Primus Sounds Alarm on Chronic Venous Insufficiency as President Trump's Diagnosis Sparks National Focus
SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA / / July 24, 2025 / Following reports of President Donald J. Trump's diagnosis with Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI), Primus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. strongly calls on healthcare providers to intensify efforts to diagnose and treat this silent epidemic affecting 25-30 million Americans because only less than <10% are actually treated. Leg swelling, heaviness, and varicose veins are often dismissed as cosmetic or "normal aging," while they can signal a dangerous progression toward severe complications including thromboembolism (blood clots), debilitating pain, non-healing leg ulcers, and compromised mobility. Widespread, Under-Recognized Health Threat CVI, also known as chronic venous disease or venous reflux disease, impacts twice (2x) as many Americans as coronary heart disease, three times (3x) peripheral arterial disease, and 30 times (30x) the number of Americans who have a heart attack each year. According to CDC, up to 900,000 Americans are affected by venous thromboembolism annually, and 60,000 to 100,000 people die each year. Millions suffer daily challenges - standing, sitting, flying - due to blood pooling in the legs, worsened by inactivity or pressure. Traditional treatments - leg elevation, compression stockings or surgical procedures - are often cumbersome, uncomfortable, underutilized, and may be expensive with added health risks. Life-Changing Solution: Vasculera® Primus offers Vasculera, the only U.S. prescription product for CVI. It is specifically formulated as a medical food for the clinical dietary management of CVI. Taken once daily, this 600mg tablet delivers highly purified, bioavailable diosmin, a flavonoid sourced from oranges, in combination with a pH buffering agent and: Calms inflammation and oxidative stress Strengthens weakened vein walls Improves overall venous function Counters localized CVI blood acidosis Manufactured in the U.S., Vasculera presents a novel naturally-derived alternative to the status quo. Expert Physician Perspectives "CVI and its manifestation in skin known as stasis dermatitis is a very common condition that can lead to significant impairment and morbidity," said Dr. Mark Nestor, MD, PhD, Board-certified Dermatologist and Voluntary Professor, Department of Dermatology and Cutaneous Surgery, University of Miami, Miller School of Medicine. "Diosmin in its bioavailable form in the pharmaceutical-grade medical food Vasculera is a natural flavonoid that has scientifically proven benefit for this condition." Board-certified Vascular Surgeon Dr. Ron Bush, MD, FACS, one of the world's foremost experts in the histology and treatment of venous disease states, "CVI is a common condition, with symptoms that may vary but are consistently linked to elevated venous pressure. In my clinical experience, Vasculera has proven to be an effective treatment option. Its active ingredient, diosmin, is well-studied and widely documented for its ability to address the inflammation associated with chronic venous hypertension. Vasculera is also well-tolerated and has no significant contraindications." Robust Clinical Backing Over 60 published peer-reviewed clinical studies confirm diosmin's effectiveness in reducing leg pain, swelling, and skin deterioration associated with CVI. Vascular medicine experts recommend Vasculera's ultra-micronized diosmin as the only U.S. product for venous ulcers and CVI symptoms, both as standalone and adjunctive therapy in national treatment guidelines. Public Health Call to Action With an aging population and more time on electronic devices fueling CVI's prevalence, Primus urges clinicians to: Proactively screen all at-risk patients for CVI Integrate proven prescription metabolic therapies like Vasculera with CVI standards of care For prescribing information, visit About Primus Pharmaceuticals Primus innovates in prescription nutritional therapies targeting metabolic causes of chronic diseases across rheumatology, dermatology, and women's health.

Janux Therapeutics Highlights Pipeline Progress and Best-in-Class Potential of Novel Bispecific Platform for Autoimmune Diseases at Virtual R&D Day
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Janux Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: JANX) (Janux), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a broad pipeline of novel immunotherapies by applying its proprietary technologies to its Tumor Activated T Cell Engager (TRACTr), Tumor Activated Immunomodulator (TRACIr), and Adaptive Immune Response Modulator (ARM) platforms, will host its virtual R&D Day today at 1:30 PM PT. The event will highlight the company's continued momentum in advancing its novel immunotherapy platforms—TRACTr and TRACIr, as well as ARM—designed to address significant unmet needs in oncology and autoimmune diseases. 'At Janux, we are guided by a deep commitment to scientific excellence and a belief that innovation should translate into meaningful outcomes for patients,' said David Campbell, Ph.D., President and CEO of Janux Therapeutics. 'The progress we've shared today across our TRACTr, TRACIr, and ARM platforms reflects our disciplined strategy to focus first on maximizing the benefit and value of our clinical program JANX007, second to harness the value of our clinical experience by bringing forward TRACTrs where we can potentially be first- and/or best-in-class, and third to utilize our T cell engager development expertise to enable platform technologies that address other clear gaps in the treatment landscape.' Creating an Opportunity to Further Differentiate JANX007 with TRACIr Combination Janux is advancing its CD28-based TRACIr platform designed to enhance T cell activation and durability of its CD3-based TRACTr platform. TRACIr was built on the same technology with the same tumor-activation and PK design features as TRACTr and combines tumor targeting with immune costimulation. The TRACIr platform represents a strategic extension of Janux's tumor-activated approach, designed to complement and enhance the clinical potential of its TRACTr portfolio, beginning with PSMA-TRACTr JANX007. While JANX007 has already demonstrated differentiated clinical activity in late-stage metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients, the addition of a PSMAxCD28-TRACIr introduces a costimulatory signal that may further enhance durability of response within the tumor microenvironment. This combination has the potential to drive more prolonged anti-tumor effects without increasing systemic toxicity, positioning Janux to further differentiate JANX007 in the mCRPC treatment landscape. IND-enabling studies are underway for the PSMA-TRACIr, with clinical trials in combination with JANX007 expected to begin in the second half of 2026. Expanding the TRACTr Platform into High-Value Oncology Indications Building upon learnings from the JANX007 and JANX008 clinical programs, Janux introduced its latest trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2) TRACTr program. This next-generation TROP2-TRACTr was engineered for potential best-in-class safety and efficacy across a broad range of TROP2-expressing tumors, including breast, lung and bladder cancers. Janux's TROP2-TRACTr exemplifies the TRACTr technology's ability to create high-value T cell engager (TCE) product candidates directed at tumor targets that contemporary TCE technologies have been unable to access due to broad healthy tissue expression. Janux's TROP2-TRACTr product candidate demonstrated strong potency across multiple tumor types, activity at low TROP2 expression levels, and was well tolerated in non-human primates with no signs of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) or healthy tissue toxicity. This preclinical data also displayed the ability to overcome limitations of existing TROP2-targeted therapies, including antibody drug conjugates. These findings support a wide therapeutic window and the potential for best-in-class performance in TROP2-expressing solid tumors. IND-enabling activities are planned in the second half of 2025. ARM Platform Redefines T-Cell Engagers for Autoimmune Disease and Oncology Janux also introduced its Adaptive Immune Response Modulator (ARM) bispecific platform, designed to overcome the limitations of conventional TCEs in autoimmune diseases and oncology. Builds upon Janux's expertise to redesign bispecific TCEs. Differentiated non-clinical profile provides best-in-class opportunity in autoimmune diseases. Potential broad applicability across multiple disease areas. Large safety window and off-the-shelf format position it for higher dosing, rapid development and potential best-in-class performance. The lead program, a CD19-ARM, has displayed rapid, deep and durable B-cell depletion in periphery and tissues with a prolonged memory B cell reset while maintaining a large safety window in non-human primates, supporting a potential best-in-class profile. ARMs exhibit differentiated durable T cell activity with reduced T cell exhaustion preclinically. The program demonstrated prolonged memory B-cell depletion and immune reset from a single subcutaneous dose, reflecting the durability seen with CD19 CAR-T therapies but with greater safety and convenience. ARMs displayed potential to dose to maximum efficacy while enabling safer, outpatient-friendly dosing. In non-human primates, CD19-ARM achieved deep and durable B-cell depletion in both blood and lymphoid tissues with a >100x CRS safety window. The CD19-ARM is on track for first-in-human studies to begin in the first half of 2026.

Crossbow Therapeutics Nominates its Second Development Candidate, CBX-663, a Broadly Acting Therapeutic for a Wide Range of Solid and Hematologic Malignancies
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Crossbow Therapeutics, Inc., a biotechnology company developing T-Bolt™ therapies, a novel class of T-cell receptor (TCR)-mimetic antibody therapeutics, today announced the nomination of its second development candidate, CBX-663, for the treatment of a broad range of solid tumor and hematologic malignancies. The next-generation T-cell engager targets telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT), a protein that drives tumor growth and is expressed in up to 95% of cancers. 1,2 CBX-663, a bispecific antibody, binds to TERT-derived peptide human leukocyte antigen (pHLA) complexes on the surface of tumor cells and activates T-cells through a CD3-binding arm. The molecule includes two binding domains for TERT, which increase its ability to engage tumor cells and boost immune activation. 'CBX-663 illustrates how Crossbow's TCR-mimetic platform can unlock new opportunities for antibody-based cancer therapies,' said Briggs Morrison, MD, Chief Executive Officer of Crossbow. 'With strong preclinical performance selectively targeting a pHLA expressed across a broad range of cancers, CBX-663 has the potential to offer a meaningful new treatment option for patients with limited therapeutic options.' In preclinical studies, CBX-663 drove potent, antigen-specific tumor killing across multiple TERT-positive cancer models, with minimal activity against TERT-negative or HLA-mismatched cells. The candidate also demonstrated a favorable safety profile and pharmacokinetics comparable to conventional antibody therapies. Crossbow presented data summarizing the initial characterization of CBX-663 at the 2025 Annual Meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR). Although TERT resides inside the cell, HLA molecules can present fragments of the protein, known as peptides, on the tumor surface. CBX-663 recognizes one of those peptides, the HLA-A*02:01-restricted TERT540 peptide, and redirects T-cells to attack tumor cells. CBX-663 demonstrated broad cytotoxic activity in vitro in both solid and hematologic cancer cell lines, as well as in primary patient samples ex vivo. In vivo studies further confirmed its anti-tumor efficacy and tolerability. 'CBX-663 reflects the depth of antibody discovery and protein engineering that underpins our T-Bolt™ platform and our ability to generate highly selective, potent molecules against difficult cancer targets,' said Dmitri Wiederschain, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of Crossbow. 'Its performance in preclinical models reinforces the promise of TCR-mimetic therapeutics, and we're excited to continue advancing this program.' Crossbow discovered and developed CBX-663 through its proprietary T-Bolt™ platform, which uses optimized antibody libraries and precision screening to find high-affinity, specific binders to intracellular tumor antigens displayed as pHLA complexes. The nomination of CBX-663 underscores the platform's potential to deliver a scalable pipeline of T-cell engagers for difficult-to-treat cancers. About Crossbow Therapeutics, Inc. Crossbow Therapeutics, Inc., is a biotechnology company determined to improve the lives of people with cancer by unlocking the therapeutic potential of T-cell receptor (TCR)-mimetic antibodies. The company's T-Bolt™ therapies are next-generation, easily assembled immunotherapies directed with high precision at previously unreachable cancer cell targets. Crossbow's efficient and selective approach is designed to target the entire universe of cancer proteins, dramatically expanding the potential of antibody therapy to address many types of cancer.
