Outstanding measure of efficacy relative to high-risk cancers with limited treatment options
CHICAGO, Oct. 23, 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 highlights from a recent presentation at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2025 held in Berlin, Germany. Starting October 19, 2025, MAIA showcased two e-posters at ESMO detailing its ongoing Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trials of ateganosine in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
“The posters showcased at ESMO 2025 featured exceptional extended survival in third-line NSCLC patients. In addition, as of September 17, 2025, a patient that began therapy in March 2023 has shown survival of 30 months, or 912 days, an outstanding measure relative to many of the high-risk cancers,” said MAIA CEO Vlad Vitoc, M.D. “Very few options exist for patients who are refractory or resistant to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). We believe that a survival of over two years is a clear signal of ateganosine’s role in effectively targeting and eliminating NSCLC tumor cells.”
The THIO-101 patient with 30-month survival received therapy every three weeks, and concluded treatment upon reaching the maximum treatment duration of 2 years based on protocol requirements.
Presentation 1: A Phase 2 Study of Ateganosine (THIO; 6-thio-2′-deoxyguanosine) in Combination with Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (ICI) in Patients with Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Resistant to Prior ICI and Chemotherapy: THIO-101 Trial in Progress
Presentation 2: A Phase 3 Study of Ateganosine (THIO) Sequenced with Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (ICI) versus Standard of Care Chemotherapy in ICI-Resistant Advanced NSCLC: THIO-104 Trial in Progress
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-101 Phase 2 Clinical Trial THIO-101 is a multicenter, open-label, dose finding Phase 2 clinical trial. It is the first trial designed to evaluate ateganosine’s anti-tumor activity when followed by PD-(L)1 inhibition. The trial is testing the hypothesis that low doses of ateganosine administered prior to cemiplimab (Libtayo®) will enhance and prolong immune response in patients with advanced NSCLC who previously did not respond or developed resistance and progressed after first-line treatment regimen containing another checkpoint inhibitor. The trial design has two primary objectives: (1) to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ateganosine administered as an anticancer compound and a priming immune activator (2) to assess the clinical efficacy of ateganosine using Overall Response Rate (ORR) as the primary clinical endpoint. The expansion of the study will assess overall response rates (ORR) in advanced NSCLC patients receiving third line (3L) therapy who were resistant to previous checkpoint inhibitor treatments (CPI) and chemotherapy. Treatment with ateganosine followed by cemiplimab (Libtayo®) has shown an acceptable safety profile to date in a heavily pre-treated population. For more information on this Phase II trial, please visit ClinicalTrials.gov using the identifier NCT05208944.
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.

FOCUS is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover pilot study evaluating Tonix’s investigational intranasal potentiated oxytocin products in patients with Arginine-Vasopressin Deficiency (AVP-D)
The trial is intended to generate preliminary data to inform future potential clinical studies of oxytocin replacement therapy in AVP-D
CHATHAM, N.J., Oct. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP) (“Tonix” or the “Company”), a fully integrated biotechnology company with marketed products and a pipeline of development candidates, today announced that the first patient has been dosed in the investigator-initiated FOCUS study (NCT04789148) at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) in adult patients with arginine-vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D), a rare endocrine disorder associated with oxytocin deficiency and adverse mental health outcomes, formerly known as central diabetes insipidus.
“Patients with AVP-D often experience mental health and quality-of-life challenges that are not adequately addressed by current interventions,” said Seth Lederman, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals. “Oxytocin plays an important role in regulating mood and socioemotional functioning, and evidence suggests that AVP-D is associated with oxytocin deficiency. We are pleased to support the FOCUS study at MGH, which will evaluate our investigational intranasal potentiated oxytocin products (TNX-1900/TNX-2900) in this population and may help lay the groundwork for future studies of oxytocin replacement therapy.”
“The FOCUS study uses a randomized, placebo-controlled crossover design that enables within-patient comparisons of placebo and investigational intranasal potentiated oxytocin product at different doses,” said Elizabeth Lawson, M.D., M.M.Sc., principal investigator of the study and Director, Interdisciplinary Oxytocin Research Program in the Neuroendocrine Unit, Department of Medicine at MGH. “This approach will provide critical first data to inform future larger-scale clinical trials for patients with AVP-D. Ultimately, our goal is to generate insights that can lead to better treatments and improved quality of life for patients living with this condition.”
The FOCUS study (Feasibility of Oxytocin for Clinical Use and Socioemotional wellbeing) is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover pilot study that will evaluate single-dose investigational intranasal potentiated oxytocin product at two different doses (6 IU, TNX-2900 and 24 IU, TNX-1900) on markers of anxiety, depression, and socioemotional functioning in patients with AVP-D, formerly known as central diabetes insipidus. An exploratory analysis will assess the effects of two weeks of the investigational products replacement on mental health outcomes.
About Tonix’s Potentiated Oxytocin Platform (TNX-1900 and TNX-2900) TNX-1900 and TNX-2900 are based on Tonix’s patented intranasal Mg2+-potentiated oxytocin formulations. Both are drug-device combination products, each with an intranasal actuator device that delivers oxytocin into the nasal cavity. TNX-1900 is a proprietary formulation of oxytocin in development as a candidate for prevention of chronic migraine and other conditions. TNX-2900 is in development for use by children and adolescents with Prader-Willi syndrome. The formulations will also be developed for craniofacial pain conditions. Tonix has a license with the University of Geneva for the use of the intranasal potentiated oxytocin products in the treatment of insulin resistance and related conditions. The addition of magnesium to the oxytocin formulation enhances oxytocin receptor binding1,2 as well as oxytocin’s inhibitory effects on trigeminal neurons and resultant craniofacial analgesic effects, as demonstrated in animal models3. Intranasal oxytocin has been shown to be well tolerated in several clinical trials in both adults and children3. Targeted nasal delivery results in low systemic exposure4,5 and lower risk of non-CNS, off-target effects. Oxytocin is a naturally occurring human peptide hormone that also acts as a neurotransmitter within the central nervous system (CNS). It is believed to be more than 600 million years old and is present in vertebrates including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish. Oxytocin also has no recognized addiction potential. It was initially approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as Pitocin®, an intravenous infusion or intramuscular injection drug, for use in pregnant women to induce labor and control postpartum bleeding or hemorrhage. An intranasal formulation of oxytocin is marketed in some European countries to assist in breast milk production as Syntocinon® (oxytocin nasal 40 international units/ml).

Investigator-Initiated Studies Using TNX-1900 at Mass General Hospital (MGH) In addition to the recently initiated FOCUS study, Dr. Lawson has three other ongoing investigator-initiated trials using TNX-1900.
The STROBE (STRategy of Oxytocin for Binge Eating) study is a Phase 2 randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TNX-1900 for the treatment of binge-eating disorder in adults. The 8-week trial has a target enrollment of at least 60 participants 18-70 years old with binge-eating. Subjects are randomized to receive TNX-1900 or placebo and are studied at MGH. Subjects self-administer TNX-1900 or placebo as two sprays total (one spray in each nostril) up to four times per day for 8 weeks. The primary endpoint is 8-week change from baseline in binge frequency. For more information, see ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05664516.
The POWER (Pediatric Oxytocin Weight and Energy Research) study is a Phase 2 randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TNX-1900 for the treatment of pediatric obesity. The 12-week trial has a target enrollment of 75 participants 12-18 years old with obesity (BMI ≥95th percentile for age and gender). Subjects are randomized to receive TNX-1900 or placebo. Subjects self-administer TNX-1900 or placebo as two sprays total (one spray in each nostril) before meals and at bedtime for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint is 12-week change in body mass index standard deviation score (BMI-SDS) versus placebo. For more information, see ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04551482.
The BOX (Bone Oxytocin) study is a Phase 2, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effects of twice daily administration of TNX-1900 on bone measures in children with autism spectrum disorder. Study subjects, ages six to 18 years old, are randomized 1:1 to receive TNX-1900 twice per day or placebo for 12 months in the double-blind phase, followed by a six-month open label phase during which all study subjects receive TNX-1900 twice daily. The primary endpoint is the difference between TNX-1900 compared to placebo groups in 12-month change in whole body (less head bone) mineral density Z-scores. A Z-score compares one’s bone density to the average bone density of age and sex matched controls. For more information, see ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05754073.

All of Tonix’s forward-looking statements are expressly qualified by all such risk factors and other cautionary statements. The information set forth herein speaks only as of the date thereof.
TONMYA is indicated for the treatment of fibromyalgia in adults.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
TONMYA is contraindicated:
In patients with hypersensitivity to cyclobenzaprine or any inactive ingredient in TONMYA. Hypersensitivity reactions may manifest as an anaphylactic reaction, urticaria, facial and/or tongue swelling, or pruritus. Discontinue TONMYA if a hypersensitivity reaction is suspected.
With concomitant use of monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors or within 14 days after discontinuation of an MAO inhibitor. Hyperpyretic crisis seizures and deaths have occurred in patients who received cyclobenzaprine (or structurally similar tricyclic antidepressants) concomitantly with MAO inhibitors drugs.
During the acute recovery phase of myocardial infarction, and in patients with arrhythmias, heart block or conduction disturbances, or congestive heart failure.
In patients with hyperthyroidism.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Embryofetal toxicity: Based on animal data, TONMYA may cause neural tube defects when used two weeks prior to conception and during the first trimester of pregnancy. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk and to use effective contraception during treatment and for two weeks after the final dose. Perform a pregnancy test prior to initiation of treatment with TONMYA to exclude use of TONMYA during the first trimester of pregnancy.
Serotonin syndrome: Concomitant use of TONMYA with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), tricyclic antidepressants, tramadol, bupropion, meperidine, verapamil, or MAO inhibitors increases the risk of serotonin syndrome, a potentially life-threatening condition. Serotonin syndrome symptoms may include mental status changes, autonomic instability, neuromuscular abnormalities, and/or gastrointestinal symptoms. Treatment with TONMYA and any concomitant serotonergic agent should be discontinued immediately if serotonin syndrome symptoms occur and supportive symptomatic treatment should be initiated. If concomitant treatment with TONMYA and other serotonergic drugs is clinically warranted, careful observation is advised, particularly during treatment initiation or dosage increases.
Tricyclic antidepressant-like adverse reactions: Cyclobenzaprine is structurally related to TCAs. TCAs have been reported to produce arrhythmias, sinus tachycardia, prolongation of the conduction time leading to myocardial infarction and stroke. If clinically significant central nervous system (CNS) symptoms develop, consider discontinuation of TONMYA. Caution should be used when TCAs are given to patients with a history of seizure disorder, because TCAs may lower the seizure threshold. Patients with a history of seizures should be monitored during TCA use to identify recurrence of seizures or an increase in the frequency of seizures.
Atropine-like effects: Use with caution in patients with a history of urinary retention, angle-closure glaucoma, increased intraocular pressure, and in patients taking anticholinergic drugs.
CNS depression and risk of operating a motor vehicle or hazardous machinery: TONMYA monotherapy may cause CNS depression. Concomitant use of TONMYA with alcohol, barbiturates, or other CNS depressants may increase the risk of CNS depression. Advise patients not to operate a motor vehicle or dangerous machinery until they are reasonably certain that TONMYA therapy will not adversely affect their ability to engage in such activities.
Oral mucosal adverse reactions: In clinical studies with TONMYA, oral mucosal adverse reactions occurred more frequently in patients treated with TONMYA compared to placebo. Advise patients to moisten the mouth with sips of water before administration of TONMYA to reduce the risk of oral sensory changes (hypoesthesia). Consider discontinuation of TONMYA if severe reactions occur.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥2% and at a higher incidence in TONMYA-treated patients compared to placebo-treated patients) were oral hypoesthesia, oral discomfort, abnormal product taste, somnolence, oral paresthesia, oral pain, fatigue, dry mouth, and aphthous ulcer.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
MAO inhibitors: Life-threatening interactions may occur.
Other serotonergic drugs: Serotonin syndrome has been reported.
CNS depressants: CNS depressant effects of alcohol, barbiturates, and other CNS depressants may be enhanced.
Tramadol: Seizure risk may be enhanced.
Guanethidine or other similar acting drugs: The antihypertensive action of these drugs may be blocked.
USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
Pregnancy: Based on animal data, TONMYA may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. The limited amount of available observational data on oral cyclobenzaprine use in pregnancy is of insufficient quality to inform a TONMYA-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Advise pregnant women about the potential risk to the fetus with maternal exposure to TONMYA and to avoid use of TONMYA two weeks prior to conception and through the first trimester of pregnancy. Report pregnancies to the Tonix Medicines, Inc., adverse-event reporting line at 1-888-869-7633 (1-888-TNXPMED).
Lactation: A small number of published cases report the transfer of cyclobenzaprine into human milk in low amounts, but these data cannot be confirmed. There are no data on the effects of cyclobenzaprine on a breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for TONMYA and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from TONMYA or from the underlying maternal condition.
Pediatric use: The safety and effectiveness of TONMYA have not been established.
Geriatric patients: Of the total number of TONMYA-treated patients in the clinical trials in adult patients with fibromyalgia, none were 65 years of age and older. Clinical trials of TONMYA did not include sufficient numbers of patients 65 years of age and older to determine whether they respond differently from younger adult patients.
Hepatic impairment: The recommended dosage of TONMYA in patients with mild hepatic impairment (HI) (Child Pugh A) is 2.8 mg once daily at bedtime, lower than the recommended dosage in patients with normal hepatic function. The use of TONMYA is not recommended in patients with moderate HI (Child Pugh B) or severe HI (Child Pugh C). Cyclobenzaprine exposure (AUC) was increased in patients with mild HI and moderate HI compared to subjects with normal hepatic function, which may increase the risk of TONMYA-associated adverse reactions.
Please see additional safety information in the full Prescribing Information.
To report suspected adverse reactions, contact Tonix Medicines, Inc. at 1-888-869-7633, or the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.

Update on Site Acquisition
Sky Harbour currently has campuses operating at Houston’s Sugar Land Regional Airport (SGR), Nashville International Airport (BNA), Miami Opa-Locka Executive Airport (OPF), San Jose Mineta International Airport (SJC), Camarillo Airport (CMA), Phoenix Deer Valley Airport (DVT), Dallas’s Addison Airport (ADS), Seattle’s King County International Airport – Boeing Field (BFI); one campus nearing construction completion at Denver’s Centennial Airport (APA); campuses in pre-development at Chicago Executive Airport (PWK), Sky Harbour’s first four New-York-metro area airports – Bradley International Airport (BDL), Hudson Valley Regional Airport (POU), Trenton-Mercer Airport (TTN), and Stewart International Airport (SWF); Orlando Executive Airport (ORL), Dulles International Airport (IAD), Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC), and Portland-Hillsboro Airport (HIO).
We reiterate our prior guidance of five additional airport ground leases to be announced by the end of 2025, for a total portfolio of 23 airports by year end.
Update on Construction and Development Activities, Change in Development Leadership
As reported on our monthly activity reports filed with MSRB/EMMA, and available on our website, Dallas Addison (ADS) achieved its first Certificates of Occupancy in Q2 and has commenced resident flight operations. Denver Centennial (APA) achieved its first Certificates of Occupancy last month and will commence resident flight operations in the coming weeks. Please see the following link for the last monthly construction report:
Miami Opa Locka (OPF) Phase 2 commenced construction in Q2 and is expected to be completed by Q2 2026.
Outgoing COO, Will Whitesell, who led the Company’s construction division, has entered an amicable separation agreement with the Company and has assisted in an orderly transfer of his responsibilities. The Company is grateful for Will’s commitment and his contributions and wishes him much success in his future endeavors.
Phil Amos, a 40-year veteran of the Pre-Engineered Metal Building (PEMB) industry, and co-founder of A&F Contractors, has joined Sky Harbour as Head of Construction and President of Sky Harbour’s newly-formed, wholly-owned development subsidiary, Ascend Aviation Services (“Ascend”). Ascend brings specialized airport construction-management and in-house General Contracting capabilities to Sky Harbour. Ascend is headquartered in Houston, TX, and staffed by veterans of the airport construction industry around the United States, including legacy members of the Sky Harbour development team. In addition to its construction management and general contracting functions, Ascend oversees the operations of Stratus Building Systems, Sky Harbour’s wholly-owned PEMB manufacturing subsidiary. Ascend and Stratus together constitute a vertically-integrated, specialized airport infrastructure developer. Mr. Amos, while at A&F, served as the general contractor for Sky Harbour’s first hangar campus at Sugar Land Regional Airport, which was delivered on time and under budget.
Update on Leasing Activities
Stabilized campuses: The Company continues to enjoy higher-than-forecast revenue per square foot at its stabilized campuses. Revenue per square foot continues to grow as legacy hangar leases turn or are renewed.
New campuses: The Company has executed the first six hangar leases at its new Denver, Dallas and Phoenix campuses, and is under LOI for additional leases. The Company expects to meet its revenue run-rate targets at the new campuses within six months.
Pre-leasing: The Company has initiated a pilot project at two airports – Bradley International Airport (BDL) and Dulles International Airport (IAD) to pre-lease hangar space prior to construction commencement. The objective is to take advantage of growing awareness of the Sky Harbour HBO value proposition within the US Business Aviation industry to a) reduce lease-up times, b) better curate resident communities, and c) integrate customized resident improvements during construction (as opposed to retrofitting). Hangar leases have been executed at both airports at revenue rates that present an introductory pricing advantage to pre-lease residents while still delivering above-target per-square-foot revenue to the Company. Additional pre-leases are under LOI.
Update on Airport Operations
As of Q3, the Company is conducting flight operations at nine airports.
Under the leadership of Marty Kretchman, Senior Vice President of Airports, the company has transitioned to a centralized operating model, featuring National Directors of Line Training; Facilities; and Ground Support Equipment (GSE).
Surveys of current residents indicate that Sky Harbour’s HBO service offering has become a key differentiating component of the Sky Harbour value proposition. The Company plans to continue to invest in constant improvement in airfield operations, through selective recruiting, rigorous training, detailed and thoughtful operating procedures, and constant innovation in collaboration with Sky Harbour residents.
Update on Capital Formation
After several quarters of “dual tracking” the review of various debt funding alternatives and proposals, the Company has decided to pursue a tax-exempt bank debt facility in lieu of a bond issue.
We are currently in advanced discussions with a major US financial institution for an expected five (5) year drawdown construction facility of $200 million, with an expected indicative interest rate of 80% of 3-month SOFR plus 200 basis points (~5.47% in the current market).
Our debt financing plan is to fund the next 5-6 airport projects using this facility and internal equity. The Company expects to replace this facility with permanent tax-exempt bonds in the next 3-4 years. We expect to close the facility on or about August 28th. However, we can provide no assurance on exact terms or the timing of this facility.
Tal Keinan commented: “As Sky Harbour navigates the transition from a tactical team, emphasizing agility, innovation and flexibility, to a high-growth organization, increasingly embracing process, discipline and specialization, five constants will continue to guide our leadership: 1) Obsessive focus on the Resident, 2) Commitment to building long-term shareholder value, 3) Uncompromising pursuit of professional excellence, 4) Cost-efficiency, and 5) Individual ownership of results. We value the reputation we are building in business aviation and intend to continue building it for years to come.”
