Investor Notice
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and forward-looking statements described under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (Annual Report). Notwithstanding the fact that Bit Digital Inc. has not conducted operations in the PRC since September 30, 2021 we have previously disclosed under Risk Factors in our Annual Report: “We may be subject to fines and penalties for any noncompliance with or any liabilities in our former business in China in a certain period from now on.” Although the statute of limitations for non-compliance by our former business in the PRC is generally two years and the Company has been out of the PRC, for more than two years, the Authority may still find its prior bitcoin mining operations involved a threat to financial security. In such event, the two-year period would be extended to five years. If any material risk was to occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In that event, the value of our securities could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment. The risks and uncertainties we describe are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. In addition, our past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results in the future. Future changes in the network-wide mining difficulty rate or bitcoin hash rate may also materially affect the future performance of Bit Digital’s production of bitcoin. Actual operating results will vary depending on many factors including network difficulty rate, total hash rate of the network, the operations of our facilities, the status of our miners, and other factors. See “Safe Harbor Statement” below.

– Patient-reported outcomes from Phase 2 trial of oxylanthanum carbonate (OLC) demonstrate high patient satisfaction with OLC compared to their prior phosphate lowering therapy –
– Findings from a patient survey conducted in partnership with the National Kidney Foundation (NKF) showed excessive number and large size of phosphate binder pills to be top barriers to consistent medication use –
– Results to be presented in poster sessions at the NKF Spring Clinical Meetings –
LOS ALTOS, Calif., April 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Unicycive Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: UNCY), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapies for patients with kidney disease, today announced new patient-reported outcomes data from its pivotal Phase 2 study of OLC as well as from a new survey conducted by the National Kidney Foundation (NKF) with sponsorship from Unicycive. OLC is an investigational treatment for hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis. The findings will be presented today in poster sessions at the NKF Spring Clinical Meetings taking place in Boston.
OLC leverages proprietary nanoparticle technology to reduce the number and size of pills that patients must take. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted the New Drug Application (NDA) for OLC for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients with CKD on dialysis and set a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) Target Action Date of June 28, 2025.
“As many as two out of three of patients with end-stage kidney disease undergoing dialysis don’t consistently adhere to their phosphate binder treatment; common barriers are side effects, pill burden, and unpalatable formulations,” said Dr. Pablo Pergola, MD, PhD, Research Director, Clinical Advancement Center, Renal Associates, P.A., and principal investigator for the UNI-OLC-201 trial. “These new patient-reported outcomes underscore the potential of OLC to enhance adherence, reduce treatment burden and improve patient satisfaction. OLC could be a welcome new phosphate binder choice for patients with hyperphosphatemia due to its favorable tolerability, small, easy-to-swallow size and low pill burden.”
Patient-Reported Outcomes Data Patient-reported outcomes from the open-label Phase 2 UNI-OLC-201 clinical trial compared patients’ satisfaction with their pre-trial phosphate binders versus OLC at the end of the study based on responses to a questionnaire completed by 80 patients. This research will be presented by Guru Reddy, PhD., in the poster titled “Patient-Reported Outcomes in a Pivotal Clinical Study of Hyperphosphatemia: Oxylanthanum Carbonate Reduces Pill Burden by Half and Improves Adherence” (Poster # G-018) on Thursday, April 10, from 5:15–7:30 p.m. ET.
Results:
OLC reduced pill burden by 50% – patients took a median of three tablets of OLC per day versus six tablets of phosphate binders prior to the trial.
OLC improved adherence – 70% of patients reported consistent adherence with OLC compared to 58% who reported adherence to their pre-trial phosphate binders.
OLC was preferred – 79% of patients indicated a preference for OLC versus 4% who preferred their pre-trial phosphate binder medications.
OLC improved patient satisfaction – 98% of patients agreed that OLC was easy to take versus 38% who said that about their pre-trial phosphate binder medication, and 89% reported they were satisfied with OLC treatment versus 49% who were satisfied with pre-trial phosphate binders.
Patient Survey Results In partnership with Unicycive, NKF conducted an online survey of patients undergoing dialysis to assess the top barriers to phosphate binder adherence and to better understand what treatment characteristics could improve adherence. A total of 200 patients aged 40 and older completed the online survey from February 15 to May 16, 2024. This research will be presented by Dr. Hill Gallant, PhD, RD, Associate Professor of Nutrition in the Department of Food Science and Nutrition at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, in a poster titled “Pill Burden and Large Tablet Size Are Key Barriers to Phosphate Binder Adherence in Dialysis Patients” (Poster # G-297) on Thursday, April 10, from 5:15-7:30 p.m. ET.
Results showed:
Forgetfulness (63%) was the primary barrier to consistent medication use followed by excessive pill number (47%) and large pill size (47%).
Additional barriers to adherence included difficulties carrying pills (45%), gastrointestinal side effects (29%), unpleasant taste (20%), social embarrassment when taking medication (13%), and cost (10%).
Patients were more likely to prefer medication regimens with fewer and smaller pills, underscoring the impact of pill burden on adherence.
About Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC) Oxylanthanum carbonate is a next-generation lanthanum-based phosphate binding agent utilizing proprietary nanoparticle technology being developed for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). OLC has over forty issued and granted patents globally. Its potential best-in-class profile may have meaningful patient adherence benefits over currently available treatment options as it requires a lower pill burden for patients in terms of number and size of pills per dose that are swallowed instead of chewed. Based on a survey conducted in 2022, Nephrologists stated that the greatest unmet need in the treatment of hyperphosphatemia with phosphate binders is a lower pill burden and better patient compliance.1 The global market opportunity for treating hyperphosphatemia is projected to be in excess of $2.28 billion, with the North America accounting for more than $1 billion of that total.2 Despite the availability of several FDA-cleared medications, 75 percent of U.S. dialysis patients fail to achieve the target phosphorus levels recommended by published medical guidelines.3
Unicycive is seeking FDA approval of OLC via the 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway. The NDA submission package is based on data from three clinical studies (a Phase 1 study in healthy volunteers, a bioequivalence study in healthy volunteers, and a tolerability study of OLC in CKD patients on dialysis), multiple preclinical studies, and the chemistry, manufacturing and controls (CMC) data. OLC is protected by a strong global patent portfolio including issued patents on composition of matter with exclusivity until 2031, and with the potential for patent term extension until 2035.
About Hyperphosphatemia Hyperphosphatemia is a serious medical condition that occurs in nearly all patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). If left untreated, hyperphosphatemia leads to secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), which then results in renal osteodystrophy (a condition similar to osteoporosis and associated with significant bone disease, fractures and bone pain); cardiovascular disease with associated hardening of arteries and atherosclerosis (due to deposition of excess calcium-phosphorus complexes in soft tissue). Importantly, hyperphosphatemia is independently associated with increased mortality for patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis. Based on available clinical data to date, over 80% of patients show signs of cardiovascular calcification by the time they become dependent on dialysis.4
Dialysis patients are already at an increased risk for cardiovascular disease (because of underlying diseases such as diabetes and hypertension), and hyperphosphatemia further exacerbates this. Treatment of hyperphosphatemia is aimed at lowering serum phosphate levels via two means: (1) restricting dietary phosphorus intake; and (2) using, on a daily basis, and with each meal, oral phosphate binding drugs that facilitate fecal elimination of dietary phosphate rather than its absorption from the gastrointestinal tract into the bloodstream.
About Unicycive Therapeutics Unicycive Therapeutics is a biotechnology company developing novel treatments for kidney diseases. Unicycive’s lead drug candidate, oxylanthanum carbonate (OLC), is a novel investigational phosphate binding agent being developed for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis. Positive pivotal trial results were reported in June 2024 for OLC, and a New Drug Application (NDA) is under review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) Target Action Date of June 28, 2025. OLC is protected by a strong global patent portfolio including an issued patent on composition of matter with exclusivity until 2031, and with the potential patent term extension until 2035 after OLC approval. Unicycive’s second asset, UNI-494, is a patent-protected new chemical entity in clinical development for the treatment of conditions related to acute kidney injury. UNI-494 has successfully completed a Phase 1 trial. For more information, please visit Unicycive.com and follow us on LinkedIn, X, and YouTube.

Continues to Strengthen its Pandemic Preparedness and Biodefense Vaccine Portfolio
ATLANTA, GA, April 9, 2025 – GeoVax Labs, Inc. (Nasdaq: GOVX), a biotechnology company developing immunotherapies and vaccines against cancers and infectious diseases, today announced that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued a Notice of Allowance for Patent Application No. 18/394,555 titled “Replication-Deficient Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA) Expressing Marburg Virus Glycoprotein (GP) and Matrix Protein (VP40).” The allowed claims generally cover prevention of Marburg virus infection utilizing GeoVax’s proprietary MVA-based Marburg vaccine.
Previous presentations of data from nonhuman primate studies demonstrated that immunization with GeoVax’s vaccine candidate, GEO-MM01, conferred 80% survival in cynomolgus macaques following a lethal dose of Marburg virus. Vaccination protected from viremia, weight loss and death following challenge with a lethal Marburg virus dose. Evaluation of immune responses following vaccination demonstrated the presence of both neutralizing antibodies and functional T cells, indicating a breadth of responses that combine for optimal protection. GeoVax is currently evaluating study designs to assess the potential for administering different dose levels of the vaccine and different routes of vaccine delivery to optimize utility and efficacy.
David Dodd, GeoVax President and CEO, commented, “While our focus and development priorities continue to be our next-generation COVID-19 vaccine, our Mpox/smallpox vaccine and cancer immunotherapy programs, developing vaccines against lethal hemorrhagic fever viruses represents our commitment to addressing highly fatal endemic threats throughout the world. Such viruses have mortality rates between 50%-90% depending on the specific virus strain. Our team is committed to supporting the successful advancement of such a vaccine, as we recognize the critically important medical and biodefense need, reflected by the inclusion of Marburg virus in the FDA Priority Review Voucher program. Within the critically needed area of hemorrhagic fever viruses, GeoVax has successfully developed vaccine candidates addressing Ebola Zaire, Ebola Sudan and Marburg, all having demonstrated impressive results when evaluated in non-human primates. The USPTO’s recognition of our Marburg vaccine technology further validates our approach and underscores the growing value of our wholly owned, co-owned, and in-licensed intellectual property estate, now standing at over 135 granted or pending patent applications spread over 23 patent families.”
Dodd continued, “Our focus extends beyond individual product candidates—we are building a broad, durable defense platform against hemorrhagic fever viruses. We believe this strategy, supported by compelling preclinical data and prioritized by global health authorities, positions GeoVax to play a central role in pandemic preparedness and biodefense.”
About Marburg Virus
Marburg virus (MARV) is a hemorrhagic fever virus of the Filoviridae family, which also includes Ebola virus, and causes severe human disease with up to a 90% fatality rate. The Marburg virus is transmitted to people from fruit bats, and human-to-human transmission occurs through direct contact with bodily fluids, or contaminated surfaces and materials. MARV is rated by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a Risk Group 4 Pathogen. In the United States, the NIH/National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases ranks it as a Category A Priority Pathogen and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention lists it as a Category A Bioterrorism Agent. MARV typically appears in sporadic outbreaks throughout Africa and the virus continues to pose potential public health and biodefense threats. There are currently no licensed vaccines or therapeutics against the diseases caused by MARV.
About the GeoVax MVA Platform
GeoVax’s vaccine platform utilizes modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA), a large virus capable of carrying several vaccine antigens, that expresses proteins that assemble into virus-like particles (VLP) immunogens in the person receiving the vaccine. The production of VLPs in the person being vaccinated can mimic the virus production that occurs in a natural infection, stimulating both the humoral and cellular arms of the immune system to recognize, prevent, and control the target infection. The MVA-VLP derived vaccines can elicit durable immune responses in the host similar to a live-attenuated virus, while providing the safety characteristics of a replication-defective vector.
About GeoVax

Agreement includes the use of Tonix’s TNX-1500, as part of an immunomodulatory regimen to reduce rejection of Makana’s genetically engineered pig organs in xenotransplantation
Establishes framework for Makana’s kidney, heart and islet cell programs to utilize TNX-1500 for preclinical studies in support of regulatory filings for potential use in human recipients
CHATHAM, N.J. and MIAMI, April 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP), (“Tonix”) a fully-integrated biopharmaceutical company with marketed products and a pipeline of development candidates, and Makana Therapeutics, Inc. (“Makana”), a global leader in the field of xenotransplantation, today announced a collaborative research agreement under which Tonix and Makana will study Tonix’s anti-CD40L (CD40 ligand, also called CD154) monoclonal antibody candidate, TNX-1500, in combination with Makana’s human-compatible organs and cells for the treatment of organ failure. The preclinical research and development collaboration has the potential to span multiple Makana programs including kidney, heart and islet cell transplant. The goal of the preclinical studies is to support the submission of an investigational new drug application (IND) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to support compassionate use for patients undergoing xenotransplantation.
“We are excited to partner with Makana in support of our mutual goal to offer novel solutions for patients requiring organ or cellular transplantation,” said Seth Lederman, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Tonix. “We believe this strategic agreement is a promising step towards utilizing xenotransplantation in the clinic. Makana’s novel genetically engineered (GE) pigs, which have deleted swine leukocyte antigen (SLA)2, has shown improved human compatibility and several other advantages over other technologies including high rates of fertility and birthing, which potentially increases their ability to produce viable organs to satisfy a commercial market globally.”
“Despite significant progress and momentum in the field of xenotransplantation, improving organ compatibility to prevent rejection remains an ongoing challenge,” said Joseph Tector, M.D., Ph.D., Founder of Makana and a practicing transplant surgeon. “This collaboration provides Makana the opportunity to combine its novel GE pig organs with TNX-1500 in our ongoing and future preclinical studies. We view anti-CD40L as a critical part of an effective immunomodulatory regimen for successful xenotransplantation. This collaboration enables us to pursue co-development of our GE organs with the TNX-1500, which has shown best-in-class pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in a human study after showing best-in-class results in preventing rejection in 6-month studies of allo- and xenotransplantation in animals. Our mutual goal is to obtain the best human results as soon as possible.”
“We are thrilled with this collaboration utilizing TNX-1500 as an important element of our xenotransplant therapy. The collaboration with Tonix gives Makana the right product and the right partner to bring Makana toward clinical development,” said Mark Platt, President and Chief Executive Officer of Makana. “Most organ-failure patients today will never receive a lifesaving/life-changing transplant. Our achievement in developing the SLA DR knockout pig has yielded encouraging results with preclinical kidney xenografts and positions us to deliver strong outcomes in clinical development.”
TNX-1500 is an investigational, humanized Fc-modified IgG4 anti-CD40L antibody with high affinity for the CD40 ligand. CD40L is an attractive drug development target for transplant immunomodulation since the engagement of the CD40L plays a pivotal role in immune system activation by modulating both antibody and cellular immune responses.
About Makana’s Genetically Engineered (GE) Pigs
Makana began developing pigs for xenotransplantation in 2010. Makana’s 2013 creation of the Triple Knockout (TKO) Pig, lacking three key glycans responsible for hyperacute and acute organ rejection in humans, resulted in the first 1-year preclinical xeno-kidney survivor in animals1. This discovery revitalized the xeno-field and today Makana’s TKO genetics are employed across the xenotransplantation field.
Realizing that the first clinical xenografts failed because of antibody mediated rejection, Makana deferred rushing to the clinic and employed the same stepwise scientific approach to show that these early clinical failures occur because of the development of antibodies against SLA. The final result is that Makana has developed the new TKO plus SLA DR KO pig that eliminates the next barrier to clinical success. Now Makana is poised to achieve longer term clinical success.
Makana has achieved the field’s longest and most consistent preclinical survival without the need to insert human transgenes into its pig genetics. Rejection continues as a barrier to survival in the limited number of emergency IND human transplants performed with transgenic pigs, further supporting Makana’s focus on antigen discovery and deletion in lieu of relying on inserted transgenes to evade the human immune response.
Without the need for transgenes, the future commercialization of Makana’s xeno-organs through breeding will be straightforward. When compared to transgenic animals, Makana’s knockout-only pigs will breed with greater efficiency and eliminate the challenge of retaining transgenic expression. This is an important consideration, reducing both the cost of therapy and the complexity of GE pig production.
Makana’s preclinical successes with SLA-deleted pig kidneys in animal xenotransplantation has depended on the co-administration of primatized 5c8 anti-CD40L monoclonal antibody. Tonix’s TNX-1500 is an Fc-modified version of humanized 5c8, which maintains the activity of 5c8, while improving tolerability.
About TNX-1500
TNX-1500 (Fc-modified humanized anti-CD40L mAb) is a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds and functionally inhibits the CD40-ligand (CD40L), also known as CD154 or 5c8 Ag.4 The combining sites of TNX-1500 are derived from humanized 5c8 or ruplizumab, which showed promise in treating systemic lupus erythematosus.5 Chimeric primatized 5c8 showed promise in preventing rejection of organ rejection in animals.6 TNX-1500 is being developed for the prevention of allograft and xenograft rejection, for the prevention of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) and for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. TNX-1500 prevents rejection, prolongs survival and preserves graft function as a single agent or in combination with other drugs in non-human primate renal and heart allografts and renal xenografts.7-9
