Rendever Receives Nearly $4.5 Million in NIH Funding to Overcome Social Isolation for Older Adults while Supporting Caregivers




Rendever Receives Nearly $4.5 Million in NIH Funding to Overcome Social Isolation for Older Adults while Supporting Caregivers

BOSTON, Nov. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Rendever, the company leading the industry in immersive technology for aging, has secured nearly $4.5 million in grant funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to improve the aging process through technology-enabled social networks. The funding includes $3.8 million for the Thrive At Home Program and an additional grant to build a caregiver support network in VR. These funds will pave the way for Rendever to bring their technology to the large majority of individuals and caregivers who are aging in place and lacking in structural social support.

This significant investment continues Rendever’s work alongside the University of California in Santa Barbara, and also involves new partnerships with the research organization RAND and with Right at Home, a leading provider of home care services, to bring this technology into the home care market. Together, they will conduct studies to evaluate the effectiveness of VR technology in building relationships across living environments, thereby reducing social isolation, improving mental health, and enhancing overall well-being throughout the aging lifespan. At the same time, Rendever will be studying the impact of caregiving tools, including its recent Dementia & Empathy training program. With the definition and experience of “home” shifting continually in a way that can disrupt critical social engagement, this initiative has the potential to revolutionize the way seniors experience care and community.

“Our Phase II trial has shown the power of VR to effectively build and enhance family relationships across distances – even across country lines. The future of aging depends on technology that effectively reshapes how we experience these core parts of the human experience as we get older,” said Kyle Rand, Rendever’s CEO. “We know there’s nothing more holistically impactful than our social health. Over the next three years, we’ll work across the industry to build the next generation of community infrastructure that delivers real happiness and forges new relationships, all while driving meaningful health outcomes.”

Previous work in this NIH line of research has shown that family members experience a significant reduction in stress and depression after a four-week social intervention in Rendever. Recent results show that the positive effects of social VR interventions are increased for families navigating dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease.

Along with this funding announcement, Rendever is welcoming Sarah Thomas to its Board of Directors. Thomas is a global expert on aging, serving as both a thought leader and a venture partner in the AgeTech industry. Notably, she’s worked with major companies to launch products in new aging markets and has been integral in the formation of membership models that transform the senior living industry.

“I’m honored to join Rendever’s Board at a pivotal moment for AgeTech adoption,” said Thomas. “Virtual reality is proving its power to combat isolation, improve mental and cognitive health, and elevate quality of life for older adults. I look forward to helping scale Rendever’s impact across senior living and into the home – advancing clinically-validated, engaging, and accessible VR experiences that enable older adults to live fuller, healthier, more connected lives.”

ASH Presentations (December 6-9, 2025)

CARVYKTI^® IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

INCREASED EARLY MORTALITY – In CARTITUDE-4, a (1:1) randomized controlled trial, there was a numerically higher percentage of early deaths in patients randomized to the CARVYKTI^® treatment arm compared to the control arm. Among patients with deaths occurring within the first 10 months from randomization, a greater proportion (29/208; 14%) occurred in the CARVYKTI^® arm compared to (25/211; 12%) in the control arm. Of the 29 deaths that occurred in the CARVYKTI^® arm within the first 10 months of randomization, 10 deaths occurred prior to CARVYKTI^® infusion, and 19 deaths occurred after CARVYKTI^® infusion. Of the 10 deaths that occurred prior to CARVYKTI^® infusion, all occurred due to disease progression, and none occurred due to adverse events. Of the 19 deaths that occurred after CARVYKTI^® infusion, 3 occurred due to disease progression, and 16 occurred due to adverse events. The most common adverse events were due to infection (n=12).

CYTOKINE RELEASE SYNDROME (CRS), including fatal or life-threatening reactions, occurred following treatment with CARVYKTI^®. Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® for RRMM in the CARTITUDE-1 & -4 studies (N=285), CRS occurred in 84% (238/285), including ≥ Grade 3 CRS (ASTCT 2019) in 4% (11/285) of patients. Median time to onset of CRS, any grade, was 7 days (range: 1 to 23 days). CRS resolved in 82% with a median duration of 4 days (range: 1 to 97 days). The most common manifestations of CRS in all patients combined (≥10%) included fever (84%), hypotension (29%) and aspartate aminotransferase increased (11%). Serious events that may be associated with CRS include pyrexia, hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, respiratory failure, disseminated intravascular coagulation, capillary leak syndrome, and supraventricular and ventricular tachycardia. CRS occurred in 78% of patients in CARTITUDE-4 (3% Grade 3 to 4) and in 95% of patients in CARTITUDE-1 (4% Grade 3 to 4).

Identify CRS based on clinical presentation. Evaluate for and treat other causes of fever, hypoxia, and hypotension. CRS has been reported to be associated with findings of HLH/MAS, and the physiology of the syndromes may overlap. HLH/MAS is a potentially life-threatening condition. In patients with progressive symptoms of CRS or refractory CRS despite treatment, evaluate for evidence of HLH/MAS.

Confirm that a minimum of 2 doses of tocilizumab are available prior to infusion of CARVYKTI^®.

Of the 285 patients who received CARVYKTI^® in clinical trials, 53% (150/285) patients received tocilizumab; 35% (100/285) received a single dose, while 18% (50/285) received more than 1 dose of tocilizumab. Overall, 14% (39/285) of patients received at least 1 dose of corticosteroids for treatment of CRS.

Monitor patients at least daily for 7 days following CARVYKTI^® infusion for signs and symptoms of CRS. Monitor patients for signs or symptoms of CRS for at least 2 weeks after infusion. At the first sign of CRS, immediately institute treatment with supportive care, tocilizumab, or tocilizumab and corticosteroids.

Counsel patients to seek immediate medical attention should signs or symptoms of CRS occur at any time.

NEUROLOGIC TOXICITIES, which may be severe, life-threatening, or fatal, occurred following treatment with CARVYKTI^®. Neurologic toxicities included ICANS, neurologic toxicity with signs and symptoms of Parkinsonism, GBS, immune mediated myelitis, peripheral neuropathies, and cranial nerve palsies. Counsel patients on the signs and symptoms of these neurologic toxicities, and on the delayed nature of onset of some of these toxicities. Instruct patients to seek immediate medical attention for further assessment and management if signs or symptoms of any of these neurologic toxicities occur at any time.

Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® in the CARTITUDE-1 & 4 studies for RRMM, one or more neurologic toxicities occurred in 24% (69/285), including ≥ Grade 3 cases in 7% (19/285) of patients. Median time to onset was 10 days (range: 1 to 101) with 63/69 (91%) of cases developing by 30 days. Neurologic toxicities resolved in 72% (50/69) of patients with a median duration to resolution of 23 days (range: 1 to 544). Of patients developing neurotoxicity, 96% (66/69) also developed CRS. Subtypes of neurologic toxicities included ICANS in 13%, peripheral neuropathy in 7%, cranial nerve palsy in 7%, parkinsonism in 3%, and immune mediated myelitis in 0.4% of the patients.

Immune Effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS): Patients receiving CARVYKTI^® may experience fatal or life-threatening ICANS following treatment with CARVYKTI®, including before CRS onset, concurrently with CRS, after CRS resolution, or in the absence of CRS.

Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® in the CARTITUDE-1 & -4 studies, ICANS occurred in 13% (36/285), including Grade ≥3 in 2% (6/285) of the patients. Median time to onset of ICANS was 8 days (range: 1 to 28 days). ICANS resolved in 30 of 36 (83%) of patients, with a median time to resolution of 3 days (range: 1 to 143 days). Median duration of ICANS was 6 days (range: 1 to 1229 days) in all patients, including those with ongoing neurologic events at the time of death or data cutoff. Of patients with ICANS, 97% (35/36) had CRS. The onset of ICANS occurred during CRS in 69% of patients, before and after the onset of CRS in 14% of patients, respectively.

Immune Effector Cell-associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome occurred in 7% of patients in CARTITUDE-4 (0.5% Grade 3) and in 23% of patients in CARTITUDE-1 (3% Grade 3). The most frequent (≥2%) manifestations of ICANS included encephalopathy (12%), aphasia (4%), headache (3%), motor dysfunction (3%), ataxia (2%), and sleep disorder (2%).

Monitor patients at least daily for 7 days following CARVYKTI^® infusion for signs and symptoms of ICANS. Rule out other causes of ICANS symptoms. Monitor patients for signs or symptoms of ICANS for at least 2 weeks after infusion and treat promptly. Neurologic toxicity should be managed with supportive care and/or corticosteroids as needed. Advise patients to avoid driving for at least 2 weeks following infusion.

Parkinsonism: Neurologic toxicity with parkinsonism has been reported in clinical trials of CARVYKTI^®. Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® in the CARTITUDE-1 & -4 studies, parkinsonism occurred in 3% (8/285), including Grade ≥3 in 2% (5/285) of the patients. Median time to onset of parkinsonism was 56 days (range: 14 to 914 days). Parkinsonism resolved in 1 of 8 (13%) of patients with a median time to resolution of 523 days. Median duration of parkinsonism was 243.5 days (range: 62 to 720 days) in all patients, including those with ongoing neurologic events at the time of death or data cutoff. The onset of parkinsonism occurred after CRS for all patients and after ICANS for 6 patients.

Parkinsonism occurred in 1% of patients in CARTITUDE-4 (no Grade 3 to 4) and in 6% of patients in CARTITUDE-1 (4% Grade 3 to 4).

Manifestations of parkinsonism included movement disorders, cognitive impairment, and personality changes. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of parkinsonism that may be delayed in onset and managed with supportive care measures. There is limited efficacy information with medications used for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease for the improvement or resolution of parkinsonism symptoms following CARVYKTI^® treatment.

Guillain-Barré Syndrome: A fatal outcome following GBS occurred following treatment with CARVYKTI^® despite treatment with intravenous immunoglobulins. Symptoms reported include those consistent with Miller-Fisher variant of GBS, encephalopathy, motor weakness, speech disturbances, and polyradiculoneuritis.

Monitor for GBS. Evaluate patients presenting with peripheral neuropathy for GBS. Consider treatment of GBS with supportive care measures and in conjunction with immunoglobulins and plasma exchange, depending on severity of GBS.

Immune Mediated Myelitis: Grade 3 myelitis occurred 25 days following treatment with CARVYKTI^® in CARTITUDE-4 in a patient who received CARVYKTI^® as subsequent therapy. Symptoms reported included hypoesthesia of the lower extremities and the lower abdomen with impaired sphincter control. Symptoms improved with the use of corticosteroids and intravenous immune globulin. Myelitis was ongoing at the time of death from other cause.

Peripheral Neuropathy occurred following treatment with CARVYKTI^®. Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® in the CARTITUDE-1 & -4 studies, peripheral neuropathy occurred in 7% (21/285), including Grade ≥3 in 1% (3/285) of the patients. Median time to onset of peripheral neuropathy was 57 days (range: 1 to 914 days). Peripheral neuropathy resolved in 11 of 21 (52%) of patients with a median time to resolution of 58 days (range: 1 to 215 days). Median duration of peripheral neuropathy was 149.5 days (range: 1 to 692 days) in all patients, including those with ongoing neurologic events at the time of death or data cutoff.

Peripheral neuropathies occurred in 7% of patients in CARTITUDE-4 (0.5% Grade 3 to 4) and in 7% of patients in CARTITUDE-1 (2% Grade 3 to 4). Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of peripheral neuropathies. Patients who experience peripheral neuropathy may also experience cranial nerve palsies or GBS.

Cranial Nerve Palsies occurred following treatment with CARVYKTI^®. Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® in the CARTITUDE-1 & -4 studies, cranial nerve palsies occurred in 7% (19/285), including Grade ≥3 in 1% (1/285) of the patients. Median time to onset of cranial nerve palsies was 21 days (range: 17 to 101 days). Cranial nerve palsies resolved in 17 of 19 (89%) of patients with a median time to resolution of 66 days (range: 1 to 209 days). Median duration of cranial nerve palsies was 70 days (range: 1 to 262 days) in all patients, including those with ongoing neurologic events at the time of death or data cutoff. Cranial nerve palsies occurred in 9% of patients in CARTITUDE-4 (1% Grade 3 to 4) and in 3% of patients in CARTITUDE-1 (1% Grade 3 to 4).

The most frequent cranial nerve affected was the 7th cranial nerve. Additionally, cranial nerves III, V, and VI have been reported to be affected.

Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of cranial nerve palsies. Consider management with systemic corticosteroids, depending on the severity and progression of signs and symptoms.

HEMOPHAGOCYTIC LYMPHOHISTIOCYTOSIS (HLH)/MACROPHAGE ACTIVATION SYNDROME (MAS): Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® in the CARTITUDE-1 & -4 studies, HLH/MAS occurred in 1% (3/285) of patients. All events of HLH/MAS had onset within 99 days of receiving CARVYKTI^®, with a median onset of 10 days (range: 8 to 99 days), and all occurred in the setting of ongoing or worsening CRS. The manifestations of HLH/MAS included hyperferritinemia, hypotension, hypoxia with diffuse alveolar damage, coagulopathy and hemorrhage, cytopenia, and multi-organ dysfunction, including renal dysfunction and respiratory failure.

Patients who develop HLH/MAS have an increased risk of severe bleeding. Monitor hematologic parameters in patients with HLH/MAS and transfuse per institutional guidelines. Fatal cases of HLH/MAS occurred following treatment with CARVYKTI^®.

HLH is a life-threatening condition with a high mortality rate if not recognized and treated early. Treatment of HLH/MAS should be administered per institutional standards.

PROLONGED AND RECURRENT CYTOPENIAS: Patients may exhibit prolonged and recurrent cytopenias following lymphodepleting chemotherapy and CARVYKTI^® infusion.

Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® in the CARTITUDE-1 & -4 studies, Grade 3 or higher cytopenias not resolved by Day 30 following CARVYKTI^® infusion occurred in 62% (176/285) of the patients and included thrombocytopenia 33% (94/285), neutropenia 27% (76/285), lymphopenia 24% (67/285), and anemia 2% (6/285). After Day 60 following CARVYKTI^® infusion, 22%, 20%, 5%, and 6% of patients had a recurrence of Grade 3 or 4 lymphopenia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia, respectively, after initial recovery of their Grade 3 or 4 cytopenia. Seventy-seven percent (219/285) of patients had one, two, or three or more recurrences of Grade 3 or 4 cytopenias after initial recovery of Grade 3 or 4 cytopenia. Sixteen and 25 patients had Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, respectively, at the time of death.

Monitor blood counts prior to and after CARVYKTI^® infusion. Manage cytopenias with growth factors and blood product transfusion support according to local institutional guidelines.

INFECTIONS: CARVYKTI^® should not be administered to patients with active infection or inflammatory disorders. Severe, life-threatening, or fatal infections occurred in patients after CARVYKTI^® infusion.

Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® in the CARTITUDE-1 & -4 studies, infections occurred in 57% (163/285), including Grade ≥3 in 24% (69/285) of patients. Grade 3 or 4 infections with an unspecified pathogen occurred in 12%, viral infections in 6%, bacterial infections in 5%, and fungal infections in 1% of patients. Overall, 5% (13/285) of patients had Grade 5 infections, 2.5% of which were due to COVID-19. Patients treated with CARVYKTI^® had an increased rate of fatal COVID-19 infections compared to the standard therapy arm.

Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection before and after CARVYKTI^® infusion and treat patients appropriately. Administer prophylactic, pre-emptive, and/or therapeutic antimicrobials according to the standard institutional guidelines. Febrile neutropenia was observed in 5% of patients after CARVYKTI^® infusion and may be concurrent with CRS. In the event of febrile neutropenia, evaluate for infection and manage with broad-spectrum antibiotics, fluids, and other supportive care, as medically indicated. Counsel patients on the importance of prevention measures. Follow institutional guidelines for the vaccination and management of immunocompromised patients with COVID-19.

Viral Reactivation: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation, in some cases resulting in fulminant hepatitis, hepatic failure, and death, can occur in patients with hypogammaglobulinemia. Perform screening for Cytomegalovirus (CMV), HBV, hepatitis C virus (HCV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or any other infectious agents if clinically indicated in accordance with clinical guidelines before collection of cells for manufacturing. Consider antiviral therapy to prevent viral reactivation per local institutional guidelines/clinical practice.

Reactivation of John Cunningham (JC) virus, leading to progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), including cases with fatal outcomes, have been reported following treatment. Perform appropriate diagnostic evaluations in patients with neurological adverse events.

HYPOGAMMAGLOBULINEMIA: can occur in patients receiving treatment with CARVYKTI^®. Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® in the CARTITUDE-1 & -4 studies, hypogammaglobulinemia adverse event was reported in 36% (102/285) of patients; laboratory IgG levels fell below 500 mg/dL after infusion in 93% (265/285) of patients. Hypogammaglobulinemia either as an adverse reaction or laboratory IgG level below 500 mg/dL after infusion occurred in 94% (267/285) of patients treated. Fifty-six percent (161/285) of patients received intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) post CARVYKTI® for either an adverse reaction or prophylaxis.

Monitor immunoglobulin levels after treatment with CARVYKTI^® and administer IVIG for IgG <400 mg/dL. Manage per local institutional guidelines, including infection precautions and antibiotic or antiviral prophylaxis.

Use of Live Vaccines: The safety of immunization with live viral vaccines during or following CARVYKTI^® treatment has not been studied. Vaccination with live virus vaccines is not recommended for at least 6 weeks prior to the start of lymphodepleting chemotherapy, during CARVYKTI^® treatment, and until immune recovery following treatment with CARVYKTI^®.

HYPERSENSITIVITY REACTIONS occurred following treatment with CARVYKTI^®. Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® in the CARTITUDE-1 & -4 studies, hypersensitivity reactions occurred in 5% (13/285), all of which were ≤2 Grade. Manifestations of hypersensitivity reactions included flushing, chest discomfort, tachycardia, wheezing, tremor, burning sensation, non-cardiac chest pain, and pyrexia.

Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, may be due to the dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in CARVYKTI^®. Patients should be carefully monitored for 2 hours after infusion for signs and symptoms of severe reaction. Treat promptly and manage patients appropriately according to the severity of the hypersensitivity reaction.

IMMUNE EFFECTOR CELL-ASSOCIATED ENTERCOLITIS (IEC-EC) has occurred in patients treated with CARVYKTI^®. Manifestations include severe or prolonged diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss requiring parenteral nutrition. IEC-EC has been associated with fatal outcome from perforation or sepsis. Manage according to institutional guidelines, including referral to gastroenterology and infectious disease specialists.

In cases of refractory IEC-EC, consider additional workup to exclude alternative etiologies, including T-cell lymphoma of the GI tract, which has been reported in the post marketing setting.

SECONDARY MALIGNANCIES: Patients treated with CARVYKTI^® may develop secondary malignancies. Among patients receiving CARVYKTI^® in the CARTITUDE-1 & -4 studies, myeloid neoplasms occurred in 5% (13/285) of patients (9 cases of myelodysplastic syndrome, 3 cases of acute myeloid leukemia, and 1 case of myelodysplastic syndrome followed by acute myeloid leukemia). The median time to onset of myeloid neoplasms was 447 days (range: 56 to 870 days) after treatment with CARVYKTI^®. Ten of these 13 patients died following the development of myeloid neoplasms; 2 of the 13 cases of myeloid neoplasm occurred after initiation of subsequent antimyeloma therapy. Cases of myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia have also been reported in the post marketing setting. T-cell malignancies have occurred following treatment of hematologic malignancies with BCMA- and CD19-directed genetically modified autologous T-cell immunotherapies, including CARVYKTI^®. Mature T-cell malignancies, including CAR-positive tumors, may present as soon as weeks following infusions, and may include fatal outcomes.

Monitor lifelong for secondary malignancies. In the event that a secondary malignancy occurs, contact Janssen Biotech, Inc., at 1-800-526-7736 for reporting and to obtain instructions on collection of patient samples.

ABOUT CARVYKTI^® (CILTACABTAGENE AUTOLEUCEL; CILTA-CEL)

Ciltacabtagene autoleucel is a BCMA-directed, genetically modified autologous T-cell immunotherapy, which involves reprogramming a patient’s own T-cells with a transgene encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) that identifies and eliminates cells that express BCMA. The cilta-cel CAR protein features two BCMA-targeting single domain antibodies designed to confer high avidity against human BCMA. Upon binding to BCMA-expressing cells, the CAR promotes T-cell activation, expansion, and elimination of target cells.ⁱ

In December 2017, Legend Biotech entered into an exclusive worldwide license and collaboration agreement with Janssen Biotech, Inc. (Janssen), a Johnson & Johnson company, to develop and commercialize cilta-cel. In February 2022, cilta-cel was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) under the brand name CARVYKTI^® for the treatment of adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. In April 2024, cilta-cel was approved for the second-line treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory myeloma who have received at least one prior line of therapy, including a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent, and are refractory to lenalidomide.

In May 2022, the European Commission (EC) granted conditional marketing authorization of CARVYKTI^® for the treatment of adults with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. In September 2022, Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) approved CARVYKTI^®. Cilta-cel was granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation in the U.S. in December 2019 and in China in August 2020. In addition, cilta-cel received a PRIority MEdicines (PRIME) designation from the European Commission in April 2019. Cilta-cel also received Orphan Drug Designation from the U.S. FDA in February 2019, from the European Commission in February 2020, and from the Pharmaceuticals and Medicinal Devices Agency (PMDA) in Japan in June 2020. In March 2022, the European Medicines Agency’s Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products recommended by consensus that the orphan designation for cilta-cel be maintained on the basis of clinical data demonstrating improved and sustained complete response rates following treatment.

ABOUT CARTITUDE-4

CARTITUDE-4 (NCT04181827) is an ongoing, international, randomized, open-label Phase 3 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of cilta-cel versus pomalidomide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (PVd) or daratumumab, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone (DPd) in adult patients with relapsed and lenalidomide-refractory multiple myeloma who received one to three prior lines of therapy, including a PI and an IMiD.ⁱⁱ  

ABOUT CARTITUDE-1

CARTITUDE-1 (NCT03548207) is a Phase 1b/2, open-label, multicenter study evaluating the safety and efficacy of cilta-cel in adults with relapsed and/or refractory with multiple myeloma who have received at least 3 prior lines of therapy or are double refractory to a PI and IMiD, received a PI, an IMiD, and anti-CD38 antibody and documented disease progression within 12 months of starting the most recent therapy. The primary objective of the Phase 1b portion of the study was to characterize the safety and confirm the recommended Phase 2 dose of cilta-cel, informed by the first-in-human study with LCAR-B38M CAR-T cells (LEGEND-2). The Phase 2 portion further evaluated the efficacy of cilta-cel with overall response rate as the primary endpoint.ⁱⁱⁱ

ABOUT LUCAR-G39D

NCT06395870 is a Phase I, open-label clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of LUCAR-G39D, a dual-targeted cell preparation targeting CD19/CD20, in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.^iv

About MULTIPLE MYELOMA

Multiple myeloma is an incurable blood cancer that starts in the bone marrow and is characterized by an excessive proliferation of plasma cells.^v In 2024, it is estimated that more than 35,000 people will be diagnosed with multiple myeloma, and more than 12,000 people will die from the disease in the U.S.^vi While some patients with multiple myeloma initially have no symptoms, most patients are diagnosed due to symptoms that can include bone problems, low blood counts, calcium elevation, kidney problems, or infections.^vii

NeuroSigma Announces New Publication Showing Real-Time Effects of External Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation (eTNS) on Brain Activity




NeuroSigma Announces New Publication Showing Real-Time Effects of External Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation (eTNS) on Brain Activity

Peer-reviewed results of PET neuroimaging demonstrate rapid and profound changes to humans receiving eTNS

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NeuroSigma, Inc., a Los Angeles-based bioelectronics company, today announced a new publication in the journal Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface. The publication, titled “Oxygen-15 Labeled Positron Emission Tomography During External Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation,” is the first-ever to report the real-time effects on brain activity among humans receiving eTNS. The study was conducted by a team of researchers at UCLA including Dr. Christopher DeGiorgio, Professor and Vice Chairman of the UCLA Department of Neurology, and Dr. Ian Cook, Professor Emeritus in the UCLA Departments of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences and of Bioengineering.

“Publication of these results represents a significant milestone for eTNS as this therapeutic modality enters the mainstream,” said Dr. Cook. “An improved understanding of the eTNS mechanisms of action will allow clinicians to better tailor the treatment to individual patients and develop new therapeutic indications.”

The study included five adults, each receiving a series of six PET scans of their brain. PET is a neuroimaging technique that detects regional brain activity by measuring changes in cerebral blood flow. For all six scans, an eTNS device was applied to the test subject: three with eTNS turned on for 60 seconds, and three with eTNS turned off for 60 seconds. The data were then pooled and analyzed to look for significant differences in blood flow between the on and off scans. Results show a two-part mechanism of action where some brain regions exhibited increased activity while others showed decreased activity during eTNS.

“These findings increase our understanding of the mechanism of action of eTNS for multiple neurological and psychiatric disorders, including Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), depression and epilepsy. Activations of the medial frontal lobe and cingulate gyrus indicate a potential mechanism for the improvements in attention and mood reported in clinical trials and create a roadmap for future applications in cognitive and behavioral neuroscience,” added Dr. DeGiorgio. “In contrast, the areas of deactivation support a mechanism for the anti-seizure effect of eTNS because decreased brain activity was observed in regions typically associated with the spread of seizures.”

“Publication of these important findings is timely as NeuroSigma is preparing to launch the second-generation Monarch eTNS® System in the United States in early 2026,” said Dr. Colin Kealey, President and CEO of NeuroSigma. “The PET biomarker data generated by Dr. Cook and Dr. DeGiorigo complement previous EEG findings in children with ADHD and will help guide clinicians as they add the Monarch device to their clinical practice.”

NeuroSigma’s Monarch eTNS System is an FDA-cleared device for treatment of pediatric ADHD in the United States. Interested patients, physicians, and caregivers can visit www.monarch-etns.com to learn more.

About NeuroSigma

NeuroSigma is a Los Angeles, California-based bioelectronic medical device company developing technologies to transform medical practice and patients’ lives. The company’s lead product is the Monarch eTNS System, which is the first non-drug treatment for pediatric ADHD cleared by the FDA.

Legal Steroids for Bulking, Cutting, Strength from CrazyBulk: Best Selling Legal Steroid Alternatives for Muscle Growth and Bodybuilding in 2025




Legal Steroids for Bulking, Cutting, Strength from CrazyBulk: Best Selling Legal Steroid Alternatives for Muscle Growth and Bodybuilding in 2025

Crazy Bulk’s Introduces Best Legal Steroid Alternatives Safe and Most Popular Legal Steroids for Muscle Building and Cutting supplements in 2025. It Help to Boost testosterone, and improve muscle growth, strength, and repair.

NEW YORK, Nov. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

NEW YORK, Oct 31, 2025, Best Legal Steroids For Muscle Growth, Bulking, Cutting, Bodybuilding, and strength supplement for men launched by CrazyBulk in 2025, offering an alternative to Anabolic Steroids.

What are the best legal steroid alternatives for muscle gain and fat loss from CrazyBulk?

 In 2025, demand for legal, non-hormonal “steroid alternatives” is surging as bodybuilders, lifters, and competitive athletes chase measurable gains without gambling with health or eligibility.

Athletes know what anabolic steroids can do—but the trade-offs (health risks, failed tests, legal trouble) aren’t worth it. Hence, the pivot to modern, compliant alternatives built to support muscle growth, training intensity, recovery, and fat loss—within the rules.

CrazyBulk leads this space with targeted formulas for bulking and cutting—without the dangers tied to banned or misused anabolics.

1. CrazyBulk Bulking stack supplements: Add size and strength fast. D-Bal is the flagship legal alternative for rapid muscle gain.

     2. CrazyBulk Cutting Stack Supplements: Keep lean mass while dropping body fat to reveal definition. Anavar-style alternatives are the go-to for cutting and fat loss.

Different goals, different tools: some products emphasize protein synthesis and training output; others drive metabolism and muscle retention for a sharper, fuller look while cutting.

Run them in structured cycles, and pair with smart nutrition, programmed training, and adequate sleep—the difference between spinning your wheels and real progress.

Best Legal Steroid Alternatives in 2025: CrazyBulk’s Range.

Steroids have been a controversial topic in the world of bodybuilding for decades. Some people argue that they are essential for achieving optimal muscle growth and performance, while others believe there are too many risks and side effects.

The legality of steroids is also a major concern for many bodybuilders. In some countries, they are available over the counter, while in others, they are completely banned and considered illegal.

Fortunately, with the rise of online shopping, bodybuilders now have access to legal steroids from reputable sources. In this guide, we will explore where you can buy legal steroids online in 2024 and the important considerations to keep in mind before making a purchase.

The name Crazy Bulk is well-known in the bodybuilding industry. It’s an established company that’s been selling legal steroids online for a long time. The chances are that, if you are not familiar with Crazy Bulk, you will know somebody who is.

Visit the Official Website to view Crazy Bulk’s range of Best steroid alternatives 

Crazy Bulk offers a wide range of legal steroids that cater to different bodybuilding needs. It uses natural ingredients that work in synergy to enhance protein metabolism and provide additional benefits that set physical endurance and muscle growth into overdrive.

As with traditional anabolic steroids, some Crazy Bulk Legal Steroid Alternatives are more suitable for bulking, while others work better for cutting or enhancing physical performance.

One of the best things about the Crazy Bulk brand is the presence of a lengthy money-back guarantee. It applies to all the company’s products regardless of whether you buy them individually or as part of a stack.

The other nice thing is that if you order two legal steroids or legal steroid stacks, Crazy Bulk will ship you a third free of charge. It also offers free rapid shipping on all orders, large and small.

As with all Crazy Bulk Best Legal Steroid Alternatives, the above three options are manufactured to high-quality standards in an FDA-approved production facility based in the United States.

Dianabol (D-Bal)

Visit the Official Website. See DBal availability and pricing from CrazyBulk

Also known as Methandrostenolone, Dianabol is a popular anabolic steroid. It’s known for its ability to increase muscle mass and strength rapidly.

However, due to its many adverse effects, such as liver damage and hormonal imbalances, it has been banned in most countries. Easily the best legal Dianabol on the market, Crazy Bulk D-Bal is a Best Legal Steroid alternative that boasts a similar muscle-building potency without any side effects.

D-Bal works by improving nitrogen retention in the muscle tissues, which results in increased protein synthesis and, ultimately, muscles that are bigger and stronger. It also improves blood flow and oxygen delivery to the muscles, giving you greater endurance during workouts.

A legal steroid that gives that little bit more, D-Bal also tweaks metabolism to support total body fat reduction, and aids bone and tendon healing, helping make hard-worked bodies less susceptible to injuries.

Furthermore, unlike Dianabol and many other anabolic steroids, D-Bal doesn’t present cardiovascular risks by screwing up blood lipids. Going the opposite route, it supports a healthier cholesterol profile instead.

(Trenorol)

Visit the Official Website. See (Trenorol) availability and pricing from CrazyBulk 

One of the most popular bodybuilding steroids, Trenorol Best Legal Steroid alternative for bulking. Although the muscle gains it provides can be dramatic, so can the side effects, which may include acne and oily skin at one end of the scale and liver damage and prostate cancer at the other.

With zero side effects and a similar muscle-building potency, Trenorol is the Crazy Bulk solution for bodybuilders and strength athletes who want the benefits of Trenorol without any health risks.

Trenorol works by increasing free testosterone levels to provide solid muscle gains without water retention, helping to provide a hard, well-defined, and muscular-looking physique.

Although it’s not a top choice for cutting cycles, Trenoral also supports decent levels of body fat reduction without loss of lean muscle mass.

Working on different levels, Crazy Bulk’s legal Trenorol improves nitrogen retention, helping to improve circulation and blood flow to the muscles. Combined with the lack of water retention, this ability has allowed Trenorol to become one of the best legal steroids for improving vascularity.

HGH (HGHx2)

Visit the Official Website. See legal HGH  Availability and pricing from CrazyBulk

Human Growth Hormone (HGH) plays a vital role in muscle growth and recovery. It’s often used by bodybuilders to push their limits and achieve a more muscular physique.

However, synthetic HGH is illegal without a prescription and can cause severe side effects, such as joint pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and increased risk of diabetes.

Crazy Bulk offers the perfect legal solution. It’s called HGHx2. This powerful supplement stimulates natural increases in HGH production without presenting the risk of adverse reactions.

Like testosterone, HGH is a highly anabolic hormone that plays a key role in muscle growth and repair. By boosting HGH production within the body, HGHx2 delivers significant improvements in muscle mass, improved muscle recovery and repair, and enhanced strength.

Crazy Bulk HGHx2 also boosts the body’s metabolic rate, increasing daily calorie expenditure, even during times of low activity. Although it’s not Crazy Bulk’s most potent fat burner and has far more value as a muscle growth enhancer, HGHx2 still supports improvements in lean muscle mass, muscle definition, and overall body composition.

Bulking Stack: Tren-Max and Testo-Max for Aggressive Mass and Strength

How We Selected the Best Legal Steroid Alternatives Brands

Finding the best legal steroids was no easy task. We had to search out all the most popular legal steroid options and then conduct a systematic review of each one.

We had to look at several factors. Some of the main ones were:

• Effectiveness: The most important factor was whether or not the natural steroids were effective in delivering results.
• Safety: The safety and lack of side effects were also crucial as we only wanted to recommend products that are safe to use.
• Ingredients: We made sure to check the ingredients list of each product to ensure that they were free from banned substances and any harmful additives.
• Customer Reviews: Finally, we took into account the feedback and reviews from customers who have used these legal steroids. This type of feedback always provides a better understanding of products’ effectiveness and safety.

Our selection process was thorough and detailed, ensuring that only the best legal steroids made it onto our list.

It didn’t take us long to realize that Crazy Bulk was the clear winner. Although we have only detailed three of the most popular options, without exception, all of its other legal steroid options are miles ahead of any similar supplements on the market.

However, although Crazy Bulk is ahead of the other brands, Brutal Force is only a few steps behind so we had to give credit where credit is due.

Furthermore, in addition to all the points we have mentioned above, by providing the option to get free bottles of legal steroids and offering money-back guarantees, both brands ensure their customers get maximum satisfaction and value for money.

The Cutting Steroid Stack: for Definition and Performance

Visit the Official Website to See CrazyBulk Cutting Stack Supplements

Legal steroids are a great choice for anyone who wants to enhance their athletic performance, build muscle mass quickly, increase their strength, or improve their overall physical appearance.

However, it’s important to understand that no steroid, legal or otherwise, will work miracles on its own.

To see significant results from steroids, you need to maintain a strict workout regimen and a healthy diet. Anabolic steroids or their legal counterparts only enhance the efforts athletes are making. They are not a substitute for healthy living and appropriate training.

The bottom line is that if you want to see fruits for your labor, you will need to work hard. By boosting energy levels and supporting improvements in stamina, steroids can certainly help you to make the most of your time in the gym, keep adding extra weight to the bar, and reap much better results. However, it’s up to you to make sure you turn up regularly and train.

1. Can I legally buy steroids online for bodybuilding purposes?

Yes, but only if you have a prescription from a licensed healthcare provider. Anabolic steroids are controlled substances in many countries, including the United States, and can only be legally obtained with a prescription due to their potential for abuse and serious health risks.

2. What should I consider when looking for a legal source to buy steroids online?

Always ensure that the online pharmacy or source is legitimate and that it requires prescriptions for anabolic steroid purchases. Check for certification from relevant pharmaceutical regulatory bodies or verifications like the VIPPS (Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Sites) accreditation in the U.S.

3. Are there safe and legal alternatives to anabolic steroids for bodybuilding?

Yes, there are legal supplements that are marketed as safer alternatives to anabolic steroids. These products typically contain natural ingredients designed to enhance muscle growth and performance without the legal and health risks associated with steroids. Always research these products thoroughly before purchasing.

4. How can I verify if an online steroid source is legal and safe?

Check the website for clear contact information, licensing details, and a requirement for a prescription. Additionally, look for customer reviews, third-party testing, and quality assurance measures. Be wary of sites selling steroids without prescriptions or those making unrealistic claims.

5. What are the risks of buying steroids from an illegitimate online source?

Purchasing steroids from unverified sources can lead to serious legal consequences and health risks. These can include receiving counterfeit or tainted products, experiencing dangerous side effects, facing fines or imprisonment for possession of a controlled substance, and having personal information compromised. Always choose safety and legality over convenience or promises of fast results.

Do legal steroids require post-cycle therapy?

No, legal steroids do not require post-cycle therapy (PCT) because they do not suppress testosterone or disrupt natural hormone production. When you stop taking them, there is no need to worry about any form of follow-up treatment.

What’s the best legal steroid cycle?

The research scientists responsible for creating the steroids distributed by the two leading brands suggest a cycle length of at least 8 weeks. However, longer cycles are permissible because Crazy Bulk and Brutal Force steroids do not have any known side effects.

Many users choose to follow 12-week cycles. It’s hard to fault the logic of this because, when you order enough legal steroids to last for two months, you receive enough to last for three.

How long before I see results of using steroids?

Although some people respond to legal steroids better than other people do, most users notice notable increases in training capacity and muscular strength within their first week of treatment and look visually bigger and more defined by the time they finish their first bottle.

Why CrazyBulk Leads the Legal Steroid Market in 2025

CrazyBulk continues to lead because its supplements are built around how serious athletes actually train in real life.

DBal is the flagship among CrazyBulk’s legal steroid-style options for size, driving noticeable muscle gain during focused mass phases.

The Bulking Stack—Tren-Max plus Testo-Max alongside DBal—works in harmony: nutrient utilization, speed of recovery, and, most importantly, training intensity-often translated into significant jumps in size and strength compared to earlier cycles.

When it comes to cutting, Anvarol is outstanding because it helps you to hang on to lean muscle and performance, so you can uncover definition without losing strength.

Another advantage is structure: CrazyBulk’s legal steroids are easy to schedule. Standard eight-week blocks slide neatly into off-season bulks and pre-event cuts.

To the athletes who wish to purchase legal bodybuilding supplements that will cater to their training calendar and pass the testing standards, CrazyBulk’s legal steroids pave the way for rapid growth and definition without the risks of banned steroids or traditional anabolic steroids.

Standout strengths:

Legal steroid alternatives designed to support specific phases—bulk or cut.

DBal for mass; Anvarol for cuts; Tren + Testo-Max for amplified results.

A roadmap that integrates with training, nutrition, and recovery across the year.Conclusion:

Final Thought: CrazyBulk Legal Steroid Alternatives – Build Big, Cut Clean, Stay Compliant

The modern athlete seeks success without resorting to doping.

That’s where CrazyBulk’s legal steroid alternatives come in: to drive muscle growth, protect performance, and avoid the risk of banned substances.

If your aim is mass and strength, then DBal is the reliable starting point.

For when you’re ready to push further, the Bulking Stack—DBal combined with Tren-Max and Testo-Max—creates an orchestrated surge that supports increased muscle growth and higher-quality, effective training sessions.

When it’s time to lean out and show detail, Anvarol leads the cut, supports lean muscle retention, and helps bring out shape and definition.

Combined, these legal steroids are the core muscle-building supplements many athletes use to go from off-season building to pre-season refining and stay sharp year-round.

Plan your cycles, match them with disciplined training and nutrition, and treat recovery like part of the program—because it is.

With the right legal steroid stack and clear periodized approach, you can add muscle in the bulk phase, hold muscle in the cut phase, and bring your best look at the right time—without crossing into banned performance enhancers or traditional anabolic steroids.

Welcome to the era of legal steroids. The question is: will you build, cut, and finish on your terms?

Zelluna ASA – Contemplates private placement




Zelluna ASA – Contemplates private placement

Zelluna ASA – Contemplates private placement of NOK 50-55 million and retail offering to advance into first-in-human trial of its “off-the-shelf” TCR-NK therapy

NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN AUSTRALIA, CANADA, THE HONG KONG SPECIAL ADMINISTRATIVE REGION OF THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA, SOUTH AFRICA, NEW ZEALAND, JAPAN OR THE UNITED STATES, OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH SUCH RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION WOULD BE UNLAWFUL

Oslo, 3 November 2025: Zelluna ASA (“Zelluna” or the “Company”), a company pioneering allogeneic ‘off the shelf’ T Cell Receptor based Natural Killer (TCR-NK) cells for the treatment of cancer contemplates a private placement of NOK 50-55 million in gross proceeds and a retail offering of new shares through PrimaryBid raising gross proceeds of up to the NOK equivalent of EUR 1 million to initiate a phase I clinical trial of the Company’s lead asset, ZI-MA4-1 and generate patient data in mid 2026. The proceeds could bring meaningful impact for late-stage cancer patients amid growing industry appetite for accessible, ‘off-the-shelf’ cell therapies and enable the reach to a significant value inflection for the company.

The net proceeds from the Private Placement and the PrimaryBid Offering will be used to initiate a Phase I clinical trial with ZI-MA4-1 and generate initial patient data, develop the pipeline and for general corporate purposes.

Existing shareholders and primary insiders of the Company (the “Pre-Committing Shareholders”) have pre-committed to subscribe for and will be allocated Offer Shares in the Private Placement for NOK 50.7 million.

Overview of pre-commitments:

• Oxford Investors (a group of international private investors with strong track-record within the Life Science industry) for NOK 24.8 million;
• Sundt AS / Helene Sundt AB for NOK 10 million;
• Gjelsten Holding AS for NOK 5 million;
• MP Pensjon PK for NOK 5 million;
• Norda ASA for NOK 2 million;
• Ro Invest AS for NOK 1.5 million;
• Management for NOK 1.2 million;
  • Whereof Namir Hassan (CEO) for NOK 0.5 million;
• Members of the Board of Directors for NOK 1.2 million; and
  • Whereof Anders Tuv (Chair of the Board) for NOK 0.2 million

The Private Placement will entail the issuance of new shares at an offer price of NOK 10 per share (the “Private Placement”). The Company has engaged DNB Carnegie, a part of DNB Bank ASA as sole bookrunner (the “Manager”) to advise on and effect the contemplated Private Placement. The PrimaryBid Offering of new shares (together with the new shares in the Private Placement, the “Offer Shares”) of up to the NOK equivalent of EUR 1 million will be directed towards retail investors in Norway. The offer price in the Private Placement and the PrimaryBid Offering is NOK 10 per Offer Share.

The Private Placement

The bookbuilding period for the Private Placement will commence today, 3 November 2025 at 16:30 (CET) and close on 4 November 2025 at 08:00 (CET). The Company and the Manager may, however, at their sole discretion, resolve to extend or shorten the application period at any time and for any reason on short or without notice. If the application period is extended or shortened, the other dates referred to herein may be amended accordingly.

The Private Placement will be directed towards investors subject to and in compliance with applicable exemptions from relevant prospectus, filing and other registration requirements. The minimum application and allocation amount in the Private Placement has been set to the NOK equivalent of EUR 100,000. The Company may, however, at its sole discretion, allocate an amount below EUR 100,000 to the extent applicable exemptions from the prospectus requirement pursuant to the Norwegian Securities Trading Act and ancillary regulations (including Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2017) are available. The Company will direct a separate tranche of the Private Placement, without a minimum application and allocation amount, towards board members and employees, subject to applicable exemptions from the applicable prospectus requirements.

Allocation of Offer Shares will be determined by the Board, at its sole discretion, in consultation with the Manager, following the expiry of the application period. The Offer Shares in the Private Placement are expected to be settled in two separate tranches (“Tranche 1” and “Tranche 2”), as described below.

Settlement of Offer Shares in Tranche 1 to investors other than the Pre-Committing Shareholders is expected to take place on or about 6 November 2025 on a delivery-versus-payment (DVP) basis by delivery of existing and unencumbered shares in the Company that are already listed on Euronext Oslo Børs, pursuant to a share lending agreement (the “Share Lending Agreement”) expected to be entered into between the Company, the Manager and Radforsk. The Offer Shares allocated to the investors in Tranche 1 of the Private Placement other than the Pre-Committing Shareholders will thus be tradable upon allocation. The share loan under the Share Lending Agreement will be settled with new shares in the Company to be issued by the Company’s Board of Directors (for Tranche 1) pursuant to an authorization granted by the general meeting of the Company held on 29 April 2025 (the “Board Authorization”). Settlement of the Offer Shares allocated to the Pre-Committing Shareholders in Tranche 1 will not be made on DVP-basis. The payment date for such Offer Shares is expected on or about 6 November 2025. Delivery of such Offer Shares will occur following registration of the share capital increase pertaining to such Offer Shares in the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises (the “NRBE”), expected on or about 10 November 2025.

The payment date for Offer Shares in Tranche 2 is expected to be on or about 27 November 2025, and the delivery date for such Offer Shares is expected to be on or about 2 December 2025 (subject to the share capital increase pertaining to the issuance of such Offer Shares having been registered with the NRBE). The Offer Shares in Tranche 2 and part of the Offer Shares in Tranche 1 to be delivered to Pre-Committing Shareholders and/or Radforsk (as settlement of the share loan described above) will initially be delivered on a separate non-listed ISIN pending approval and publication of a listing prospectus, and the new shares to be issued in Tranche 2 and such part of the Offer Shares to be issued in Tranche 1 will thus not be listed or tradable on Euronext Oslo Børs until such prospectus has been published. Further the issuance of the Offer Shares in Tranche 2 is subject to approval by an extraordinary general meeting of the Company expected to be held on or about 25 November 2025 (the “EGM“). All investors in the Private Placement will receive Offer Shares in Tranche 1, except for the Pre-Committing Shareholders who will receive Offer Shares in Tranche 1 and Tranche 2.

Completion of the Private Placement is subject to all necessary corporate resolutions of the Company required to implement the Private Placement being validly made by the Company, including, without limitation, the Board resolving to complete the Private Placement, at its sole discretion, including to issue the Offer Shares in Tranche 1 of the Private Placement pursuant to the Board Authorization. Delivery of Offer Shares in Tranche 1 to investors other than the Pre-Committing Shareholders is subject to the Share Lending Agreement being entered into and remaining unmodified and in full force and effect. Delivery of Offer Shares in Tranche 1 to the Pre-Committing Shareholders is subject to the share capital increase pertaining to the issuance of the Offer Shares in Tranche 1 being registered with the NRBE. Completion of Tranche 2 of the Private Placement is further subject to (i) completion of Tranche 1; (ii) the EGM of the Company resolving to issue the Offer Shares in Tranche 2; and (iii) the share capital increase pertaining to the issuance of the Offer Shares in Tranche 2 being registered with the NRBE.

Tranche 1 of the Private Placement is not conditional upon Tranche 2, and an application for Offer Shares in Tranche 1 will be binding and may not be revoked if Tranche 2, for whatever reason, is not completed. Further, the Private Placement is not conditional on completion of the PrimaryBid Offering.

The Company reserves the right to, at any time and for any reason prior to notification of allocation, to cancel the Private Placement and/or to modify the terms of the Private Placement. Neither the Company nor the Manager will be liable for any losses incurred by applicants if the Private Placement is cancelled, irrespective of the reason for such cancellation.

The Private Placement and PrimaryBid Offering represent a deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive right to subscribe for and be allocated Offer Shares. The Board has considered the Private Placement and the PrimaryBid Offering in light of the equal treatment obligations under the Norwegian Public Limited Companies Act, and deems that the proposed Private Placement and PrimaryBid Offering is in compliance with these obligations. The Board is of the view that it will be in the common interest of the Company and its shareholders to raise equity through a private placement. By structuring the equity raise as a private placement, the Company expects to raise equity efficiently, with a lower discount to the current trading price, at a lower cost and with a significantly reduced completion risk compared to a rights issue. Furthermore, by including the PrimaryBid Offering, the Company makes the offering more accessible to all of its existing shareholders. In summary, the Company expects to be in a position to complete the contemplated equity issue in today’s market conditions in an efficient manner, at a higher subscription price and at significantly lower cost and with a lower completion risk than would have been the case for a rights issue.

The Company may, subject to completion of the Private Placement and certain other conditions, and depending on the participation of the Company’s existing shareholders in the Private Placement and the PrimaryBid Offering, consider a subsequent repair offering of new shares at the same subscription price as in the Private Placement and the PrimaryBid Offering, and otherwise in line with market practice.

The PrimaryBid Offering

The PrimaryBid Offering comprises a retail offer of up to the NOK equivalent of EUR 1 million to the public in Norway, subject to an exemption being available from prospectus requirements and any other filing or registration requirements and subject to other selling restrictions.

Key highlights and details for the PrimaryBid Offering are as follows:

• Price per Offer Share: NOK 10  
• Application period: From 3 November 2025 at 16:30 (CET) to 3 November 2025 at 21:00 (CET).
• No minimum order size.
• Available for investors in Norway.
• Applications can only be submitted through Nordnet’s website from the start to the end of the application period.

Avalyn to Participate in Multiple Upcoming Investor Conferences in November




Avalyn to Participate in Multiple Upcoming Investor Conferences in November

BOSTON, Nov. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Avalyn Pharma Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of inhaled therapies for the treatment of life-threatening pulmonary diseases, today announced that management will participate in the following upcoming investor conferences in November.

About Avalyn Pharma
Avalyn is reimagining the future of pulmonary fibrosis treatment with a pipeline of new inhaled formulations of approved medicines intended to reduce systemic exposure and deliver medication directly to the site of disease. Pulmonary fibrosis is characterized by scarring of lung tissue, decline in lung function, and reduced exercise capacity and quality of life, and is associated with increased mortality. Currently approved therapeutic options slow pulmonary fibrosis progression but are associated with significant toxicities that restrict their use and dosing. Avalyn’s inhaled approach tackles the underlying pathophysiology of pulmonary fibrosis at its source and is designed to reduce systemic exposure and deliver medication directly to the site of disease. Avalyn’s AP01 is an optimized inhaled formulation of pirfenidone, currently being studied in the ongoing MIST Phase 2b study in progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF). AP01 has been assessed in over 150 individuals with different forms of pulmonary fibrosis and demonstrated clinical proof-of-concept with promising signals of efficacy and safety compared to historical data with existing therapies, supporting continued clinical development. The company completed two Phase 1 studies for AP02, inhaled nintedanib, for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and is planning a Phase 2 clinical trial.
