INDICATION 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.

Phase 1/2 trial confirms safety with repeated dosing supporting further development in early-stage disease and combination treatment settings
ATLANTA, GA – December 8, 2025 – GeoVax Labs, Inc. (Nasdaq: GOVX), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel immunotherapies and vaccines for solid tumor cancers and infectious diseases, today announced the publication of a peer-reviewed article in JCO Oncology Advances, the American Society of Clinical Oncology’s (ASCO) open-access journal.
The manuscript, titled “A Phase 1/2 Study of Intratumoral Ad/PNP (Gedeptin) with Fludarabine Phosphate in Subjects with Recurrent Head and Neck Cancer”, reports findings from a multi-center clinical trial evaluating repeated cycles of Gedeptin®, a gene-directed enzyme prodrug therapy (GDEPT), administered via intratumoral injection followed by systemic fludarabine.
Study Overview: Evaluating Repeated Dosing in a Highly Refractory Population
The Phase 1/2 trial enrolled patients with recurrent head and neck cancers who had exhausted all standard treatment options and had undergone a median of four prior lines of systemic therapy. Patients received therapy on a 28 day schedule, each consisting of intratumoral Gedeptin injections followed by intravenous fludarabine.
Key results from the publication include:
Acceptable safety profile with no new safety signals: Serious adverse events were uncommon and generally unrelated to treatment. No deaths were attributed to study therapy.
Clinical evidence of disease stability: Three of eight patients (37.5%) in this cohort of patients with end-stage disease achieved stable disease.
Successful tumor transduction and PNP transgene expression: Tumor biopsies confirmed uptake and expression of the therapeutic E. coli PNP transgene in all evaluable patients, supporting the mechanistic foundation of the Gedeptin platform.
Study results suggest that earlier intervention, higher vector dosing, improved tumor transduction, or combination therapy (e.g., with immune checkpoint inhibitors) may further increase efficacy. Preclinical findings cited in the manuscript show that Gedeptin-mediated tumor destruction may sensitize tumors to checkpoint inhibitors, offering a promising path forward.
J. Marc Pipas, MD, Executive Medical Director, Oncology of GeoVax, stated: “This publication reinforces the strong scientific rationale underpinning the Gedeptin platform. Even in a highly refractory patient population with extensive prior treatment, repeated intratumoral dosing of Gedeptin demonstrated a favorable safety profile and evidence of disease stability. Importantly, correlative analyses confirmed robust tumor transduction and PNP expression, a critical mechanistic milestone for gene-directed enzyme prodrug therapy.”
Kelly T. McKee, MD, MPH, Chief Medical Officer of GeoVax, added: “These results support the continued development of Gedeptin in settings where tumor burden is lower, patients are less heavily pretreated, or where combination strategies, particularly with immune checkpoint inhibitors, may amplify therapeutic benefit. This aligns with our strategy to advance Gedeptin into neoadjuvant studies for surgically resectable recurrent head and neck cancers.”
David Dodd, Chairman & CEO of GeoVax, stated: “The publication in the ASCO journal underscores both the scientific significance of this trial and the need for new approaches to treat recurrent head and neck cancers. Gedeptin’s targeted mechanism, combined with its repeat-dosing feasibility, offers a promising therapeutic option for patients. We look forward to expanding development into earlier disease settings and into rational combination regimens.”
About the Gedeptin® Platform
Gedeptin is a non-replicating adenoviral vector delivering the E. coli purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) gene directly into tumor tissue. Following intratumoral injection, patients receive systemic fludarabine, which is converted in PNP-expressing tumor cells into a potent cytotoxic metabolite (2-fluoroadenine, F-Ade).
Key characteristics include:
Tumor-agnostic mechanism of action, driven by localized intratumoral activation of fludarabine into the potent cytotoxin F-Ade, enabling activity independent of tumor histology or proliferation rate.
Strong bystander effect, in which the activated F-Ade diffuses to neighboring cancer cells – allowing Gedeptin to kill tumor cells even when only a small fraction is directly transduced.
Immune-sensitizing properties that enhance tumor antigen visibility and may improve responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors.
Favorable safety profile, demonstrated across early Phase 1 and Phase 1/2 studies and supported by consistent tolerability in heavily pretreated solid tumor patients.
Gedeptin is now progressing toward combination-therapy in a neoadjuvant clinical program. Building on robust preclinical data showing that Gedeptin enhances tumor sensitivity to immune checkpoint blockade, GeoVax is advancing plans to evaluate Gedeptin with agents such as pembrolizumab aiming to strengthen antitumor immune activation.

VIRGINIA CITY, NEVADA, December 8, 2025 – Comstock Inc. (NYSE American: LODE, the “Company”) today announced that one of its strategic investees, Bioleum Corporation (“Bioleum”), acquired Hexas Biomass Inc. (“Hexas”), a global leader in the development and deployment of purpose grown energy crops and biomaterials, including all of its intellectual properties and certain liabilities, in exchange for a purchase price of approximately $6.5 million comprised of approximately $3.5 million paid with 146,637 shares of Bioleum common stock at $24 per share, $500,000 in five annual cash payments of $100,000 each, commencing at closing, and $2.5 million of convertible debt, redeemable with cash payments payable from 5% of Hexas’ aggregate revenues or convertible into Bioleum common stock, also at a conversion price of $24 per share.
Hexas has developed a portfolio of proprietary intellectual properties for the propagation, production, harvesting, and processing of purpose grown crops with proven annual yields exceeding 25 to 30 dry metric tons per acre, or about 4 to 7 times the yields of traditional forestry species. Hexas’ crops are specifically designed to thrive in diverse environments, including marginal and underutilized lands. These crops enhance agricultural ecosystem without disrupting or competing with food production.
The combination of Bioleum’s high yield refining platform and Hexas’ high yield purpose grown crops enables the production of over 100 barrels of biofuel per acre of biomass production per year. For comparison, producers of soy and corn only net about 2 and 10 barrels of biofuel per acre per year, respectively. The production of Hexas’ purpose grown crops transforms marginal agricultural lands into perpetual “drop-in sedimentary oilfields” with the potential to dramatically boost domestic energy independence and expand rural economies using regenerative agricultural practices.
“Hexas was founded to make the highest and best use of natural resources by providing industries with access to abundant, carbon negative, and ecologically positive feedstocks,” said Wendy Owens, Hexas’ founder and chief executive officer. “Bioleum’s acquisition will help us to execute on that vision by accelerating commercialization and global deployment of our technologies in biofuels and multiple other biobased applications. We are very excited to continue our established track record of bioproducts leadership as we join Bioleum’s integrated system and growing team.”
“Incorporating a proprietary low-cost feedstock model into our system provides unprecedented benefits for our refining solutions and targeted supply chain partners,” added Kevin Kreisler, Bioleum’s chief executive officer. “While our solutions are designed to process most known forms of lignocellulosic biomass, the Hexas technologies will allow us to enhance, supplement, and/or dramatically expand locally available biomass by “anchoring” each of our owned and licensed refineries with a dedicated, perpetual feedstock supply, ensuring the reliability, consistency, scale, and pricing needed to minimize risk and maximize profitability.”
The U.S. DOE has previously estimated that America can produce over of one billion tons per year of waste wood and other forms of biomass for conversion into transportation fuels. That’s enough to produce more than 3 billion barrels of fuel per year with Bioleum’s refining solutions, but much of this biomass is widely dispersed and subject to regulatory, collection, and other sources of regional variability. Converting just 40 million underutilized acres of non-food producing land into profitable purpose grown biomass farms with Hexas’ high yield crops could provide enough feedstock to double that output while decreasing variability and risk for new renewable fuel projects.
Kreisler concluded, “Our ambition is to build shareholder value by systemically empowering agricultural, forestry, pulp and paper, renewable fuels, petroleum, energy, and mobility stakeholders to license and deploy our solutions across their respective industries at speeds that are far greater than Bioleum, or any other company, could ever achieve on its own. We are laser focused on developing, deploying, and enabling that system, and we couldn’t be more excited to complete this transaction.”
As part of Bioleum’s system, Hexas will continue servicing customers worldwide in the energy, including biofuels, structural and non-structural products sectors by supplying XanoFiber™ (and other purpose grown biomass from its proprietary giant grasses) to them as a low-cost, drop-in ready, reliable supply of biomass. Owens will continue to run Hexas as its president.

STAFFORD, Texas, Dec. 08, 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 completion of enrollment in the open label non-HLA-A*02 arm of FLAMINGO-01.
In the double-blinded arms of the Phase III trial, approximately 500 HLA-A*02 patients are currently planned to be randomized to GLSI-100 or placebo, and up to 250 patients of other HLA types (non-HLA-A*02) are planned to be treated with GLSI-100 in a third open label arm. The non-HLA-A*02 patients do not have the HLA-A*02 allele from either parent and represent about 55% of the patient population in FLAMINGO-01.
FLAMINGO-01 has achieved a major milestone by completing enrollment in the 250 patient open label non-HLA-A*02 arm of the Phase III trial, which is a result of the high screen rate and ensuing enrollment rate. The Company is continuing its review of the most recent data of this arm, including recurrence rates, which can be updated and/or published at any time.
The Company stopped enrolling in this arm earlier this year and is now approaching regulatory agencies to seek approval to continue enrollment of new non-HLA-A*02 patients in a randomized manner with a control arm. The Company has continued to screen a large number of these patients so that rapid enrollment of these screened patients can commence if regulatory approval is received.
The Company previously reported promising observations earlier this year showing that the immune response at baseline prior to any GLSI-100 treatment, the increasing immune response during the primary immunization series, and the safety profile of non-HLA-A*02 patients is trending similarly to the HLA-A*02 arms of FLAMINGO-01 and to the Phase IIb study, where breast cancer recurrences were reduced up to 80% or more and no metastatic breast cancer recurrences were reported. A preliminary analysis suggests that these promising trends are continuing.
CEO Snehal Patel commented, “As we continue to analyze the immune response, safety, and recurrence rate data of the 250 patient non-HLA-A*02 data set, it is important to remember that all 250 patients received GLSI-100, which is 5 times more than the approximately 50 patients treated in the Phase IIb trial. We can compare the open label recurrence rate data of these 250 treated patients to the expected historical recurrence rate for this population, which is well known and recently reported, to the HLA-A*02 arms of FLAMINGO-01, and to the Phase IIb study. In addition, we may be able to compare the recurrence rate during the first 6 months of vaccination, also called the primary immunization series or PIS, to the recurrence rate after the PIS is completed and after peak immunity is achieved. We look forward to providing updates on this analysis at any time, including publications at conferences as we have previously done for the Phase IIb trial from 2020-2022.”
Mr. Patel added, “The use of GLSI-100 in the non-HLA-A*02 patient population is an invention by the Company, and the Company believes that any patent claims related to this invention are not subject to any license, royalties, or milestone payments. These patent claims should complement other patent claims that the Company has recently filed to potentially extend patent protection of GLSI-100 beyond 2040. The Company believes that this patient population could double the number of US and European patients eligible for GLSI-100 treatment to approximately 88,000 new patients per year with a market potential using the drug prices per year of Kadcyla or Enhertu in the range of $8-10 billion per year.”
Additional updates:
The non-HLA-A*02 types that are most commonly being enrolled in FLAMINGO-01 continue to be HLA-A*03, HLA-A*24, HLA-A*01, HLA-A*11, HLA-A*68, HLA-A*29, HLA-A*30, HLA-A*23, and HLA-A*33.
The enrollment of HLA-A*02 patients in the 500 patient randomized arms continues, unaffected by the end of enrollment in the non-HLA-A*02 arm, while the Company also seeks to increase the size of these HLA-A*02 arms such that enrollment is not stopped prior to any interim analyses.
Enhertu (trastuzumab Deruxtecan [T-DXd]) treated patients continue to be eligible for enrollment in FLAMINGO-01. The Company believes that GLSI-100 will synergize with any trastuzumab based treatment in the neoadjuvant or adjuvant settings, including Enhertu.
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 are planned to be randomized to GLSI-100 or placebo, and up to 250 patients of other HLA types are planned to 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.
