Invisalign® Palatal Expander System by Align Technology Now Available in Malaysia for Skeletal and Dental Expansion in Growing Patients
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Align Technology, Inc. ('Align') (Nasdaq: ALGN) a leading global medical device company that designs, manufactures, and sells the Invisalign® System of clear aligners, iTero™ intraoral scanners, and exocad™ CAD/CAM software for digital orthodontics and restorative dentistry, today announced that Align's Invisalign Palatal Expander System* has been notified as Class B medical device by Malaysia Medical Device Authority and is now commercially available in Malaysia for broad patient applicability, including growing children, teens and adults (with surgery or other techniques). The Invisalign Palatal Expander System* is a modern and innovative direct 3D printed device based on proprietary and patented technology. Invisalign Palatal Expanders are intended for use in rapid expansion and subsequent holding of skeletal and/or dental narrow maxilla (upper jaw) with primary, mixed, or permanent dentition during treatment of patients. 'The Invisalign Palatal Expander System* exemplifies our commitment to advancing digital orthodontics with innovative solutions that enhance patient treatment experiences,' said David Carr, Align Technology executive vice president and managing director, Asia Pacific. 'We are excited to extend the availability of the transformative Invisalign Palatal Expander system, Align's first direct 3D printed orthodontic appliance, to even more doctors and their patients markets across the Asia Pacific region.' The Invisalign Palatal Expander System* consists of a series of removable devices staged in small increments of movement to expand a patient's narrow maxilla to a position determined by their treating doctor. Each direct 3D printed device is customized to the patient's unique anatomy based on an iTero™ intraoral digital scan. A palatal expansion treatment plan and device design are then developed using Align's proprietary AI-driven orthodontic software. Combined with Invisalign First™ aligners, Invisalign Palatal Expanders provide doctors with a full early intervention treatment solution for Phase 1 treatment, an early interceptive orthodontic treatment for young patients. Phase 1 treatment is traditionally done through arch expanders or partial metal braces, before all permanent teeth have erupted – typically at ages 6 through 10. Invisalign First clear aligners are designed specifically to address a broad range of younger patients' malocclusions, including shorter clinical crowns, management of erupting dentition, and predictable dental arch expansion. 'Phase 1 or early interceptive treatment accounts for 20 percent of orthodontic case starts each year and is growing,' said Dr. Mitra Derakhshan, Align Technology executive vice president, chief clinical officer, global treatment planning and clinical services. 'Together with Invisalign First aligners, Invisalign Palatal Expanders provide doctors with a solution set to treat the most common skeletal and dental malocclusions in growing children. The addition of mandibular advancement features to Invisalign aligners also provides doctors with more options for treating skeletal and dental jaw imbalances and bite correction for their growing patients during their teenage years.' The Invisalign Palatal Expander System* is available in Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore, Vietnam, Japan, Thailand, India and Malaysia. * Children shall not use device without supervision. About Align Technology, Inc. Align Technology designs and manufactures the Invisalign® System, iTero™ intraoral scanners and services, and exocad™ CAD/CAM software.

XORTX Completes Non-Brokered Private Placement of Units
Not For Distribution to United States News Wire Services or for Dissemination in the United States CALGARY, Alberta, July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — XORTX Therapeutics Inc. ('XORTX' or the 'Company') (NASDAQ: XRTX | TSXV: XRTX | Frankfurt: ANU), a late-stage clinical pharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative therapies to treat gout and progressive kidney disease, is pleased to announce the closing of its previously announced non-brokered private placement of units ('Units'), whereby it issued 1,267,123 Units at a price of US$0.73 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of US$925,000 pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions (the 'Offering'). Under the Offering, each Unit consisted of one common share in the capital of the Company ('Common Share') and one common share purchase warrant ('Warrant'). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one additional Common Share at a price of US$1.20 for a period of sixty (60) months following the date of issuance provided, however, that if the closing price of the Common Shares on the Nasdaq is greater than US$2.00 for ten (10) or more consecutive trading days, the Warrants will be accelerated and will expire on the 30th business day following the date of such notice. Closing of the Offering was approved by the TSX Venture Exchange ('TSXV'), and the securities issued under the Offering will not be subject to a four-month and one-day statutory hold period. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Offering as more specifically described in the Offering Document and for gout programs, general corporate and working capital purposes. In connection with the Offering, the Company paid an aggregate of $12,264 in finder's fees and issued, in aggregate, 16,800 finder's warrants. The securities have not and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 'U.S. Securities Act'), or any applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold to, or for the account or benefit of, persons in the United States or 'U.S. persons,' as such term is defined in Regulation S promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act, absent registration or an exemption from such registration requirements. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful. The issuance of 8,191 Units to an insider of the Company constitutes a 'related party transaction' as such term is defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions ('MI 61-101'). Pursuant to Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, the Company relied on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements, respectively, as neither the fair market value of the Units nor the consideration for such Units, insofar as it involves the insider, exceeds 25 percent of the Company's market capitalization. In other news, the non-brokered private placement that was announced on May 19, 2025 will not proceed. About XORTX Therapeutics Inc. XORTX is a pharmaceutical company with three clinically advanced products in development: 1) our lead program XRx-026 program for the treatment of gout; 2) XRx-008 program for ADPKD; and 3) XRx-101 for acute kidney and other acute organ injury associated with respiratory virus infections. In addition, the Company is developing XRx-225, a pre-clinical stage program for Type 2 diabetic nephropathy. XORTX is working to advance products that target aberrant purine metabolism and xanthine oxidase to decrease or inhibit production of uric acid.
