Nearly 70% of Served Population Face Limited Access to a Local Pharmacy
OVERLAND PARK, Kan.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– SelectQuote, Inc. (NYSE: SLQT) (the “Company”), a leading distributor of Medicare insurance policies and owner of a rapidly-growing healthcare services platform, today released a new research brief offering in-depth insights into the complex medical and social needs of the population it serves. The findings from tens of thousands of patient health needs assessments gathered by the Company’s Healthcare Select division highlight significant challenges across chronic care management, medication access, and financial security, underscoring the critical industry need for personalized, integrated healthcare solutions.
Key Research Findings:
Underserved Beneficiaries: Given that SelectQuote and Healthcare Select connect with beneficiaries telephonically, this population significantly over-indexes in historically-underserved areas lacking significant access to more traditional healthcare providers. 45% of Healthcare Select members reside in a rural zip code and 36% reside in an urban zip code, while only 11% reside in a suburban zip code.
Chronic Conditions: 74% of the population reported that they are dealing with two or more chronic conditions.
High Prescription Use: 75% of members regularly take 5 or more prescriptions.
Financial Headwinds: As 77% of SelectRx patients report annual household income of under $20,000, Social Determinants of Health often compound the treatment of health issues. 19% report having trouble accessing food on a regular basis. 36% indicate they are worried about being able to pay for bills if they were to face a serious illness.
Medication Delays: 16% of Healthcare Select members report having delayed taking medication for financial reasons.
Adherence Challenges: 40% of members have reported either forgetting to take their medications or failing to pick up prescriptions from a pharmacy. Independent studies indicate that failure to take medications consistently as prescribed (i.e., non-adherence) contributes to reduced treatment efficacy and poor disease control, higher rates of emergency department visits and hospitalizations, and increased morbidity and mortality.
Limited Pharmacy Access: Given their geographic concentration, approximately ⅔ of the population served by the Company’s SelectRx pharmacy reside in a “pharmacy desert” with limited access to local pharmacies.
Transportation: The headwinds to quality pharmacy access are exacerbated by the fact that 31% of Healthcare Select members report that they lack access to reliable transportation.
“This research provides a clear, data-driven look at the barriers to care faced by a large segment of the Medicare-eligible population,” said Bob Grant, SelectQuote President. “The high prevalence of chronic conditions, coupled with geographic and financial obstacles, illustrates why traditional one-size-fits-all healthcare is insufficient. We are committed to using this data to drive personalized solutions that effectively address these gaps.”
Mr. Grant continued, “We purpose-built Healthcare Select and our SelectRx pharmacy model to meet the needs of these underserved Medicare beneficiaries by combining telephonic outreach, personalized care coordination, direct prescription delivery, and packaging that improves adherence. By removing barriers like transportation and limited local pharmacy access, SelectRx helps patients manage complex medication regimens and improves adherence, ultimately driving better health outcomes.”
As Healthcare Select works to address members’ most pressing gaps in care — specifically in medication adherence, Social Determinants of Health, remote diagnostics and therapeutics, and chronic condition management — the Company actively seeks partners. SelectQuote invites innovative organizations and solution providers to connect with its Business Development team to collaboratively address these pressing issues impacting member care.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – October 15, 2025) – Nicola Mining Inc. (TSXV: NIM) (OTCQB: HUSIF) (FSE: HLIA) (the “Company” or “Nicola“) is pleased to provide an update on preparation work conducted during 2025 on the Treasure Mountain Silver Project (“Treasure Mountain“) and its plan for 2026 exploration drilling program (“2026 TM Program“). The 2026 TM Program is the culmination of an airborne magnetic geophysical survey (conducted by Scott Hogg & Associates Ltd. in 2012), extensive soil sampling programs over multiple years, and 2025 field reconnaissance. Treasure Mountain is a permitted silver mine located 30 km northeast of Hope and about a 3-hour drive from Vancouver, British Columbia. Treasure Mountain was an operating mine but was put into care and maintenance in 2013[1], due to depressed silver prices and has always been a core asset to Nicola, which has been strategically waiting for higher silver prices.
As previously announced in the Company’s June 9, 2025 news release, Nicola received a multi-year area-based exploration permit (the “MYAB Permit“), allowing the Company to conduct diamond drilling and trenching at Treasure Mountain. In addition to receipt of MYAB Permit, the Company received a ten year mine lease extension (through April 26, 2032; announced on August 30, 2024), further bolstering the attractiveness of re-opening Treasure Mountain.
The area of exploration interest is northwest of the currently suspended mine (Fig. 1) and consists of several northeast-southwest trending and steeply dipping sulphide-rich veins (Fig. 2). Photos exhibited in Figure 2 are associated with 2025 field reconnaissance focused on establishing the 2026 TM Program drill targets.
Figure 1. Geological map of Treasure Mountain showing trend of mineralized veins northeast of the mine.
Initial interest in this area was driven by Coeur Mining’s (“Coeur“)[2] (NYSE: CDE) (TSX: CDM) 2012 investment into the Company giving it a 12.7% ownership at time of investment. Coeur purchased shares at a price of $1.08 ($20.6 when considering subsequent rollbacks)[3].
Previous exploration work along this trend is limited to six percussion holes totaling 274m in 1994 and 14 “backpack drill” holes totaling 25m in 2020. Widespread soil sampling was also conducted in 2019 and 2020. Limited rock samples were collected in 2020 and 2021. The most recent exploration along this trend (sampling conducted by Nicola in 2021) is described in Assessment Report #39721 (available on ARIS[4]). Results from these programs are encouraging and demonstrate the presence of vein-hosted silver, copper, lead, zinc and gold. This provides support for initial diamond drilling to establish the width of the trend and mineralization at depth. Currently mineralization is present on surface and open in all directions.
Figure 2. 2025 Field Reconnaissance Photos: (a) and (b) 10-20 cm wide quartz-sulphide veins steeply dipping and trending northeast-southwest. Close-ups of quartz veins show (c) mainly sphalerite with pyrite and chalcopyrite and (d) pyrite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite.
Peter Espig, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Recently we have garnered accelerated interest from both investors and strategics that have become increasingly excited about Treasure Mountain. At Nicola, we have always been aware of its significant potential, as highlighted by Coeur’s investment in the Company at a time prior to Nicola securing ownership of New Craigmont Copper Project and commencing gold production and pre-investment in Dominion Gold Project. In addition to these other projects, for the past decade we have continued to review, maintain and explore Treasure Mountain, which is more than an exploration project but is a fully permitted mine that can be reopened. We continue to review all possibilities and are excited for the 2026 TM Program.”

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Gyre Therapeutics (Nasdaq: GYRE), an innovative, commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to advancing fibrosis-first therapies across organ systems affected by chronic disease, today announced that its indirect, majority-owned subsidiary, Gyre Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (Gyre Pharmaceuticals), has completed patient enrollment in the 52-week Phase 3 clinical trial of its Class 1 drug, Pirfenidone capsules, for the treatment of pneumoconiosis.
A total of 272 patients have been enrolled in this multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial being conducted at 18 clinical research centers across China. The trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 52 weeks of Pirfenidone capsule treatment in patients with pneumoconiosis, a chronic occupational lung disease characterized by progressive pulmonary fibrosis.
Unmet Medical Need in Pneumoconiosis
Pneumoconiosis remains the most common and severe occupational disease in China, with more than 450,000 surviving patients and thousands of new cases reported each year. It results from long-term inhalation of mineral dusts such as silica or coal, which triggers persistent inflammation and progressive fibrosis of the lung tissue. Over time, this excessive scar formation causes diffuse fibrosis and irreversible loss of lung function. Despite its prevalence and severity, there is currently no approved therapy in China that specifically targets the fibrotic mechanisms underlying pneumoconiosis.
Based on recent expert consensus, China’s pneumoconiosis treatment landscape represents a significant unmet medical need, underscoring the importance of developing therapies specifically designed to slow or halt the progression of fibrosis and improve long-term outcomes for affected patients.
About the 52-Week Phase 3 Trial
The ongoing trial compares Pirfenidone 1,800 mg/day (600 mg tid) with placebo over a 52-week double-blind treatment period.
Primary Endpoint: Change from baseline in forced vital capacity (FVC) % predicted at Week 52.
Key Secondary Endpoints: Changes in diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLCO), 6-minute walk distance, St. George’s Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) score, and Modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea scale, as well as rates of acute exacerbations, hospitalizations, and deaths.
Safety Monitoring: Follows Gyre’s Development Safety Update Report (DSUR Dec 2023–Dec 2024). Most adverse events reported to date are mild to moderate, with no unexpected safety signals.
Interim Analysis: None planned.
About Pirfenidone (ETUARY®)
Pirfenidone is an oral antifibrotic small molecule that received its original approval in China in 2011 by Gyre Pharmaceuticals for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). It works by inhibiting TGF-β signaling and fibroblast proliferation. Gyre continues to advance Pirfenidone beyond IPF through multiple clinical programs, including the Phase 3 pneumoconiosis trial and the recently approved Phase 2/3 trial for oncology-related pulmonary complications such as radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) and checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP).
About Gyre Therapeutics
Gyre Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company headquartered in San Diego, CA, primarily focused on the development and commercialization of Hydronidone for liver fibrosis, including MASH, in the United States. Gyre’s strategy builds on its experience in mechanistic studies using MASH rodent models and clinical studies in CHB-induced liver fibrosis. In the People’s Republic of China, Gyre is advancing a broad pipeline through its indirect controlling interest in Gyre Pharmaceuticals, including therapeutic expansions of ETUARY®, and development programs for F573, F528, and F230.

Safety Standardization Mandatory Code / Insurance Specification and Recommendation
SKYX’s Safety Code Standardization Team is receiving support from a new significant prominent leader with its government safety agency’s process for a safety mandatory standardization of its electrical ceiling outlet/receptacle technology.
SKYX’s code team, led by industry veterans Mark Earley, former head of the National Electrical Code (NEC), and Eric Jacobson, former President and CEO of the American Lighting Association (ALA). Company’s safety Code Standardization team believes it will achieve assistance from additional safety organizations with its code mandatory safety standardization efforts based on the product’s significant safety aspects. Mr. Earley and Mr. Jacobson were instrumental in numerous code and safety changes in both the electrical and lighting industries. Both strongly believe that, considering the Company’s standardization progress including its product specification approval voting for by ANSI / NEMA (American National Standardization Institute / National Electrical Manufacturers Association) and being voted into 10 segments in the NEC Code Book, it has met the necessary safety conditions for becoming a ceiling safety standardization requirement for homes and buildings.
With respect to insurance companies, the Company strongly believes its products can save insurance companies many billions of dollars annually by reducing fires, ladder falls, and electrocutions among other things. Management expects that once it completes an entire range and variations of its safe advanced plug & play products it will start being recommended by insurance companies.
As electricity is a standard in every home and building, our mission is to make homes and buildings become safe-advanced and smart as the new standard.

STAFFORD, Texas, Oct. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Greenwich LifeSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: GLSI) (the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on its Phase III clinical trial, FLAMINGO-01, which is evaluating GLSI-100, an immunotherapy to prevent breast cancer recurrences, today announced the expansion of FLAMINGO-01 clinical trial to Austria.
The Company’s application to European regulators has been formally approved, adding Austria as an approved country in FLAMINGO-01 in addition to Spain, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Romania, Ireland, Portugal, Belgium, and the US.
According to the latest data collected by the European Cancer Information System (click here), a total of 6,070 new cases of breast cancer were diagnosed in Austria in 2022, which is the most common cancer diagnosed in women, representing approximately 28% of all cancers in women. Breast cancer is the leading cause of death from cancer in women in Austria with 1,789 deaths in 2022.
CEO Snehal Patel commented, “We are collaborating with principal investigators at the Ordensklinikum Linz in Upper Austria. The site approached the Company after patients asked about participating in FLAMINGO-01. We recently visited the site in Linz, where we started training activities. We hope to activate the site this year and plan to further develop the geographic strategy for Austria, where we are considering additional sites in Vienna and Salzburg.”
About FLAMINGO-01 and GLSI-100
FLAMINGO-01 (NCT05232916) is a Phase III clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GLSI-100 (GP2 + GM-CSF) in HER2 positive breast cancer patients who had residual disease or high-risk pathologic complete response at surgery and who have completed both neoadjuvant and postoperative adjuvant trastuzumab based treatment. The trial is led by Baylor College of Medicine and currently includes US and European clinical sites from university-based hospitals and academic and cooperative networks with plans to open up to 150 sites globally. In the double-blinded arms of the Phase III trial, approximately 500 HLA-A*02 patients will be randomized to GLSI-100 or placebo, and up to 250 patients of other HLA types will be treated with GLSI-100 in a third arm. The trial has been designed to detect a hazard ratio of 0.3 in invasive breast cancer-free survival, where 28 events will be required. An interim analysis for superiority and futility will be conducted when at least half of those events, 14, have occurred. This sample size provides 80% power if the annual rate of events in placebo-treated subjects is 2.4% or greater.

Nutriband files provisional patent application to enhance its AVERSA™ transdermal abuse deterrent technology being developed for patches containing opioids and stimulants with a potential for abuse.
Nutriband’s AVERSA™ abuse-deterrent technology consists of a proprietary aversive agent coating that employs taste aversion to deter oral abuse and reduce accidental exposure.
ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Nutriband Inc. (NASDAQ:NTRB)(NASDAQ:NTRBW), a company engaged in the development of prescription transdermal pharmaceutical products, today announced that it has filed a provisional patent application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to further strengthen Nutriband’s intellectual property protection for its AVERSA™ abuse deterrent transdermal technology.
The provisional patent application covers improved aversive formulations and coating application methods to enhance the abuse deterrent properties of Nutriband’s AVERSA™ transdermal technology and make it even more difficult to defeat. If this provisional patent application is converted into a non-provisional patent application and a new patent is subsequently granted, it could significantly extend the patent protection for products that utilize Nutriband’s AVERSA™ abuse deterrent technology as the statutory patent term of a US patent is 20 years from the non-provisional filing date.
The AVERSA™ abuse deterrent technology is protected by a broad international intellectual property portfolio with patents issued in 46 countries including the United States, Europe, Japan, Korea, Russia, China, Canada, Mexico, and Australia.
Nutriband’s AVERSA™ abuse-deterrent technology can be utilized to incorporate aversive agents into transdermal patches to prevent the abuse, diversion, misuse, and accidental exposure of drugs with abuse potential including opioids and stimulants. The AVERSA™ abuse-deterrent technology has the potential to improve the safety profile of transdermal drugs susceptible to abuse, such as opioids, while making sure that these drugs remain accessible to those patients who really need them.
