Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) Driving Innovation in Photodynamic Therapy Potential in Oncology, Dermatology

One of the key advantages of photodynamic therapy is its selectivity. Soligenix is advancing HyBryte(TM), or SGX301, designed for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. The company has achieved an important safety milestone in its confirmatory phase 3 clinical trial of HyBryte for CTCL treatment. From lab research to clinical application, photodynamic therapy (“PDT”) is emerging as a powerful treatment approach that uses light and chemistry to selectively target diseased tissue. As this modality gains attention for its precision and safety profile, Soligenix (NASDAQ: SNGX) is developing light-activated therapies designed to treat cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (“CTCL”) and other inflammatory skin diseases using targeted photodynamic…

Why the Cost of Health Care in the US is Soaring

While people have been quick to blame health insurers for the skyrocketing cost of health care in the U.S., the reality of the situation is more nuanced, and other factors have played a much bigger role in driving up costs. We explore some of those less-reported drivers of the high cost of health care in the country. For example, the law caps the rates levied by medical facilities when treating patients on Medicare. However, private insurers aren’t constrained by these laws as they negotiate their rates directly with the health care facilities serving their clients. In order to be more appealing to patients on private insurance policies, hospitals are racing to upgrade…

New Photodynamic Therapy Offers Hope Against Brain Cancer

A planned preclinical study testing a light-activated therapy that helps to kill residual brain cancer cells after a patient has undergone surgery to remove a tumor has elicited excitement as it could provide a way forward in eliminating microscopic cancer tissue that surgeons are unable to see while surgically removing a cancerous tumor from the brain. During this therapy, a catheter is inserted into the void left after the visible tumor is surgically removed. This catheter glows once the laser is switched on. The resultant light activates a drug that kills any cancer cells left inside the surrounding brain tissues. The drug is contained inside the…

Novel Yeast Cell Platform Promises to Expedite the Development of Immunotherapies

Researchers have developed a technological platform that leverages yeast cells to test and understand new cancer treatments under development. The use of this platform promises to significantly reduce the costs and time needed in the drug development process. Traditionally, immunotherapy treatments required several months to be tested in the lab. With this new method, the testing period could be collapsed to just a matter of days or a few weeks. The findings of this research appeared in the Nature Communications journal and feature the technology dubbed yeast surface display. The system involves using modified yeast cells to behave and respond in a similar way to the behavior and responses of immune…

The Anti-Dilution Playbook: How Earth Science Tech Inc. (ETST) Rewrote the OTC Capital Structure Narrative

The company has issued zero common shares since October 2023, marking a decisive break from typical OTC dilution patterns. A multi-year share repurchase program has retired more than 20 million shares while authorized shares have been reduced by 60%. Earth Science Tech is funding operations and acquisitions through cash flow while legally restricting its future ability to dilute shareholders. In the microcap market, capital formation is often synonymous with dilution. Companies raise money by issuing new shares, frequently at the expense of long-term shareholders, creating a cycle where growth in operations does not translate into growth in per-share value. Against…

Improving the Odds: How LIXTE Biotechnology Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: LIXT) Is Working to Make Cancer Therapies More Effective

LIXTE’s lead compound, LB-100, targets PP2A, a central regulator of cancer cell survival and treatment resistance Clinical programs are designed to enhance existing immunotherapies and chemotherapies rather than replace them Multiple active trials across ovarian clear cell cancer, colon cancer, and soft tissue sarcoma support a platform approach Despite decades of progress in oncology, many cancers remain resistant to treatment, not because therapies are unavailable, but because tumor cells adapt. Immunotherapies and chemotherapies can produce meaningful responses, yet durability and consistency remain challenges, particularly in aggressive or rare cancer subtypes. Increasingly, research is shifting toward approaches that improve how well…

Policy Expert Offers Suggestions for Curbing US Health Care Costs

According to recent data, health expenditures in the U.S. reached $5.3 trillion in 2024. That figure equates to 18% of GDP, and is double what is spent on average in other developed countries. Americans are feeling the pinch, and an estimated 100 million individuals in the country have medical debt. This situation is unsustainable. While there is broad agreement that the health care system is in crisis, there are sharp divides on what solutions need to be implemented to fix the skyrocketing cost of health care in the U.S. Jordan Bruneau, the Great Lakes Policy Institute’s director, offers some recommendations that Americans themselves can implement without waiting for lawmakers and other…

Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) Builds Momentum in Fight Against Rare, Chronic Cancer

Although CTCL may progress slowly in its early stages, it remains a chronic and ultimately progressive disease for many patients. Front-line therapies for CTCL remain limited and fragmented. Soligenix is advancing a distinct approach to CTCL treatment through the development of HyBryte(TM), also known as SGX301 or synthetic hypericin. Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (“CTCL”) remains a cancer with limited treatment options, persistent symptoms and long-term quality-of-life challenges for patients, even decades after its classification as a distinct disease. Despite medical advances in oncology, many people living with CTCL continue to cycle through therapies that offer only partial relief or introduce new…
