings on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com and on the Company’s website. Highlights are described below.

Highlights from Management’s Discussion and Analysis

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company advanced drill target definition at its Kuri-Yawi gold target through detailed geophysical surveys and geological mapping. Preliminary results show a large vertical conductive corridor aligned with thallium-rich chalcedony veins, sinters and hydrothermal alterations, key indicators of epithermal systems. Two main chargeability structures were identified, interpreted as potential mineralized zones. Ongoing data integration will guide preparations for a future drill campaign.

The Anaconda mapping program at the Awacha porphyry copper target area was completed during 2024. Initial geological reconnaissance has confirmed an area of interest through the observation of porphyric intrusive showing potassic and sericite alteration with the presence of quartz veins with chalcopyrite traces. Next steps will consist of an interpretation of all the data collected with the realization of thematic maps to define the most prospective area of interest.

During 2024, Aurania’s CSR activities supported clean water access, education, and women’s entrepreneurship across the communities in its areas of influence in Ecuador, including the launch of a micro-business program, school and library construction, and community-based training initiatives.

The Swiss challenge and public consultation phases associated with the application for a 51 km² exploration permit-located immediately adjacent to the South Armorican Shear (cisaillement sud-armoricain) in the Brittany Peninsula of northwestern France-have now been completed, and the Company continues to advance through the progress of the application.

The Company signed non-binding memoranda of understanding with the Communes of Ogliastro and Nonza in Cap Corse, Northern Corsica, France, for the exploitation of heavy mineral beach placers that are highly enriched in nickel (Ni) and other metals. The nickel-bearing mineral in the black magnetic sand is awaruite, a naturally occurring nickel-iron alloy, which is both of high specific gravity (dense) and of high magnetic susceptibility (magnetic).

AuroVallis, the wholly owned Swiss subsidiary of Aurania, completed the liquidation process initiated several years on June 30, 2024, with no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial figures.

On September 23, 2024, Palamina Corp. (“Palamina”), completed the acquisition of 100% of the shares of Aurania’s Peruvian subsidiary in exchange of 350,000 common shares of Palamina Corp. (TSXV: PA) (OTCQB: PLMNF) and a 1% Net Smelter Return (“NSR”) royalty over certain mining claims located in Peru and held by the Company’s subsidiary. Palamina has the option to buy back half of the NSR for $1,000,000 at any time.

During 2024, the Company completed two non-brokered private placements totaling $5,429,481 in gross proceeds, with units priced at $0.20 and $0.45, each including one common share and one warrant. Proceeds were used to advance exploration activities and working capital. To preserve cash and improve the balance sheet, the Company settled $3,812,781 in debt owed to Dr. Keith Barron through the issuance of common shares. Additionally, the Company received a $1,000,000 unsecured loan from Dr. Barron to support ongoing operations.

The Company reached an agreement with the corresponding Ecuadorian authorities for the payment of the annual concession fees of its 42 mineral exploration concessions in Ecuador for the year 2024. Subsequent to year end, the Company filed all the appropriate documentation for the renewal of its 42 mineral exploration concessions in Ecuador for the year 2025 and filed a request to enter into a new agreement for payment of the associated annual concession fees. Its property in Ecuador remains in good standing while an agreement is being finalized.

Subsequent to year end, on April 3, 2025, the Company announced its intention to complete a non-brokered private placement financing of up to 5,000,000 units of the Company at a price of $0.30 per unit for total gross proceeds of up to $1,500,000. On April 17, 2025, the Company announced the closure of the first tranche. An aggregate of 3,182,899 units were sold under the first tranche for total gross proceeds of $954,870. Each unit consisting of one common share of the Company and one common share purchase warrant, the warrant having and exercise price of $0.55 per common share and an expiry date of two years after closing of the first tranche. Dr. Keith Barron subscribed for 1,000,000 Units of this offering.

Option Grant

On April 24, 2025, Ms. Carolyn Muir was granted 130,000 stock options exercisable at C$0.27 each in connection with her appointment as Corporate Secretary and her existing roles as VP Corporate Development and Investor Relations of the Corporation.

Release – GeoVax Highlights Strong Clinical Results Following Presentation of Multi-Antigen COVID-19 Vaccine at the 25th Annual World Vaccine Congress

Research News and Market Data on GOVX

GEO-CM04S1 Demonstrates Durable T Cell and Antibody Responses in Healthy and Immunocompromised Populations

ATLANTA, GA, April 24, 2025 – GeoVax Labs, Inc. (Nasdaq: GOVX), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing vaccines and immunotherapies for infectious diseases and cancer, today recapped the successful presentation of new clinical data on its multi-antigen SARS-CoV-2 vaccine candidate, GEO-CM04S1, delivered at the 25th Annual World Vaccine Congress in Washington, D.C.

The presentation, titled “Phase 2b Study Results That Evaluated and Compared GeoVax’s Multi-Antigen Vaccine Candidate (GEO-CM04S1) to an Approved Vaccine Against COVID-19,” was given by Don J. Diamond, Ph.D. on April 24, 2025. It highlighted results across several Phase 1 and 2 clinical trials, including studies involving healthy volunteers as well as immunocompromised patients such as stem cell transplant recipients and those with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

GEO-CM04S1, based on the synthetic Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA) vector platform, uniquely expresses both the Spike (S) and Nucleocapsid (N) antigens of SARS-CoV-2—resulting in broad and durable immune responses even in populations that have historically responded poorly to mRNA vaccines.

Key Highlights from the Clinical Data Presented

Robust Immune Response in Healthy Adults

  • In a Phase 1 trial, 100% of participants (34/34) seroconverted (i.e., produced antibodies) for Spike IgG, and 94% (32/34) for Nucleocapsid IgG.
  • 98% (48/49) demonstrated a T cell response to either antigen following vaccination.
  • No serious safety concerns were reported across varying dose levels.

Comparable Immunogenicity at Lower Doses (Phase 2 Booster Trial)

  • Healthy volunteers who had previously received mRNA or protein-based COVID-19 vaccines were boosted with GEO-CM04S1 at two dose levels (10⁷ vs 10⁸ pfu).
  • Spike, RBD, and Nucleocapsid IgG antibody responses, as well as neutralization titers against multiple COVID-19 variants (including XBB.1.5), increased significantly at both dose levels with no meaningful differences between them.
  • T cell responses increased significantly post-vaccination, regardless of baseline immunity.

Superior Performance in Immunocompromised Populations

  • In stem cell transplant recipients, GEO-CM04S1 induced ELISA antibody titers and T cell responses that exceeded those observed in healthy volunteers.
  • In a randomized Phase 2 trial comparing GEO-CM04S1 to the Pfizer-BioNTech (Comirnaty®) vaccine in patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, GEO-CM04S1 demonstrated a significantly higher T cell response rate.
    • At Day 56 of the study: 6 of 15 patients in the GEO-CM04S1 arm achieved ≥3-fold increases in Spike or Nucleocapsid-specific T cells versus 2 of 14 in the Comirnaty arm.
    • The Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) recommended halting enrollment in the Pfizer arm due to underperformance, while continuing enrollment of the GEO-CM04S1 arm.

“We were pleased to share these promising results with global leaders in vaccinology,” said Don J. Diamond, Ph.D. “The data underscore the value of our dual-antigen approach, particularly for patients underserved by existing single-antigen vaccines. GEO-CM04S1 not only drives strong antibody and T cell immunity in healthy adults, but also in the immunocompromised—a population historically underserved by single-antigen mRNA vaccines.”

David A. Dodd, Chairman, President, and CEO of GeoVax, added: “The clinical performance of GEO-CM04S1 across diverse and high-risk populations supports our mission to deliver broad and lasting protection through next-generation vaccines. Our data continues to demonstrate strong, durable immune responses in both healthy and immunocompromised populations—a critical feature of our vaccine for public health preparedness. As we continue to advance this program, these results reinforce our confidence in the MVA platform as a foundation for addressing future public health threats.”

About GEO-CM04S1

GEO-CM04S1 is a next-generation COVID-19 vaccine based on the Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA) vector originally developed at City of Hope. Its multi-antigen design expresses both Spike and Nucleocapsid proteins of SARS-CoV-2, promoting broad, cross-reactive immunity. The vaccine is being evaluated in three ongoing Phase 2 clinical trials.

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. The Company is also developing GEO-MVA, a vaccine targeting Mpox and smallpox. GeoVax has a strong IP portfolio in support of its technologies and product candidates, holding worldwide rights for its technologies and products.

Release – Cocrystal Pharma’s Norovirus Oral Antiviral Candidate Demonstrates Potent Activity Against the Emerging GII.17 Variants

Research News and Market Data on COCP

April 24, 2025

 Download as PDF

  • Norovirus GII.17 variants have overtaken GII.4 as the most prevalent strain and significantly increased norovirus outbreaks in the U.S. and European countries in 2024-2025
  • Cocrystal Pharma’s pan-viral protease inhibitor CDI-988 shows superior broad-spectrum antiviral activity against major norovirus variants including GII.4 and GII.17 strains
  • Company reported favorable safety and tolerability of CDI-988 in Phase 1 and plans to initiate a human challenge study in 2025 for the treatment and prevention of norovirus infection

BOTHELL, Wash., April 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cocrystal Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: COCP) (“Cocrystal” or the “Company”) announces that its investigative drug candidate CDI-988 was shown to bind to the highly conserved region of the GII.17 protease with excellent potency, similar to that shown across a range of GII.4 norovirus variants that had been the dominant worldwide strains until this year. The high resolution GII.17 protease crystal structures used in determining CDI-988’s activity were obtained using the Company’s proprietary structure-based platform technology. Cocrystal plans to initiate a human norovirus challenge study in 2025 in the U.S. to evaluate CDI-988 as a potential prevention and treatment of norovirus infection.

“Norovirus is the most common cause of acute gastroenteritis worldwide, yet there are no approved antiviral treatments or vaccines available to combat it,” said Sam Lee, Ph.D., Cocrystal’s President and co-CEO. “Norovirus antiviral and vaccine development has been extremely challenging due to high diversity among variants that include 10 genogroups and 49 genotypes. We are gratified to have determined the first crystal structure of GII.17 protease and demonstrated broad-spectrum antiviral activity of CDI-988 against newly circulating major norovirus GII.17 variants. Based on a novel mechanism of action and superior broad-spectrum antiviral activity, CDI-988 is a compelling candidate for advancement as a first-in-class oral antiviral to be used for both prevention and treatment of norovirus infection.”

“Norovirus is a noteworthy research target considering that each year an estimated 685 million cases and approximately 50,000 child deaths are attributed to this virus worldwide, leading to a societal cost estimated at $60 billion,” said James Martin, Cocrystal’s CFO and co-CEO. “We are addressing the urgent need for norovirus and other emerging viral outbreaks through our platform technology that facilitates the rapid, efficient development of potentially highly effective and safe direct-acting antivirals.”

Release – Tonix Pharmaceuticals Presented Data on Potential Mpox Vaccine TNX-801 at World Vaccine Congress Washington 2025

Research News and Market Data on TNXP

April 24, 2025 7:55am EDT Download as PDF

TNX-801 is a single-dose, live virus vaccine in development to protect against mpox and smallpox

TNX-801 protects immunocompromised animals from a lethal challenge with clade IIa monkeypox virus

Durability of TNX-801 vaccination shown by six-month protection of animals from a lethal challenge with rabbitpox

Tolerability of TNX-801 demonstrated in immunocompromised animals by no spreading to blood or tissues, even at high doses

CHATHAM, N.J., April 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP) (Tonix or the Company), a fully-integrated biopharmaceutical company with marketed products and a pipeline of development candidates, presented data in an oral presentation at the World Vaccine Congress Washington 2025, held April 21-24, 2025, in Washington, D.C.   The presentation titled, “A Novel Single-Dose, Attenuated Live, Minimally Replicative Mpox Vaccine”, highlighted positive preclinical efficacy data, demonstrating that TNX-801 protected animals from mpox and rabbitpox and was well tolerated, even in immunocompromised animals. A copy of the Company’s presentation is available under the Scientific Presentations tab of the Tonix website at www.tonixpharma.com.

“TNX-801 shows promise as a potential mpox and smallpox vaccine by providing protective immunity to animals with a single-dose,” said Seth Lederman, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals. “TNX-801 was generally well tolerated, even in immunocompromised animals. The new data show durable six-month protection against a lethal challenge with rabbitpox virus and protection of immunocompromised animals against a lethal challenge with monkeypox clade IIa virus. These new data build upon prior studies showing protection of animals against a lethal challenge with intratracheal clade Ia mpox virus. In all of these studies, after a single dose vaccination, TNX-801 prevented both clinical disease and formation of lesions.”

Dr. Lederman continued, “The ongoing clade IIb mpox epidemic that started in 2022, and the more recent and ongoing clade Ib mpox epidemic, highlight the need for additional vaccine options, particularly single-dose options. Both the 2022 clade IIb and the 2024 clade Ib mpox epidemics have been declared by the World Health Organization (WHO) to be Public Health Emergencies of International Concern (PHEICs). We believe TNX-801 has the potential to make an impact towards preventing mpox and controlling future mpox epidemics.”

TNX-801 is a minimally replicative, live-virus vaccine based on synthesized horsepox that has been shown to provide single-dose immune protection against a monkeypox challenge with better tolerability than 20th century vaccinia live-virus vaccines in animals. In September 2024, Tonix announced that the WHO’s preferred target product profile (TPP), released at the WHO sponsored Mpox Research and Innovation Scientific Conference, aligns with the characteristics of TNX-801. Key elements of the WHO draft TPP include single-dose, durable protection, administration without special equipment, and stability at ambient temperature. Other potential beneficial characteristics include the ability to limit forward transmission, use in case-contact vaccination strategies and suitability for use in immunocompromised individuals.

About TNX-801*

TNX-801 (recombinant horsepox virus) is a single-dose, attenuated, minimally replicative, live virus vaccine based on horsepox in pre-clinical development to prevent mpox and smallpox. Tonix reported positive preclinical efficacy data, demonstrating that TNX-801 vaccination protected non-human primates against lethal challenge with monkeypox. After a single dose vaccination, TNX-801 prevented clinical disease and lesions and decreased shedding in the mouth and lungs of non-human primates. The findings are consistent with mucosal immunity and suggest the ability to block forward transmission, similar to Dr. Edward Jenner’s vaccine, which eradicated smallpox and kept mpox out of the human population. TNX-801 is based on synthesized horsepox which is believed to be more closely related to Dr. Jenner’s vaccine than 20th century vaccinia viruses.6 Smallpox vaccines descended from Jenner’s vaccine used prior to 1900 would be called horsepox by modern nomenclature. TNX-801 is delivered percutaneously with only one dose and therefore may achieve higher rates of community protection than two-dose vaccines by eliminating drop-out between doses and limiting forward transmission. Tonix has received official written response from a Type B pre-Investigational New Drug Application (IND) meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to develop TNX-801 as a potential vaccine to protect against mpox disease and smallpox. Tonix has announced a collaboration with the Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI) to design, plan and seek regulatory approval for a Phase I clinical study of TNX-801 in Kenya. The Company believes TNX-801 has the potential to make a global impact on mpox and the risk of smallpox because of its durable T-cell immune response, the potential to manufacture at scale, and the use of a lower dose than non-replicating vaccines. The FDA-approved non-replicating mpox vaccine Jynneos® requires two doses and provides a relatively short duration of protection. FDA also recently approved ACAM2000, a live, replicating vaccinia vaccine for prevention of mpox. ACAM200 is a clone from DryVax®, a 20th century vaccinia vaccine derived from the NYCBH strain. Pre-clinical results from an mRNA vaccine recently showed some protection from a Clade I monkeypox challenge, but with multiple break-through lesions in vaccinated animals.
