Recent news for Moleculin has focused on clinical progress and investor communications. On Jan 12–13, 2026, the company highlighted accelerated 2026–2028 milestones and independent confirmation of no cardiotoxicity in 90 subjects on Annamycin, both with positive price reactions. A positive Phase 1 WP1066 pediatric brain tumor update on Dec 17, 2025 saw a sharp decline of 11.73%, underscoring volatile reactions even to favorable data.

Regulatory & Risk Context
The company has an active S-3 shelf registration dated 2025-09-19 that remains in effect through 2028-09-19. The filing is not yet effective and there is no recorded usage, so no takedowns have been disclosed under this shelf in the provided data.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement introduces a CEO Corner platform aimed at giving investors deeper context on corporate developments, clinical progress, and strategy. It complements recent efforts such as new investor presentations and detailed clinical updates on Annamycin and WP1066. With MBRX trading below its $12.14 200‑day MA and well under the $91.2475 52‑week high, investors may focus on how effectively this channel clarifies trial milestones, regulatory steps, and capital-planning signals, including any future use of the existing S-3 shelf.

About Moleculin Biotech, Inc.
Moleculin Biotech, Inc. is a Phase 3 clinical stage pharmaceutical company advancing a pipeline of therapeutic candidates addressing hard-to-treat tumors and viruses. The Company’s lead program, Annamycin (also known as naxtarubicin), is a next-generation highly efficacious and well tolerated anthracycline designed to avoid multidrug resistance mechanisms and to lack the cardiotoxicity common with currently prescribed anthracyclines. Annamycin is currently in development for the treatment of relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and soft tissue sarcoma (STS) lung metastases.
The Company has begun the MIRACLE (Moleculin R/R AML AnnAraC Clinical Evaluation) Trial (MB-108), a pivotal, adaptive design Phase 3 trial evaluating Annamycin in combination with cytarabine, together referred to as AnnAraC (the combination of Annamycin and cytarabine, also referred to as “Ara-C”) and, for the treatment of relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Following a successful Phase 1B/2 study (MB-106), with input from the FDA, the Company believes it has substantially de-risked the development pathway towards a potential approval for Annamycin for the treatment of AML. This study remains subject to appropriate future filings with potential additional feedback from the FDA and their foreign equivalents.
Additionally, the Company is developing WP1066, an Immune/Transcription Modulator capable of inhibiting p-STAT3 and other oncogenic transcription factors while also stimulating a natural immune response, targeting brain tumors, pancreatic and other cancers. Moleculin also has in its pipeline a portfolio of antimetabolites, including WP1122 for the potential treatment of pathogenic viruses, as well as certain cancer indications.
