Release – GeoVax Highlights Single-Dose Mpox Vaccine Data at World Vaccine Congress 2026

Posted on April 2, 2026April 2, 2026 by [email protected]

Research News and Market Data on GOVX

MVA-X Platform Demonstrates Single-Dose Durable Protection Comparable to Two-Dose Regimen

ATLANTA, GA, April 2, 2026 – GeoVax Labs, Inc. (Nasdaq: GOVX), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing vaccines and immunotherapies for infectious diseases and cancer, today highlighted preclinical data presented at the World Vaccine Congress Washington 2026 supporting the potential for a single-dose Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA)-based mpox vaccine. The data demonstrate that a novel MVA vaccine construct incorporating an immunomodulatory peptide (“MVA-X”) achieved protective efficacy, comparable to the traditional two-dose MVA regimen, in a murine orthopoxvirus challenge model.

The presentation, titled “Next-Generation MVA Mpox Vaccines: Harnessing an Immunomodulatory Peptide for Single-Dose Efficacy,” was delivered by Heather Koehler, Ph.D., of Washington State University, during the Immune Profiling track on April 1, 2026.
Single-dose efficacy: the MVA-X vaccine construct achieved complete protection comparable to a two-dose MVA vaccine regimen in a lethal orthopox challenge model, while a single-administration of MVA showed only partial protection.
Durable protection: Protective immunity was maintained through Day 150 post-vaccination, with 100% survival observed in both MVA-X (single-dose) and two-dose MVA groups.
Robust viral control: MVA-X demonstrated significant reduction in lung viral burden, comparable to the two-dose MVA regimen.
Improved clinical outcomes: MVA-X vaccinated animals exhibited minimal weight loss, reduced disease severity, and preserved lung structure.
T cell-driven immunity: Protection in MVA-X vaccinated animals was independent of neutralizing antibodies, supported by enhanced CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses.

Mechanistic Innovation

The MVA-X construct incorporates a peptide designed to transiently modulate the PD-1 immune checkpoint pathway, enhancing T cell activation and durability of immune response during vaccination.

This approach enables:

Stronger and more sustained T cell responses
Enhanced immune memory
Potential for durable protection with fewer doses

This represents a novel application of immune checkpoint modulation within vaccine design.

“These findings provide an important proof-of-concept that the performance of MVA-based vaccines can be enhanced to potentially achieve single-dose protection,” said Mark Newman, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of GeoVax. “The preclinical data demonstrates a clear biological signal that supports continued exploration of immune-enhanced MVA constructs.”

David A. Dodd, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of GeoVax, added: “As mpox continues to emerge as a recurring global health and biodefense concern, the need for vaccines that are both durable and rapidly deployable has become increasingly clear. An MVA-X vaccine may offer the opportunity to meaningfully improve vaccination coverage, compliance, and outbreak response – particularly in resource-constrained or high-risk environments.”

Dodd further noted: “These results reinforce the strength and flexibility of the MVA platform that underpins our GEO-MVA program. With a defined regulatory pathway in place and preparations underway to initiate a Phase 3 immune bridging study, GeoVax is focused on advancing an MVA vaccine designed to expand global supply, support public health preparedness, and address the limitations of existing options.”

Strategic Context

Supports Single-Dose Strategy for MVA-based immunization: Potential to simplify vaccination and improve real-world deployment
Aligns with Market Need: Potential to addresses drawbacks of current mpox vaccines, including multi-dose requirements and durability

About the Study

The study evaluated MVA-X, an MVA-based vaccine incorporating an immunomodulatory peptide sequence designed to enhance T cell responses. In murine models, animals were challenged with high-dose vaccinia virus at multiple timepoints (Days 55, 90, and 150), with outcomes including survival, viral load, clinical pathology, and immune response.

About GeoVax

GeoVax Labs, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development of vaccines and immunotherapies addressing high-consequence infectious diseases and solid tumor cancers. GeoVax’s priority program is GEO-MVA, a Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA)–based vaccine targeting mpox and smallpox. The program is advancing under an expedited regulatory pathway, with plans to initiate a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial in the second half of 2026, to address critical global needs for expanded orthopoxvirus vaccine supply and biodefense preparedness. In oncology, GeoVax is developing Gedeptin®, a gene-directed enzyme prodrug therapy (GDEPT) designed to enhance immune checkpoint inhibitor activity. Gedeptin has completed a multicenter Phase 1/2 clinical trial in advanced head and neck cancer and is being advanced into combination strategies, including planned neoadjuvant and first-line settings. GeoVax’s broader pipeline includes the development of GEO-CM04S1, a next-generation COVID-19 vaccine candidate being evaluated in immunocompromised and other patient populations. GeoVax maintains a global intellectual property portfolio supporting its infectious disease and oncology programs and continues to evaluate strategic partnerships and funding opportunities aligned with its development priorities.

FDA Fast Track designation supports accelerated development and expedites regulatory review
Norovirus is responsible for an estimated 685 million global cases each year and approximately $60 billion in worldwide economic impact

BOTHELL, Wash., April 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cocrystal Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: COCP) (“Cocrystal” or the “Company”) announces that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Fast Track designation to its oral, direct-acting protease inhibitor, CDI-988, the first oral antiviral candidate being developed for treatment and prophylaxis of norovirus infection.

FDA Fast Track designation aims to facilitate the development and accelerate the review process for drugs that treat serious conditions and address unmet medical needs. The designation enables early and frequent communication with the FDA throughout the development process, allows for rolling review of a New Drug Application (NDA), and may qualify a product for Priority Review at the time of NDA submission.

CDI-988 was designed and developed as an inhibitor of a highly conserved region of noroviruses, coronaviruses, and other 3CL viral proteases. A Phase 1b norovirus challenge study is underway at Emory University School of Medicine to evaluate CDI-988 to both prevent and treat norovirus infection.

“We are pleased that the FDA has granted Fast Track designation for CDI-988, marking a significant milestone for Cocrystal and a critical step toward helping patients with norovirus,” said Sam Lee, Ph.D., President and co‑CEO of Cocrystal Pharma. “Norovirus infections are highly contagious and can cause acute gastroenteritis, resulting in nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, diarrhea, fatigue, fever and dehydration. While most people recover within a few days, immunocompromised individuals can experience chronic, long-term norovirus infections that can persist for weeks to years. Based on compelling data generated to date, we believe that CDI-988 has the potential to both prevent and treat norovirus infection.

“This designation further validates using our unique structure-based drug discovery technology to design pan-viral antivirals that are effective new treatment options,” added Dr. Lee. “We look forward to more frequent interactions with the FDA with the goal of delivering the first therapeutic and preventive medicine to treat norovirus infections.”

About Norovirus

Norovirus is a leading cause of acute gastroenteritis, responsible for an estimated 685 million global cases each year and approximately $60 billion in worldwide economic impact. In the United States alone, the virus is associated with 21 million infections annually, resulting in around 109,000 hospitalizations, 465,000 emergency department visits, and 900 deaths. The estimated annual economic burden in the U.S. exceeds $10.6 billion. In developing nations, norovirus contributes to up to 1.1 million hospitalizations and 218,000 pediatric deaths each year.

Cocrystal’s ongoing Phase 1b randomized, double‑blind, placebo‑controlled challenge study (NCT07198139) at Emory University School of Medicine will evaluate CDI‑988 in up to 40 healthy adults. The primary endpoint is a reduction in the incidence of clinical symptoms, with secondary endpoints assessing viral shedding, disease severity, safety, and pharmacokinetics.

About Cocrystal Pharma’s Structure-Based Drug Discovery Platform

In the third quarter of 2025, the Company announced the issuance of $25 million of a new series of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, at a premium conversion price of $2.50 per share of Class A Common Stock. The investment was made through the conversion of a portion of existing debt into the new class of perpetual convertible preferred stock. The preferred stock is redeemable in whole or in part at the Company’s direction, votes on an as-converted basis with the Class A common stock, and carries a 10% cumulative annual dividend payable if, as and when declared by the Company’s board of directors.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company issued an additional $10 million of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. At the end of October 2025, the Company expanded its Equity Reserve Facility by 50 million shares, approved by stockholders, to a total facility amount of $100 million. The Company raised $7.3 million through the Equity Reserve Facility in the twelve months ended December 31, 2025.

Subsequent to the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company implemented a 55-to-1 reverse stock split of all classes of its common stock. The reverse stock split was approved by Direct Digital Holdings’ Board of Directors and subsequently by its stockholders on December 30, 2025, allowing the Company to regain compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price and maintain its Nasdaq listing. This listing is a key asset and provides heightened visibility among institutional investors, which is foundational to the Company’s go forward strategy to build and maintain a strengthened investor base.

Diana Diaz, Chief Financial Officer, commented, “We took several steps in the fourth quarter of 2025 and throughout the year to strengthen our balance sheet and enhance our access to capital, successfully returning Direct Digital Holdings to Nasdaq compliance. Revenue growth on the buy-side of our business in 2025 was encouraging, and with the support of our strategic pivot to a more efficient model, we believe that we are well positioned to deliver improved results in 2026.”

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws that are subject to certain risks, trends and uncertainties. We use words such as “could,” “would,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “expect,” “likely,” “believe,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project” and other similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements, but not all forward-looking statements include these words. All of our forward-looking statements involve estimates and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, any such statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the information described under the caption “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”) and subsequent periodic and or current reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based on assumptions that we have made in light of our industry experience and our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you read and consider this press release, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control) and assumptions.

Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual operating and financial performance and cause our performance to differ materially from the performance expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. We believe these factors include, but are not limited to, the following: the ability to realize the benefits of our strategic shift to focusing on driving digital marketing spend among buy-side and new enterprise customers; the restrictions and covenants imposed upon us by our credit facilities; the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, which may hinder our ability to obtain future financing; our ability to secure additional financing to meet our capital needs; our ability to maintain compliance with the listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market; any significant fluctuations caused by our high customer concentration; risks related to non-payment by our clients; reputational and other harms caused by our failure to detect advertising fraud; operational and performance issues with our platform, whether real or perceived, including a failure to respond to technological changes or to upgrade our technology systems; restrictions on the use of third-party “cookies,” mobile device IDs or other tracking technologies, which could diminish our platform’s effectiveness; unfavorable publicity and negative public perception about our industry, particularly concerns regarding data privacy and security relating to our industry’s technology and practices, and any perceived failure to comply with laws and industry self-regulation; our failure to manage our growth effectively; the difficulty in identifying and integrating any future acquisitions or strategic investments; any changes or developments in legislative, judicial, regulatory or cultural environments related to information collection, use and processing; challenges related to our buy-side clients that are destination marketing organizations and that operate as public/private partnerships; any strain on our resources or diversion of our management’s attention as a result of being a public company; the intense competition of the digital advertising industry and our ability to effectively compete against current and future competitors; any significant inadvertent disclosure or breach of confidential and/or personal information we hold, or of the security of our or our customers’, suppliers’ or other partners’ computer systems; as a holding company, we depend on distributions from Direct Digital Holdings, LLC (“DDH LLC”) to pay our taxes, expenses (including payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement) and any amount of any dividends we may pay to the holders of our common stock; any failure by us to maintain or implement effective internal controls or to detect fraud; and other factors and assumptions discussed in our Form 10-K and subsequent periodic and current reports we may file with the SEC.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should any of these assumptions prove to be incorrect, our actual operating and financial performance may vary in material respects from the performance projected in these forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement contained in this press release to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which it is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances, and we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. New factors that could cause our business not to develop as we expect emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each currently known or new factor on our results of operations or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
