Patients treated with Halneuron<sup>\u00ae <\/sup>demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in cancer-related pain in a previous Phase 2 clinical trial with an acceptable safety profile. Halneuron<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> has been evaluated in over 700 patients in a series of Phase 1 and Phase 2 studies and shows no signs of addiction potential.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cOur goal is to recruit 100 patients with CINP by the fourth quarter of 2025, which should allow us to execute an interim analysis on the HALT-CINP trial in the fourth quarter of 2025,\u201d commented R. Michael Gendreau, M.D., Ph.D., Dogwood\u2019s Chief Medical Officer. \u201cThis proposed interim analysis will inform our adaptive trial design, enabling changes to the study, if necessary, to improve trial outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Dogwood Therapeutics <\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Dogwood Therapeutics (Nasdaq: DWTX) is a development-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing new medicines to treat pain and fatigue-related disorders. The Dogwood research pipeline includes two separate mechanistic platforms with a non-opioid analgesic program and an antiviral program. The proprietary, non-opioid, Na<sub>V<\/sub> 1.7 analgesic program is centered on our lead development candidate, Halneuron<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> which is a highly specific voltage-gated sodium channel modulator, a mechanism known to be effective for reducing pain transmission. In clinical studies, Halneuron<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> treatment has demonstrated pain reduction in pain related to general cancer and in pain related to chronic CINP. Interim data from the forthcoming Phase 2 CINP study are expected in the second half of 2025.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Dogwood\u2019s antiviral program includes IMC-1 and IMC-2, which are novel, proprietary, fixed-dose combinations of anti-herpes antivirals and the anti-inflammatory agent celecoxib. These combination antiviral approaches are being applied to the treatment of illnesses believed to be related to reactivation of previously dormant herpesviruses, including fibromyalgia (\u201cFM\u201d) and Long-COVID (\u201cLC\u201d). IMC-1 is poised to progress into Phase 3 development as a treatment for FM and is the focus of external partnership activities. IMC-2 has been assessed in both active control and double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials and, in both cases, demonstrated successful reduction of the fatigue associated with LC. The company has reached an agreement with FDA on using reduction in fatigue as the primary endpoint for future LC research and is currently planning to advance IMC-2 into Phase 2b research.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">For more information, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=fmNFhntq9xDZ2kx38jbu-xIcLMdpztBdAATcMYCgx38U672xBoZnM3TA1T12vW9TiRa4A7v9bQN3iRVmodwzrw==\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">www.dwtx.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Follow Dogwood Therapeutics<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Email Alerts: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=QbxJEmRAVDkuVkq5r8bXWIOrPYLf6BBxaq2MDAQ_HCeLs3q2lLeWOs_7qudj5GADE423_RacOomgFtAYxBEL90Q_PciFk2PYzjG9zxlcqb0Gazr2zppNY2ejF3Aha1SJ0I2oMp98W4A8zJoeSFQwLw==\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/ir.dwtx.com\/resources\/email-alerts<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">LinkedIn: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=QbxJEmRAVDkuVkq5r8bXWDzn7kmO8LzdE7BTVhra7ByUnAD_u1HDfuZuksUyRw9Iz1V2ziC7073EWmDxwLMRB9C1KWB8viVm_gIwI7QcXFkebn6UFBrXDHGaGYnjZTdlySNDcru1RyzFy-vpDn0INhavQGI5mOF0tgBx_Lw8cBc=\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/dogwoodther\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Twitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=QbxJEmRAVDkuVkq5r8bXWJShOoXotYq87jl22FHQ3LRdhXiS9IREPCzMre62MjdzgQ6__GA0k4U62WiO9IOy5qHZNTrmMgbqkjWQuZ3DqfbVGnXmS9iflyijuI_cD2Xj\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/dogwoodther<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Facebook: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=QbxJEmRAVDkuVkq5r8bXWPLOmqLbg-LXCVsu9yCti62bdRNRyFu1TL6BXDG2mHCeJstjbyCRTgFoz5U1f0Uqw4DexPVwKWWGvbWzTpOqVYEu4JWX8rQVYIXBou9Zbps-MnWqoexf0efAElZO4C0v9Q==\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dogwoodther<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Forward-Looking Statements<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Statements in this press release contain \u201cforward-looking statements,\u201d within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties.
