Telomir Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: TELO) Featured In Local ABC Exclusive Showing Positive Outcomes Of Proposed Age Reversal Pill In Dogs

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Turning back the clock on aging is a never-ending quest with people, large companies and startups pouring blood, sweat, tears – and tons of money – into finding a solution. One company that seems to be getting closer to its goal is Telomir Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: TELO), a pre-clinical pharma company seeking to lead developments in longevity science through treating age-related conditions. Its leading drug compound, Telomir-1, was featured in an ABC television news segment highlighting promising "age reversal" outcomes in a study with two senior dogs. Lengthening DNA’s Protective Caps Telomir-1, the company's leading drug compound, is designed to regenerate telomeres – the protective DNA structures at the ends of our chromosomes, often compared to the caps on shoelaces. Research has demonstrated that repairing these telomeres may extend biological age and reverse certain age-related conditions. By targeting telomere regeneration, Telomir-1 aims to slow down the aging process and combat diseases linked to telomere shortening. Telomir Pharmaceuticals says Telomir-1 is the first novel small molecule to lengthen the DNA’s protective telomere caps to potentially reverse age-related conditions. The novel molecule, which Telomir is testing with mice and dogs with an eye toward human clinical trials, binds to critical metals that wear down telomeres. By limiting the availability of metals and interrupting the enzyme function, Telomir-1 seeks to restore cellular metal homeostasis and reverse a person's or animal’s biological age. The oral therapy potentially provides what the company says is a safe and effective alternative to existing treatments with minimal side effects. Telomir-1 Gets Props In News Segment In the segment, "ABC7 Exclusive: New study reveals promising results for age reversal pill on dogs," the potential of Telomir-1 was on display through the stories of Zeus and Benson, two senior dogs from Donte's Den rescue organization in Myakka City, Florida. After being treated with Telomir-1, both dogs exhibited improvements in their health conditions, according to Telomir. Zeus, a 12-year-old German Shepherd, showed complete remission of terminal cancer, while Benson, a 12-year-old Newfoundland suffering from severe arthritis, regained his mobility, leading to what caretakers described as a miraculous recovery, reports Telomir. "The results of this study highlight the groundbreaking potential of Telomir-1. Our priority is to advance the rigorous scientific research required to bring this promising treatment to humans and pets through the regulatory process as swiftly and safely as possible," said Erez Aminov, CEO of Telomir. "At Telomir, we are dedicated to transforming the future of longevity science, and these early findings bring us one step closer to making that vision a reality." Aminov was named CEO earlier this month after the passing of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer Christopher Chapman, Jr., M.D. Aminov was most recently CEO of MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: MIRA). The positive preclinical trials have shown that Telomir-1 may have several applications in the veterinary market, which is large given that Americans are poised to spend $156 billion on their pets by the end of this year. The use of Telomir-1 in the two dogs was observed by Telomir's special advisor Dr. Michael Roizen, the former Chief Wellness Officer of the Cleveland Clinic and a leader in age-related medicine. In this small compassionate use program, remarkable improvements in the health and vitality of the dogs after treatment with Telomir-1 were noted, offering a glimpse into the potential future applications for humans, reported Telomir. "The preliminary results we're seeing with Telomir-1 are very encouraging. By lengthening telomeres, we believe Telomir-1 can promote cell regeneration and potentially reverse several aspects of aging or age-related conditions. I'm excited to continue working with Telomir to explore the full potential of this innovative therapy,” Roizen said. More Tests Underway Nobody wants to get old and that includes pets. With Americans pouring tons of money into keeping their pooches happy and healthy, they may someday have another tool: Telmoir-1. With encouraging results out of its study with two dogs and more positive results expected down the road, this may be a company worth paying attention to as the quest to reverse time continues.

Mainz Biomed (NASDAQ: MYNZ) And Liquid Biosciences Team Up To Fight Pancreatic Cancer With Early Detection Tool

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Mainz Biomed N.V. (NASDAQ: MYNZ), a molecular genetics diagnostic company specializing in the early detection of cancer, has inked a collaboration deal with Liquid Biosciences, an AI-focused bio-analytics company, to potentially add pancreatic cancer detection to its colorectal cancer screening test ColoAlert®. Liquid Biosciences leverages its EMERGE AI analysis technology platform to help biopharma companies, diagnostics industries and academic institutions identify effective drugs and therapies. Mainz Biomed is developing PancAlert, a screening test that combines genetic and potentially microbiome biomarkers to detect pancreatic cancer. Research has shown that the microbiome – the mix of bacteria in the gut – plays a big role in how tumors develop and progress. The constitution of the microbiome can potentially hurt the immune system’s ability to recognize and attack cancer and render drugs less effective. By combining DNA and microbiome biomarkers, Mainz is betting early detection of pancreatic cancer is possible. Promising Early Results In the initial phase of the collaboration, the companies evaluated biomarkers from Mainz’s research program, co-funded by the German government, by applying a single algorithm developed by Liquid Biosciences using its EMERGE platform. Mainz said the results of the feasibility analysis were promising, giving both companies confidence that PancAlert could be added to ColoAlert in the future. ColoAlert is an early detection screening that spots bleeding and non-bleeding tumors through tumor DNA analysis, offering what the company says is a better early detection than fecal occult blood tests. In the second phase of the collaboration, Mainz and Liquid Biosciences will expand the biomarker evaluation to include microbiome biomarkers Mainz evaluated in 2023 and an expansion of the algorithm. The companies are targeting to complete this analysis in the fourth quarter of 2024. “We are excited by the opportunity to collaborate with Liquid Biosciences on PancAlert, which is being developed for early-stage disease detection with the goal of being a first-in-class screening test for this deadly form of cancer,” said Guido Baechler, Chief Executive Officer of Mainz Biomed. “Liquid Biosciences is already a key partner in our Next Generation colorectal cancer screening test. Expanding our partnership will allow us to bring the power of AI to this critical problem.” Pancreatic Cancer Is Deadly And Growing Pancreatic cancer is a malignant neoplasm of the pancreas with one of the highest mortality rates of all major cancers. It is now the third-leading cause of cancer deaths, and by 2030 it is expected to grow to second place, surpassing colorectal cancer deaths. This year alone, about 66,440 Americans will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, a record for this deadly form of cancer. What’s more, about 51,750 Americans are expected to die from the disease this year. Among cancers, pancreatic disease is a tough one to treat. It’s a highly aggressive form of cancer that attacks the pancreas, an organ needed for digestion. With limited treatment options, the five-year survival rate is just 13%. It doesn’t help that most people are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in a late stage when it has already spread to other parts of the body. That’s particularly true with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), which is a type of pancreatic cancer that’s created from the cells that line the ducts of the pancreas. It's one of the most lethal forms of pancreatic cancer. Given the difficulty in treating pancreatic cancer and the increasing incidents, a lot of medical research is directed toward earlier detection and better treatments. As a result, the global pancreatic cancer market is projected to reach $7.4 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 13.7% over 2023-2032. Mainz’s collaboration with Liquid Biosciences is the latest in the company’s collaborations to bring its next-generation diagnostics technology to the masses. By combining biomarkers, Mainz is seeking to demonstrate a better and more effective way to spot deadly cancers that currently go undetected and untreated until it's too late.

What If Your Most Profitable Strategy Also Made the World a Better Place?

Fordham Gabelli

As the world grapples with complex challenges such as climate change, poverty, and human rights issues, organizations are uniquely positioned to drive positive change. A new study titled “Social Profit Orientation: Lessons from Organizations Committed to Building a Better World,” recently published in the Journal of Marketing, explores how companies can simultaneously generate profit and foster societal well-being. The research, conducted by a team of esteemed academics, including Leonard L. Berry (Texas A&M), Tracey S. Danaher (Monash University), Timothy Keiningham (St. John's University), Lerzan Aksoy (Fordham University), and Tor W. Andreassen (Norwegian School of Economics), examines the benefits of adopting a social profit orientation to benefit both the organization and society. This approach encourages organizations to invest resources purposefully to enhance the common good. The study, based on 62 in-depth executive interviews across 21 organizations worldwide, reveals the significant benefits of embracing a social profit orientation. These organizations develop new approaches and strategies that address critical problems, thereby driving business innovation and improving societal outcomes. What is Social Profit Orientation? Social Profit Orientation is an organization-wide perspective where organizations embrace in their core mission the creation of sustainable, positive social and environmental impacts on individuals, communities, and society at large. Organizations with this orientation proactively invest resources such as knowledge, infrastructure, labor, reputation, money, and time to enhance the common good, especially improving the well-being of people and safeguarding the health of the planet. It reflects a deliberate, conscious effort to address systemic social or environmental challenges, rather than being merely a by-product of making financial profits. Examples from the Study Oportun tackles financial exclusion by providing affordable credit to underserved communities, offering an alternative to payday lenders. With significant investments in technology, Oportun has successfully issued millions of loans, enabling its customers to avoid exorbitant interest rates and fees. CEO Raul Vazquez highlights their challenge: “50% of customers who come to us have no FICO [credit] score, and other folks we serve may have a score based on limited history.” Despite these obstacles, Oportun has managed to provide more than $18.2 billion in credit by year-end 2023, saving its customers $2.4 billion in interest and fees. Gundersen Health System (renamed Emplify Health) exemplifies how a holistic approach to sustainability can be woven into the fabric of an organization. Under the leadership of Dr. Jeff Thompson, Gundersen became the first U.S. health system to offset 100% of its fossil-fuel use with self-produced energy. Their initiatives include harnessing solar and wind power and transforming landfill biogas into electricity and heat. Dr. Thompson remarks, “We are not just a ‘fix-it’ shop. Our mindset was: how do we protect the environment so it is a part of how we work, how we live, and how we work with our communities.” By adopting a social profit orientation, organizations not only drive meaningful societal impact but also experience enhanced legitimacy, stronger stakeholder relationships, improved employee engagement, and increased innovation. These benefits contribute to long-term business success and sustainability. Best Practices for Building a Social Profit Orientation Align employee and organizational values to create a unified mission. Ensure organizational resources and governance structures maximize societal benefits. Inspire executive and board leadership to deeply commit to social profit goals. Make informed investment decisions that focus on initiatives with the greatest social impact. Measure and evaluate social impact rigorously to ensure meaningful contributions. Foster external partnerships and communicate purpose through compelling storytelling. “Organizations today are at a crossroads where they can choose to be mere profit-generating entities or become catalysts for global change. Our study shows that the most profitable strategy might also be the one that makes the world a better place. By embracing a social profit orientation, organizations can lead their sectors, drive innovation, and make significant societal impacts,” said Lerzan Aksoy, Dean at Fordham University’s Gabelli School of Business.

Helping Redefine Medicine: AJNA BioSciences’ Path For FDA-Approved Plant Medicines

Benzinga

By Anthony Termini, Benzinga AJNA Biosciences is currently raising funds to bring its natural solutions to market! Click here for details. Back in the 1960s, a British pharmacologist discovered that aspirin had an effect on blood platelets that could reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes. Unfortunately for patients, aspirin manufacturers couldn’t say that because of labeling requirements of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). While the FDA is a vital part of providing patients and consumers with safe products, there are also more archaic aspects of the administration. Despite the reality that botanical solutions have been around and trusted for thousands of years, botanical or natural drugs have long been excluded from FDA-approval. It was only in 2016 that the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research developed guidelines for new drug applications for botanicals. It described the process pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies should follow to get a botanical drug approved by the FDA. AJNA’s Mission To Bring Natural Options To Market AJNA BioSciences is among the biotech companies seeking FDA approval for its botanical product. The company is working to develop the world’s first FDA-approved full-spectrum cannabinoid drug and a robust pipeline of other plant medicines. However, the path to launching a new FDA-approved drug can be long. According to management consultants McKinsey & Company, it takes about 12 years to bring a drug to market. To optimize the process, McKinsey suggests that drug makers need to be nimble and agile. AJNA BioSciences CEO Joel Stanley points out that “the botanical category is so new that only four FDA-approved botanical drugs exist to date.” Ajna hopes to break the mold and eventually introduce many FDA-approved botanical drugs to the market. “AJNA BioSciences is the first biotech company to be working with botanicals under a DEA Schedule-1 license,” says Joel Stanley, the company’s CEO. This is a significant milestone for the company because FDA approval is a critical component of bringing new drugs to market. Federal law requires that a manufacturer show that the drugs they produce are safe and effective. Additionally, FDA approval helps inform the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, which is a critical step to getting a drug included on insurance reimbursement schedules. The company firmly believes in providing patients with a variety of options that are not only safe but affordable and available through insurance. Another one of AJNA’s goals is to make botanical drugs an accepted component of a physician’s and patient’s routine treatment options. Demand for botanical solutions has been increasing for years, and AJNA’s strategy is to follow the same blueprint as large pharmaceutical companies that bring new drugs to market. Herbal medicine products are not considered a distinct regulatory category in the U.S., unlike Europe or Canada. Instead, a botanical drug is defined by its intended use in the treatment cycle of disease – like all other medicinal drugs. However, until recently, strict regulatory policy blocked the development of prescription drugs made from plants – this has now changed. Obtaining FDA approval helps lead to greater physician advocacy. In other words, doctors have more tools at their disposal to help treat patients and are able to impact positive structural change to evolve treatment options. AJNA is committed to producing natural botanical drugs that have undergone rigorous laboratory and clinical scrutiny to demonstrate that they deliver “nature, backed by science.” Stanley says that this is part of why AJNA is “the first company to receive a plant variety protection patent for cannabis.” The company also understands that FDA approval will make more patients feel comfortable with trying a more unconventional approach to treatment; for patients who have only been exposed to synthetic drugs, botanical drugs may seem unfamiliar, but FDA approval minimizes those hesitations. How Investors Might Evaluate AJNA’s Business AJNA’s mission is to bring natural options to the pharmaceutical industry, and it is bringing a number of proprietary strengths to the proposition. The company reports that it enjoys a wide economic moat that serves as a barrier to potential competitors. Having already raised over $250,000 from a venture capital firm, the company is currently hosting a raise to help further its vision. AJNA has established rigorous research and development processes with a strong team behind it. Its research facilities are registered with the FDA, with scientists from Harvard Medical, Johns Hopkins and NYU. Stanley is also an experienced CEO who has taken a similar company public. Chief Medical Advisor Orrin Devinsky helped obtain the first FDA approval for a cannabis-derived drug. Furthermore, AJNA’s research team has successfully shepherded more than 500 drug applications through the FDA process. While the company is not looking to replace big pharma, it wants to offer patients more solutions. As Stanley points out, “By investing in AJNA, you’re helping to change the healthcare paradigm to include optionality that none of us have ever had. We come from nature, not a lab.” More information is available on the Wefunder website. Featured photo courtesy of AJNA BioSciences.
