Qualigen Therapeutics Inc Stock Price, News & Analysis

Qualigen Therapeutics reported that it received a notification from Nasdaq regarding its failure to file the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2022, as mandated by Nasdaq Rules. The delay in the filing, due to additional information required for the company’s acquisition of a majority interest in NanoSynex, Ltd, resulted in the company filing a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25. While this notification does not immediately affect the Nasdaq listing, failure to regain compliance may lead to delisting. Qualigen is working to file the Form 10-K by June 20, 2023, which would help avoid submitting a formal compliance plan.

Qualigen Therapeutics (Nasdaq: QLGN) announced significant findings from its QN-302 program presented at the AACR Annual Meeting 2023. The data highlighted QN-302's potential as a treatment for pancreatic cancer, showing 10-fold greater potency compared to existing therapies like gemcitabine in resistant cell lines. Doctor Tariq Arshad stated that these results support their goal to submit an IND application to the FDA to initiate Phase 1 trials for QN-302. The research demonstrated that QN-302 targets the S100P gene, a promising biomarker for therapy tracking, and confirmed anti-tumor activity in various in vivo models.

QN-302 has already been granted Orphan Drug Designation by the FDA, underlining its potential as a novel treatment strategy against cancers characterized by G4 structures.

Qualigen Therapeutics (Nasdaq: QLGN) has presented promising in vivo efficacy data regarding its QN-247 program at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2023. This data suggests that QN-247 could serve as an effective nano-immunotherapy against triple negative breast cancer. The study showed significant reductions in tumor volumes without toxic side effects.

QN-247, a nucleolin-targeted oligonucleotide conjugate, demonstrates potential against various malignancies, including acute myeloid leukemia and glioblastoma. The company is actively seeking partners to advance the development of QN-247. Qualigen's broader portfolio includes diagnostics and other investigational compounds targeting different cancer types.

Qualigen Therapeutics announces the grant of U.S. Patent No. 11,560,380 for its lead oncology drug candidate, QN-302.

The company will present five posters, highlighting their lead program QN-302 and a study on QN-247 in Triple Negative Breast Cancer. Key presentations include a comparison of QN-302 and CX-5461, findings on S100P gene down-regulation, and anti-tumor activity of QN-302. QN-302 targets G-Quadruplex structures in various tumors, while QN-247 focuses on nucleolin-expressing cancers. Orphan Drug Designation for QN-302 in pancreatic cancer was granted in January 2023.
