    ROCHESTER, N.Y., July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Graphenix Development Inc. (GDI), a Rochester-based battery materials company, has been awarded a $100,000 SuperBoost grant from the National Science Foundation’s Energy Storage Engine in Upstate New York. The funding will support GDI’s efforts to extend the cycle life of its 100% silicon anode technology through the development of a prelithiation method designed to improve battery durability and performance across sectors including defense, automotive, medical and wearable technologies.

    GDI’s silicon anodes are fabricated using a solvent-free, plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) process. The result is a high energy-density electrode that eliminates graphite, powders, binders and toxic solvents — simplifying the manufacturing process and enabling a more sustainable, domestically sourced battery supply chain. The SuperBoost project will focus on integrating lithium iron oxide (LFO) into high-nickel cathodes to enable in situ prelithiation, a method that compensates for lithium loss during early charging cycles and helps extend battery life.

    National security and defense applications are a key focus of GDI’s work, particularly as the United States seeks to secure domestic supply chains and enhance energy resilience. The project builds on GDI’s existing industry collaborations, including a next-generation tactical battery initiative with a U.S.-based defense-sector customer and ongoing evaluations with automotive manufacturers.

    Experimental work will take place at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) Battery Development Center, where GDI will validate LFO-based cathode formulations in coin cells before scaling to pouch cells assembled in RIT’s dry room facility.

    “This support from the NSF Energy Storage Engine will allow us to advance a key part of our technology roadmap,” said Robert Anstey, CEO of GDI. “Improving cycle life through prelithiation will further enhance GDI’s performance advantages in Li-ion. We have already proven >30% energy density, and 15-minute fast charging with defense cell makers. Extending cycle life further and improving durability will be particularly important for dual-use applications.”

    Fernando Gómez-Baquero, director of the Translation Pillar at the NSF Energy Storage Engine, emphasized the role of the grant in strengthening battery innovation in the region. “Cycle life is a major challenge for silicon anode batteries,” he said. “GDI’s approach to addressing this through prelithiation aligns with the Engine’s mission to accelerate high-impact technologies that bolster U.S. manufacturing and national security.”

    Meera Sampath, CEO of the NSF Energy Storage Engine, noted the broader goals of the SuperBoost initiative. “Our SuperBoost program is designed to reduce the time it takes to bring cutting-edge energy storage technologies to market — from five years to fewer than two,” said Sampath. “GDI’s work reflects the kind of advanced materials innovation that not only strengthens domestic supply chains but also supports critical defense applications, positioning upstate New York as a center for next-generation battery solutions.”

  • MIL-OSI Submissions: There are many things American voters agree on, from fears about technology to threats to democracy

    Source: The Conversation – UK – By Emma Connolly, Research Fellow, Digital Speech Lab, UCL

    During his recent public spat with Donald Trump, Elon Musk tweeted a poll asking if a new political party would better represent the 80% of voters in the middle. Hundreds of thousands of people responded and more than 80% answered “yes”.

    The middle is still overlooked in US politics. This is because there is a perception that Republicans and Democrats have nothing in common, and therefore no issue will win support from both centrist Republicans and Democrats.

    Polarisation is problematic as it is linked to “democratic backsliding” – the use of underhand tactics in political processes. Worst of all, it poses a threat to democracy.

    Many think that polarisation is fuelled by echo chambers created on social media platforms. These only expose people to beliefs similar to their own.

    However, I study how narratives emerge on social media, and ways to investigate them. My work has two aims: first, to identify political issues that are likely to cross party lines, and a wider goal of exploring the role of social media in mitigating, rather than exacerbating, levels of polarisation.


    Get your news from actual experts, straight to your inbox. Sign up to our daily newsletter to receive all The Conversation UK’s latest coverage of news and research, from politics and business to the arts and sciences.


    Earlier this year, for example, I sorted through 12,000 posts from Republican and Democrat voters on subreddits (online forums discussing specific topics). Using a technique I developed in my PhD research, I analysed attitudes to contested political issues around the time of Trump’s inauguration. Like other researchers, I am finding that there are things both sides often agree on, and that not every issue splits neatly across party lines.

    Pew Research shows what Democrats and Republicans agree on.

    Although it’s a complex topic, people from both parties are worried about levels of free speech on social media. According to my work and other sources, some Democrats accuse TikTok of censoring hashtags such as #FreeLuigi (a reference to Luigi Mangione, accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO, Brian Thompson).

    Meanwhile, some Republicans are saying they are flooded with what they see as left-wing content pushed by the algorithms. Despite their differences, Republicans and Democrats agree that social media platforms need to be more transparent about the way they work.

    Both sides worry about the rise of authoritarianism and the growing negative influence of artificial intelligence in shaping the US’s future. There is a sense among some members of the two parties that the real enemies aren’t each other, but powerful corporations who hold too much power.

    People on both sides of the political divide can be distrustful of tech companies and big businesses, where billionaires have power regardless of who’s in charge. Divisions of “up v down” could be alternatives to seeing divisions as “left v right”.

    Some people are worried about the creation of a massive database of citizens’ details, and how their details could be used, or abused. Recently Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene said she would have opposed Trump’s “big, beautiful, bill”, had she read the AI clause thoroughly. The clause stops states from passing laws to regulate AI systems for the next ten years.

    What do people agree on?

    On the topic of protecting democracy, there are some suggestions that many Republicans and Democrats agree this is important, and under threat. In my study, some Republican and Democrat voters object to the possibility of Trump having a third term, aligning with the findings of several recent polls on the subject, and even among Trump’s most loyal support groups.

    Both Republicans and Democrats want “the best” leaders who could get things done fast and efficiently. But it would appear that people on both sides are concerned about the “slash-and-burn” way that Doge (the Department for Government Efficiency, the new agency tasked with cutting federal spending) is working.

    Also, deciding who is the best leader isn’t always about agreeing with specific policies. Instead, it’s about delivering decisive, efficient action. Even Republicans who don’t back everything Trump is doing say that at least he is doing something, especially in relation to immigration.

    Many Republicans criticise the left, and former Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris in particular, but for unclear messaging, as much as any one policy. They (and others) put her loss down to a lack of direction and clarity on key issues (among other things). This probably resulted in failing to win votes from independents and moderate Republicans and many Democrats are frustrated that the party still hasn’t addressed this.

    Research suggests that Democrat and Republican voters often agree that polarisation causes gridlock and prevents progress, but believe voices from the middle are not being heard. Some Republicans and Democrats also share a concern that both parties are more focused on fighting each other than on solving problems, with 86% of Americans believing this.

    Some Republican voters in the posts I am analysing suggest that working together to get things done would be positive, supporting findings from the US and abroad. Other important factors rather than political party, such as religion or family or everyday life experiences can bring people from both sides together.

    So, Americans might not be as divided as one might think. Levels of polarisation feel high but this could be skewed by the extreme views of a minority on both sides. And it isn’t helped by some sensationalist media reporting.

    Lots of people get their news from social media platforms which reward and monetise engagement. Posts that fuel division are often the most visible, but they rarely tell the whole story. Divisive views are also often shared by those who are themselves the most polarised.

    Like Musk’s online poll, research is starting to suggest that there is still a sizeable moderate middle in the US today who are open to compromise through clear messaging. These voters can make all the difference, especially if parties can frame issues in ways that appeal across the divide. With the 2026 midterm elections on the horizon, both sides might want to listen to them more.

    Emma Connolly does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organisation that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond their academic appointment.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: The Department of Construction Materials Technology and Metrology has developed methods to improve the fire safety of concrete

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering –

    An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    Associate Professor of the Department of Construction Materials Technology and Metrology Dmitry Panteleev completed the research work “Crack resistance of dispersion-reinforced concrete after high-temperature heating” as part of the grant competition for the implementation of research work by scientific and pedagogical workers of SPbGASU in 2025.

    Every year in Russia there are many fires in buildings and structures. Their number can be reduced by increasing the requirements for the structural safety of buildings. For this, when designing, in addition to calculating the load-bearing structure for strength, it is also necessary to carry out a fire resistance calculation to guarantee the preservation of the load-bearing capacity in fire conditions for a specified time.

    In case of fire, high fire resistance of building structures is a guarantee not only of the structural integrity of the building, but also of the safety of people. After the fire starts to affect the structure, concrete can explode, breaking off from the heated surface in plates. Pieces of peeling concrete fly off with a bang to a distance of up to 10 m.

    During the research, fibre-reinforced concrete compositions were designed and manufactured, followed by determination of their properties after exposure to high-temperature heating.

    It was found that the use of steel fiber can increase the crack resistance and fracture toughness of concrete structures, thereby making them safer in the event of a fire, while the use of synthetic microfiber helps to avoid explosive destruction.

    As a result of the research, effective versions of fiber concrete were developed using high-modulus steel and low-modulus synthetic fibers to obtain highly fire-resistant concrete, to increase their technical and economic efficiency, reliability and operational safety of building and structure structures.

    SHANGHAI, July 8 (Xinhua) — A special exhibition titled “Great Poet, Pride of the Nation – A.S. Pushkin and Eastern Repercussions” opened at the China Printing and Publishing Museum in Shanghai on Monday.

    The event presents more than one hundred exhibits from the collection of the All-Russian Museum of A.S. Pushkin, which provide a comprehensive overview of the creative path of Alexander Pushkin and the dissemination of his works in China over more than 100 years. Many of them were imported to China for the first time and shown to the country’s residents.

    The exhibition consists of three parts dedicated to the poet’s biography, his classical works, and his connection with China. Pushkin’s study in the Mikhailovskoye estate, where the Russian poet created the historical drama “Boris Godunov” and other famous lyric poems, was recreated on site.

    The exhibition also features valuable works of art created by Russian artists from the late 19th to the early 21st century, such as Ilya Repin’s painting “The Duel of Onegin and Lensky,” Alexander Benois’s illustrations for “The Bronze Horseman,” and Vladimir Favorsky’s illustrations for “Boris Godunov.”

    In addition, the exhibition pays great attention to the dissemination of the Russian poet’s works and their influence in China, and presents rich literary sources, including a copy of the Shiu Bao newspaper, in which, as is known, A.S. Pushkin was first mentioned in China.

    At the same time, the exhibition also displays manuscripts and personal collections of Chinese translators, which have become important evidence of Sino-Russian literary exchanges. Among them are works and translations by Ge Baoquan, Wang Zhiliang, Feng Chun, as well as the Pushkin Medal awarded to Liu Wenfei and his award certificate.

    Museum visitors can use an interactive device to receive commemorative postcards printed with poems such as “If Life Deceives You…,” translated by Ge Baoquan, Feng Chun and Liu Wenfei.

    The exhibition opened to the public on Tuesday and runs until October 9.

    Shanghai has an inseparable connection with Pushkin. Let us recall that at the beginning of the 20th century, Pushkin’s novel “The Captain’s Daughter” was translated into Chinese and published in Shanghai. This novel became the first work of Russian literature translated into Chinese and published as a separate book, which, according to some scholars, marked the beginning of the translation and dissemination of Russian literature in China.

    Moreover, in one of the squares of the Chinese metropolis there is a monument to the great Russian poet, which was originally erected in early February 1937, restored in February 1947 and reconstructed in August 1987. -0-

  • MIL-OSI: Bell Wealth Partners Launches with Support of LPL Strategic Wealth Services

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SAN DIEGO, July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — LPL Financial LLC announced today that father and son financial advisors Robert Bell, II, AIF®, and Keegan Bell, AIF®, AAMS®, have launched a new independent practice, Bell Wealth Partners, through affiliation with LPL Financial’s supported independence model, LPL Strategic Wealth Services. The team reported serving approximately $450 million in advisory, brokerage and retirement plan assets* and joins LPL from Raymond James.

    Headquartered in Fairbanks, Alaska with an additional office in Medford, Ore., the ensemble practice has developed a strong reputation over the years for providing holistic experiences and personalized services to address each aspect of a client’s financial life. The Bells are managing partners of the firm and are joined by fellow advisor Tom Cook and client associates Renee Schoettle, Margarita Duran-Espino, Jamie Walker and Kirsten Bell, Robert’s wife.

    “We are all deeply invested in helping our clients work toward their financial goals,” Robert said. “We take the time to get to know each client on a personal level to better understand their financial aspirations, and we work with their accountants and attorneys to create a customized plan that is right for them. It’s our goal to help clients have happy, fulfilled lives, and we consider it our privilege and responsibility to help them with that.”

    Why they made the move to LPL Financial

    The transition to LPL Financial is underpinned by the team’s aspiration to augment client experiences and cater to the next generation of wealth.

    “We’re moving to LPL so we can add more value to the client experience as we seek new ways to go above and beyond,” Keegan said. “We want to be a one-stop shop—a center to help with a clients’ entire financial situation. This move allows us to really increase that value add and better take care of them, not just for them but for the next generation of wealth and the transfer to their beneficiaries.”

    The team was drawn to LPL’s comprehensive supported independence solution, LPL Strategic Wealth Services (SW), which combines the freedom and flexibility of entrepreneurship with hands-on business services and support to help practices thrive, both operationally and strategically. In addition to having access to LPL’s innovative wealth management platform and sophisticated resources, SW advisors benefit from a truly integrated service that includes simplified pricing, technology and dedicated support to launch their practice. Then, after the transition is complete, SW teams receive ongoing operations support managed by their team of experienced professionals including a business strategist, marketing partner, CFO and administrative assistant. Advisors have one point of contact, a dedicated team and priority access to advocacy and project management for complex business issues, ultimately allowing them to stay focused on the enduring needs of their clients and the culture and evolution of their practice.

    “Strategic Wealth Services was truly a differentiating factor in our decision to move,” Robert said. “We are joining a very niche group at LPL, which allows us to collaborate with others in the model and access a team of specialists, including high-net-worth and trust consultants. This move enables us to add an extra layer of planning and ensure we’re not just taking care of clients now, but their beneficiaries as well.”

    Scott Posner, LPL Managing Director, Business Development, said, “We welcome Robert, Keegan, Tom, Renee, Margarita, Jamie and Kirsten to the LPL community and congratulate them on going independent with LPL Strategic Wealth. Just as the Bell Wealth Partners team is committed to helping their clients work toward their fiscal goals, LPL provides advisors with innovative technology and sophisticated capabilities to help them provide an elevated client experience. We look forward to supporting Bell Wealth Partners for years to come.”

  • MIL-OSI: Global Oncology Breakthroughs Being Fueled by Advancements in Clinical Trials and New Therapies

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    PALM BEACH, Fla., July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FN Media Group News Commentary – The global oncology market, including breakthrough treatments, is experiencing substantial growth, with revenues projected to reach hundreds of billions of dollars in the coming years. Several factors are driving this expansion, including rising cancer incidence, advancements in therapies like precision medicine and immunotherapy, and increased investment in research and development. A report from Grand View Research said that the global breakthrough therapy designation market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 14.2% through 2030. It is a process designed to escalate the development and assessment of sanctioning of drugs & biologics that are proposed for treating severe diseases, whereas primary clinical evidence notifies that the drug determines considerable enhancement over existing therapy on a clinically significant endpoint. Furthermore, the BT (Breakthrough) designation lets pharma companies hasten the developmental process by offering additional support and assistance from the FDA and making medications available to the public faster. The report continued: “Apart from breakthrough designation therapy, there are some important tools, all of which have been in place for many years, such as fast-track designation, accelerated approval, and priority review. All of these are inclined toward approving drugs used to treat serious disorders. Although these processes can reduce a drug’s time to market, standard clinical testing is required for the development process, which usually involves three phases of large-scale and controlled trials.” Active oncology biotech and pharma companies in the markets this week include Oncolytics Biotech®Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC), Mustang Bio, Inc. (NASDAQ: MBIO), Verastem Oncology (NASDAQ: VSTM), Cardiff Oncology, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRDF), AstraZeneca PLC (NASDAQ: AZN).

    Grand View Research continued: “The increasing prevalence of life-threatening conditions and the necessity for the rapid development of pipeline drugs are also some factors that propel the breakthrough therapy drug market. This is primarily driven by the significant unmet need for effective treatments for severe conditions currently available. Manufacturing companies are particularly attentive to drugs designated as breakthrough therapies due to the accelerated market access and higher returns on investment. Breakthrough therapy drugs often undergo less extensive clinical trials, which is a direct consequence of their market designation. The FDA’s enhanced support for small-scale industries in research and development, including increased funding and expedited drug approval processes, is further stimulating the market for breakthrough therapy drugs. Collectively, these elements are pushing the breakthrough therapy drug market forward. Further, innovative gene and cell therapies are offering new treatment decisions for previously untreatable illnesses, mainly drifting to more breakthrough therapy designations. Moreover, the regulatory support agencies are streamlining processes and offering assistance for breakthrough therapies to speed up their development and sanction. Another aspect leading the breakthrough therapy designations is the cross-sector collaborations between academic institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and research institutes that are lifting the upgradation and the advancement of new breakthrough therapies completely.”

    Oncolytics Biotech®Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC) Highlights Transformative Pelareorep Survival Data in Multiple Tumors and Commitment to Registration-Enabling Studies

    • Comparison with multiple landmark first-line metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma studies substantiates strong two-year survival benefit of 21.9% vs. 9.2% historical benchmark
    • Consistent survival benefit compared to standard-of-care chemotherapy in randomized studies in the large HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer indication
    • Data from over 1,100 patients across tumor types reveals a favorable, well-understood safety profile

    Oncolytics Biotech ® Inc. ($ONCY $ONC), a leading clinical-stage company specializing in immunotherapy for oncology, today announced a strategic update highlighting its compelling clinical data from two tumor types and outlining a sharpened focus on advancing pelareorep, the Company’s intravenously delivered oncolytic virus immunotherapy, into registration-enabling studies.

    “We are no longer in the business of funding proof-of-concept studies,” said Jared Kelly, Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. “We have meaningful clinical data in hand—not just signals. The survival benefit across multiple tumor types demands a focused approach to take pelareorep directly into registration-enabling trials. We will use our fast-track status to find the most efficient regulatory path forward this summer to advance our platform in a product technology.”

    Results from two completed first-line metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (mPDAC) trials demonstrate a strong and consistent efficacy signal showing extremely rare 2-year overall survival rates of 21.9% vs. 9.2% based on pooled data from over 100 patients across two studies evaluating pelareorep combined with a chemotherapy backbone. In addition, a best-in-class 62% objective response rate (ORR) was observed in a single-arm study of pelareorep in combination with a chemotherapy backbone and a checkpoint inhibitor in 13 evaluable patients. These results collectively represent promising efficacy for a therapeutic regimen that includes an immunotherapy in this difficult-to-treat cancer. Currently, there are no approved immunotherapies for first-line treatment of mPDAC…

    …Pelareorep’s clinical activity in HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer – a large indication with continued significant unmet medical need and no currently approved immunotherapies – has been demonstrated in two randomized phase 2 studies, both of which showed a median overall survival (mOS) benefit of greater than 10 months compared to standard-of-care chemotherapy (IND.213 mOS: 21.0 vs. 10.8 months; BRACELET-1 mOS: not statistically reached; conservative estimate = 32.1 months vs. 18.2 months). In the randomized, controlled BRACELET-1 study, pelareorep combined with paclitaxel yielded a 12.1-month median progression-free survival (PFS) compared to 6.4 months in the paclitaxel alone control arm.

    “Pelareorep represents a tipping point for immunotherapy in cold tumors,” said Dr. Thomas Heineman, Chief Medical Officer of Oncolytics. “It is delivering consistent immunologic and clinical responses in multiple tumor types. Most impressively, pelareorep activates the immune system to produce clinical benefits in cancers that are typically unresponsive to immunotherapies like mPDAC and unresectable HR+/HER2- breast cancer, creating new oncology entry points for immune-based combination therapies.” CONTINUED Read these full press releases and more news for ONCY at: https://www.financialnewsmedia.com/news-oncy/

    Other recent oncology developments in the biotech industry of note include:

    Mustang Bio, Inc. (NASDAQ: MBIO), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on translating today’s medical breakthroughs in cell therapies into potential cures for difficult-to-treat cancers, recently announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has granted Orphan Drug Designation to Mustang for MB-101 (IL13Ra2-targeted CAR T-cells) for the treatment of recurrent diffuse and anaplastic astrocytoma (astrocytomas) and glioblastoma (GBM).

    The FDA grants Orphan Drug Designation to drugs and biologics that are intended for safe and effective treatment, diagnosis or prevention of rare diseases or disorders that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the U.S. Orphan Drug Designation provides certain incentives, such as tax credits toward the cost of clinical trials upon approval and prescription drug user fee waivers. If a product receives Orphan Drug Status from the FDA, that product is entitled to seven years of market exclusivity for the disease in which it has Orphan Drug designation, which is independent from intellectual property protection.

    Verastem Oncology (NASDAQ: VSTM), a biopharmaceutical company committed to advancing new medicines for patients with RAS/MAPK pathway-driven cancers, recently announced that updated results from the Phase 1/2 FRAME study conducted by The Institute of Cancer Research, London, and The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust were published online in Nature Medicine. The full manuscript, titled “Defactinib with avutometinib in patients with solid tumors: the phase 1 FRAME trial,” was the first-in-human study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of avutometinib in combination with defactinib in patients with low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and other solid tumor types.

    “The FRAME study was the early foundation for the recent FDA approval of avutometinib plus defactinib in KRAS-mutated recurrent low-grade serous ovarian cancer and we are pleased to see that the mature data set continues to show the safety and tolerability of this combination therapy,” said Dan Paterson, president and chief executive officer of Verastem Oncology. “This supports our ongoing commitment to advancing our research into the combination for use in other solid tumors, including RAMP 205 in first-line metastatic pancreatic cancer.”

    Cardiff Oncology, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRDF), a clinical-stage biotechnology company leveraging PLK1 inhibition to develop novel therapies across a range of cancers, recently announced the company has appointed Roger Sidhu, MD, as Chief Medical Officer. Dr. Sidhu is a veteran executive and clinician with over 20 years of experience and a strong track record of success in oncology research, development, and regulatory strategy. Dr. Sidhu succeeds Dr. Fairooz Kabbinavar who will remain with the company in an advisory role. The company also announced it will share additional clinical data from its lead program in RAS-mutated mCRC on July 29, 2025.

    “We are pleased to welcome Dr. Sidhu to lead the clinical program for onvansertib through the next phase of development. Dr. Sidhu is a respected clinician and seasoned executive with a proven track record of advancing innovative therapies through late-stage clinical development across multiple therapeutic areas including in first-line mCRC. As we move forward, we thank Dr. Kabbinavar for his leadership in progressing onvansertib’s clinical development across multiple tumor types,” said Mark Erlander, Chief Executive Officer of Cardiff Oncology. “In addition to today’s medical leadership transition, we are announcing our plan to share an update of clinical data from the ongoing CRDF-004 trial on July 29, at which point we expect to release a substantive dataset.”

    AstraZeneca PLC (NASDAQ: AZN)‘s Imfinzi (durvalumab) has been approved in the European Union (EU) for the treatment of adult patients with resectable muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin as neoadjuvant treatment, followed by Imfinzi as monotherapy adjuvant treatment after radical cystectomy (surgery to remove the bladder).

    The approval by the European Commission follows the positive opinion of the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use and is based on results from the NIAGARA Phase III trial, which were published in The New England Journal of Medicine.

    In a planned interim analysis, the Imfinzi-based perioperative regimen demonstrated a statistically significant 32% reduction in the risk of disease progression, recurrence, not undergoing surgery, or death versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy with radical cystectomy alone (based on event-free survival [EFS] hazard ratio [HR] of 0.68; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.56-0.82; p<0.0001). Estimated median EFS was not yet reached for the Imfinzi arm versus 46.1 months for the comparator arm. An estimated 67.8% of patients treated with the regimen were event free at two years compared to 59.8% in the comparator arm.

Further, innovative gene and cell therapies are offering new treatment decisions for previously untreatable illnesses, mainly drifting to more breakthrough therapy designations. Moreover, the regulatory support agencies are streamlining processes and offering assistance for breakthrough therapies to speed up their development and sanction. Another aspect leading the breakthrough therapy designations is the cross-sector collaborations between academic institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and research institutes that are lifting the upgradation and the advancement of new breakthrough therapies completely.”

    Oncolytics Biotech®Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC) Highlights Transformative Pelareorep Survival Data in Multiple Tumors and Commitment to Registration-Enabling Studies

    • Comparison with multiple landmark first-line metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma studies substantiates strong two-year survival benefit of 21.9% vs. 9.2% historical benchmark
    • Consistent survival benefit compared to standard-of-care chemotherapy in randomized studies in the large HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer indication
    • Data from over 1,100 patients across tumor types reveals a favorable, well-understood safety profile

    Oncolytics Biotech ® Inc. ($ONCY $ONC), a leading clinical-stage company specializing in immunotherapy for oncology, today announced a strategic update highlighting its compelling clinical data from two tumor types and outlining a sharpened focus on advancing pelareorep, the Company’s intravenously delivered oncolytic virus immunotherapy, into registration-enabling studies.

    “We are no longer in the business of funding proof-of-concept studies,” said Jared Kelly, Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. “We have meaningful clinical data in hand—not just signals. The survival benefit across multiple tumor types demands a focused approach to take pelareorep directly into registration-enabling trials. We will use our fast-track status to find the most efficient regulatory path forward this summer to advance our platform in a product technology.”

    Results from two completed first-line metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (mPDAC) trials demonstrate a strong and consistent efficacy signal showing extremely rare 2-year overall survival rates of 21.9% vs. 9.2% based on pooled data from over 100 patients across two studies evaluating pelareorep combined with a chemotherapy backbone. In addition, a best-in-class 62% objective response rate (ORR) was observed in a single-arm study of pelareorep in combination with a chemotherapy backbone and a checkpoint inhibitor in 13 evaluable patients. These results collectively represent promising efficacy for a therapeutic regimen that includes an immunotherapy in this difficult-to-treat cancer. Currently, there are no approved immunotherapies for first-line treatment of mPDAC…

    …Pelareorep’s clinical activity in HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer – a large indication with continued significant unmet medical need and no currently approved immunotherapies – has been demonstrated in two randomized phase 2 studies, both of which showed a median overall survival (mOS) benefit of greater than 10 months compared to standard-of-care chemotherapy (IND.213 mOS: 21.0 vs. 10.8 months; BRACELET-1 mOS: not statistically reached; conservative estimate = 32.1 months vs. 18.2 months). In the randomized, controlled BRACELET-1 study, pelareorep combined with paclitaxel yielded a 12.1-month median progression-free survival (PFS) compared to 6.4 months in the paclitaxel alone control arm.

    “Pelareorep represents a tipping point for immunotherapy in cold tumors,” said Dr. Thomas Heineman, Chief Medical Officer of Oncolytics. “It is delivering consistent immunologic and clinical responses in multiple tumor types. Most impressively, pelareorep activates the immune system to produce clinical benefits in cancers that are typically unresponsive to immunotherapies like mPDAC and unresectable HR+/HER2- breast cancer, creating new oncology entry points for immune-based combination therapies.” CONTINUED Read these full press releases and more news for ONCY at: https://www.financialnewsmedia.com/news-oncy/

    Other recent oncology developments in the biotech industry of note include:

    Mustang Bio, Inc. (NASDAQ: MBIO), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on translating today’s medical breakthroughs in cell therapies into potential cures for difficult-to-treat cancers, recently announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has granted Orphan Drug Designation to Mustang for MB-101 (IL13Ra2-targeted CAR T-cells) for the treatment of recurrent diffuse and anaplastic astrocytoma (astrocytomas) and glioblastoma (GBM).

    The FDA grants Orphan Drug Designation to drugs and biologics that are intended for safe and effective treatment, diagnosis or prevention of rare diseases or disorders that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the U.S. Orphan Drug Designation provides certain incentives, such as tax credits toward the cost of clinical trials upon approval and prescription drug user fee waivers. If a product receives Orphan Drug Status from the FDA, that product is entitled to seven years of market exclusivity for the disease in which it has Orphan Drug designation, which is independent from intellectual property protection.

    Verastem Oncology (NASDAQ: VSTM), a biopharmaceutical company committed to advancing new medicines for patients with RAS/MAPK pathway-driven cancers, recently announced that updated results from the Phase 1/2 FRAME study conducted by The Institute of Cancer Research, London, and The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust were published online in Nature Medicine. The full manuscript, titled “Defactinib with avutometinib in patients with solid tumors: the phase 1 FRAME trial,” was the first-in-human study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of avutometinib in combination with defactinib in patients with low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and other solid tumor types.

    “The FRAME study was the early foundation for the recent FDA approval of avutometinib plus defactinib in KRAS-mutated recurrent low-grade serous ovarian cancer and we are pleased to see that the mature data set continues to show the safety and tolerability of this combination therapy,” said Dan Paterson, president and chief executive officer of Verastem Oncology. “This supports our ongoing commitment to advancing our research into the combination for use in other solid tumors, including RAMP 205 in first-line metastatic pancreatic cancer.”

    Cardiff Oncology, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRDF), a clinical-stage biotechnology company leveraging PLK1 inhibition to develop novel therapies across a range of cancers, recently announced the company has appointed Roger Sidhu, MD, as Chief Medical Officer. Dr. Sidhu is a veteran executive and clinician with over 20 years of experience and a strong track record of success in oncology research, development, and regulatory strategy. Dr. Sidhu succeeds Dr. Fairooz Kabbinavar who will remain with the company in an advisory role. The company also announced it will share additional clinical data from its lead program in RAS-mutated mCRC on July 29, 2025.

    “We are pleased to welcome Dr. Sidhu to lead the clinical program for onvansertib through the next phase of development. Dr. Sidhu is a respected clinician and seasoned executive with a proven track record of advancing innovative therapies through late-stage clinical development across multiple therapeutic areas including in first-line mCRC. As we move forward, we thank Dr. Kabbinavar for his leadership in progressing onvansertib’s clinical development across multiple tumor types,” said Mark Erlander, Chief Executive Officer of Cardiff Oncology. “In addition to today’s medical leadership transition, we are announcing our plan to share an update of clinical data from the ongoing CRDF-004 trial on July 29, at which point we expect to release a substantive dataset.”

    AstraZeneca PLC (NASDAQ: AZN)‘s Imfinzi (durvalumab) has been approved in the European Union (EU) for the treatment of adult patients with resectable muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin as neoadjuvant treatment, followed by Imfinzi as monotherapy adjuvant treatment after radical cystectomy (surgery to remove the bladder).

    The approval by the European Commission follows the positive opinion of the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use and is based on results from the NIAGARA Phase III trial, which were published in The New England Journal of Medicine.

    In a planned interim analysis, the Imfinzi-based perioperative regimen demonstrated a statistically significant 32% reduction in the risk of disease progression, recurrence, not undergoing surgery, or death versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy with radical cystectomy alone (based on event-free survival [EFS] hazard ratio [HR] of 0.68; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.56-0.82; p<0.0001). Estimated median EFS was not yet reached for the Imfinzi arm versus 46.1 months for the comparator arm. An estimated 67.8% of patients treated with the regimen were event free at two years compared to 59.8% in the comparator arm.

  • MIL-OSI: Xsolis’ AI-Driven Solution, New Features Evaluated in KLAS Second Look Report

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    FRANKLIN, Tenn., July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Xsolis, an AI-driven technology company that reduces administrative waste by enabling collaboration between healthcare providers and payers, was featured today in the KLAS Second Look Report, “Xsolis Platform 2025: Improving Utilization Management, Length of Stay & Denial Performance Through AI-Driven Offerings in the Mid-Revenue Cycle.” The KLAS Second Look Report focuses on how the customer experience has changed over the past four years, including as a result of enhancements made available within Dragonfly, the next generation of the company’s AI-driven platform.

    KLAS is an independent research organization that helps healthcare providers make informed technology decisions by offering accurate, honest, and impartial vendor performance information. KLAS interviewed Xsolis clients in early 2025 for a second look, and reports the following anonymized key findings:

    • Respondents report satisfaction within the Key Performance Indicators:
      • Supports integration goals
      • Product has needed functionality (delivers solutions as expected)
      • Executive involvement
      • Likely to recommend
    • 89% of KLAS-surveyed customers report using Xsolis’ AI technology to minimize preventable denials
    • 91% of respondents say they are Satisfied or Highly Satisfied with Overall Performance
    • 88% of respondents say they saw outcomes Immediately, Within 6 Months, or Within 6-12 Months
    • 78% engage in payer-provider communications through the Dragonfly platform
    • Respondents who have been on Xsolis’ AI-driven platform for more than one year report excitement about new updates and functionalities that are being offered as a result of Dragonfly
    • Respondents report the top reasons they selected the Xsolis platform as: advanced AI technology, excellent customer service, seamless EHR integration, and positive references
    • Respondents say the Xsolis platform has reduced the length of patient stays, saved on costs, and improved observation rates and denials rates

    “What has changed with our most recent KLAS survey effort is our expanded footprint and the problems Xsolis solves, including optimizing length-of-stay and increasing payer-provider collaboration, which have been critical in bringing relief to our clients,” said Joan Butters, CEO and co-founder of Xsolis. “As we enhance our solutions to deliver frictionless healthcare in meaningful, new ways for our clients, it is both validating and informative to learn their feedback as we continue to meet their evolving needs.”

    A Kaiser Family Foundation survey from 2023 revealed claims denials are up, with nearly one in five adults experiencing health insurance claim denials in the previous year. Adjudicating denials costs just under $20 billion a year, and around half of denials are ultimately overturned — a costly problem that can be improved with tools that accelerate payer-provider alignment. Late 2024 marked an inflection point for payer-provider friction and how it affects the patient experience, accelerating the need for transparency and reform.

    Xsolis was featured in a KLAS Top 20 Emerging Solutions Report and as one of the top five solutions for reducing the cost of care in 2022 and was listed in 2025 as No. 1 Best in KLAS for Physician Advisory Services for the fourth year. A payer client’s and provider client’s use of Xsolis’ shared platform was recognized in a 2023 KLAS Points of Light Case Study, which highlights successful payer-provider initiatives that lead to an improved patient experience.

    As a pioneer in the practical, effective application of AI in healthcare, Xsolis has been helping its clients make more informed medical necessity decisions during utilization reviews since 2013. Dragonfly represents the next generation of the company’s AI-driven platform and was launched in late 2024. The platform is powered by Predictive AI models, offers new Generative AI tools, and can be augmented with advanced analytic packages such as Navigate to reduce length of stay or Revenue Integrity Insights. Xsolis also offers Denials Management Services and Physician Advisory Services. To date, Xsolis’ solutions are used in more than 500 hospitals nationwide, with two-thirds having shared AI platform access with their networked health plans.

    PORTSMOUTH, N.H., July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Blue Mantis, a leading provider of digital strategy and services specializing in managed services, cybersecurity and cloud solutions, today announced that it has been selected as a preferred vendor by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to deliver Cyber Incident Response Plan (IRP) and Tabletop Exercise (TTX) services to state agencies as part of the State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program. This federal grant program enables Blue Mantis to further its commitment to strengthening the Commonwealth’s overall cybersecurity posture at the state and local level.

    Empowering State Agencies to Build Resilience Against Cyber Threats
    With the growing sophistication and frequency of cyberattacks, state agencies face mounting pressure to safeguard sensitive data, maintain critical operations, and demonstrate compliance with evolving statutes and regulations. The Blue Mantis IRP and TTX program provides Massachusetts agencies with comprehensive, scalable, and actionable solutions for incident response planning and cyber readiness.

    Through this contract, agencies can access:

    • Custom-Tailored Cyber Incident Response Plans (IRPs): Developed in alignment with industry best practices (NIST, CISA), these plans provide clear protocols, role assignments, and communication strategies, ensuring agencies are equipped to respond effectively to cyber incidents.
    • Scenario-Based Tabletop Exercises (TTXs): Interactive exercises based on the MITRE ATT&CK® framework allow agencies to test and validate their incident response plans, uncover potential gaps, and enhance cross-team coordination.
    • Proven Methodologies and Expertise: Drawing on over 30 years of experience supporting public sector and enterprise organizations, Blue Mantis combines deep technical expertise with a collaborative, customer-first approach that prioritizes measurable outcomes.
    • Accelerated Service Delivery: With the capacity to support multiple agencies simultaneously and a streamlined engagement lifecycle, Blue Mantis ensures agencies receive timely, high-quality support tailored to their unique operational environments.
    • Alignment with Compliance and Security Standards: All services are designed to meet or exceed the Commonwealth’s information security policies, accessibility standards, and regulatory requirements.

    A Partnership Built on Experience and Results
    This initiative is supported by Blue Mantis’ partnership with the Executive Office of Technology Services & Security (EOTSS). Together, these organizations are ensuring that Commonwealth agencies have access to best-in-class cybersecurity services, driving greater resiliency and preparedness across the public sector.

    “Cybersecurity is a team sport, and protecting the Commonwealth’s agencies requires public-private collaboration, expertise, and unwavering commitment,” said Josh Dinneen, CEO of Blue Mantis. “Thanks to our partnership with EOTSS, Blue Mantis is uniquely positioned to help state agencies anticipate, withstand, and recover from cyber threats. Our IRP and TTX services empower agencies to achieve new levels of resilience, compliance, and confidence as they serve the people of Massachusetts.”

  • MIL-OSI: LPL Research Team Releases Midyear Outlook 2025: Pragmatic Optimism, Measured Expectations

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    This annual report offers a comprehensive analysis of the economic and market environment, highlighting potential implications for investors and their portfolios

    SAN DIEGO, July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — LPL Financial LLC today released its Midyear Outlook 2025: Pragmatic Optimism, Measured Expectations. Setting the tone for the second half of 2025, this report offers a comprehensive analysis of the economic and market environment, highlighting potential implications for investors and their portfolios.

    The Midyear Outlook 2025 offers a grounded, data-driven view of where the economy and markets may be headed next. As we reach the halfway mark of the year, trends in income and savings underscore how markets are still recalibrating in response to persistent inflation, a more measured Federal Reserve stance, ongoing tariff uncertainties and the volatility that continues to ripple through global financial systems.

    “Investors and policymakers will need to carefully evaluate the true economic impact of these policy shifts,” said Marc Zabicki, Chief Investment Officer at LPL Financial. “The base-case view is an economy that will begin to show more definitive adverse effects from trade policy with slower labor demand, weaker growth and an uptick in inflation.”

    Key Highlights from the Midyear Outlook 2025

    • Uncertainty in Markets & Evolving Policy: In the second half of the year, delayed effects of trade policy are expected to slow economic growth, soften labor demand and push inflation slightly higher. This challenging backdrop will likely keep the Federal Reserve in a cautious holding pattern on monetary policy for an extended period.
    • The State of the U.S. Economy & Potential Risks: Debt concerns, trade uncertainty and a cautious Federal Reserve are likely to keep Treasury yields range-bound in the second half. With yields still elevated by historical standards, investors should focus on income generation through intermediate-term bonds. As the Fed eventually begins cutting short-term rates, declining cash yields will make bonds increasingly attractive for long-term income and portfolio stability.
    • Investment Strategies in More Volatile Markets: The stock market’s outlook for the second half of the year will hinge on trade talks, AI developments, interest rate swings and tax policy. With valuations already pricing in much of the good news, gains may be modest. While volatility is expected in a tough macro environment, market pullbacks could offer smart opportunities to selectively add to equity positions.
    • Potential Trends & Opportunities in the Second Half of 2025: With economic and policy uncertainty likely to persist, tactical portfolios should strike a balance between risk management and seizing emerging opportunities. Diversifying across asset classes, regions and alternatives can help enhance resilience. Staying alert during market volatility may present timely chances to add equity exposure at more favorable valuations.

    “There’s also a strong likelihood that policy-driven uncertainty is past its high-water mark, and as it recedes, stability should gradually return, bringing with it plenty of new investment opportunities,” Zabicki added. “The environment we see ahead calls for balancing risk mitigation with proactive positioning for long-term upside opportunities—if you know where to look.”

  • MIL-OSI: Zenolabs.AI CEO Rohan Sharma Launches First-of-its-Kind Equitable AI Trust Index and Releases Springer Book AI and the Boardroom

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SAN FRANCISCO, July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Amid growing concerns around AI transparency, fairness, and societal impact, Zenolabs.AI CEO Rohan Sharma today launched the Equitable AI Trust Index™—the first public framework scoring AI systems on democratic legitimacy, transparency, and civic accountability. The release aligns with Sharma’s Springer Nature book, AI and the Boardroom, recently featured in Directors Today.

    “Boards and policymakers urgently need a single, clear lens on AI risk,” Sharma said. “Our Index integrates NIST, OECD, and EU AI Act standards into a transparent, easy-to-use scoring system. For the first time, stakeholders gain immediate visibility into where algorithms are accountable—or critically falling short.”

    Why It Matters
    Recent surveys reveal 46% of users distrust AI and 64% of firms lack visibility into model risk. With the EU AI Act’s enforcement deadlines approaching in 2026, the Equitable AI Trust Index™ equips organizations with policy-ready tools to meet stringent transparency and accountability requirements, critical for responsible scaling across enterprises, cities, and governments.

    How the Index Works
    The Index offers a clear, actionable framework for assessing AI fairness and accountability:

    • Public Trust Metric: first-of-its-kind score measuring community trust in AI through public input.
    • Proactive Risk Alerts: real-time insights to ensure compliance with global standards, months ahead of deadlines.
    • Fairness Focus: prioritizes equity for underserved communities and public services.
    • Policy-Ready Reports: instantly generate EU AI Act, NIST, and OECD-aligned audit reports.

    About Rohan Sharma
    Sharma has led AI, data and digital programs at Apple, Disney and Thermo Fisher Scientific. A recognized authority on AI governance, Sharma advises Stanford Seed and UCLA Anderson, contributes regularly to Forbes and the World Economic Forum, and serves on advisory councils including Harvard Business Review and Frost C Sullivan. His TEDx Yale talk and peer-reviewed chapters on AI governance and ethics have reached global audiences from Hollywood to Washington, D.C.

    Equitable AI Trust Index™: Analysis of Major AI Models
    The first comprehensive assessment of leading AI models using the 11-point Index reveals a democratic-legitimacy crisis in AI governance:

    Key Findings
    Our analysis reveals a democratic legitimacy crisis in AI governance, with only 20% of leading models meeting exemplary civic trust standards.

    • 20%: of leading models meet exemplary civic trust standards
    • 59-point: governance gap between best and worst performing models
    • 90.9/100: highest overall trust score (Anthropic Claude)
    • 39.4/100: lowest overall trust score (OpenAI ChatGPT)

In the first half of 2025, the Georgia-based financial institution closed 57 SBA and USDA loans totaling $256,038,702, reinforcing its position as one of the fastest-moving mission-driven lenders in the nation. Community Bankshares is the holding company of Community Bank & Trust, Phoenix Lender Services, and Thomas Financial Group.

    In Q2 2025 alone, the company closed:

    • 25 SBA loans via Phoenix’s SBA team totaling $48,765,200 in 15 states.

    • 2 USDA loans via Thomas Financial Group’s team totaling $24,715,000 in 2 states.

    “We’re not just providing capital, we’re providing it quickly,” said Chris Hurn, President & CEO of Community Bankshares and Phoenix Lender Services. “Closing a government-guaranteed loan in 30 to 45 days isn’t just rare, it’s transformative. It means our clients can grow, hire, and build when it matters most.”

    “Thomas Financial Group was instrumental in our acquisition of The National Exchange Hotel and the Holbrooke Hotel—not just because they understood the nuances of hospitality lending, but because they delivered when time was critical. Under a tight deadline, they demonstrated incredible speed, efficiency, and unwavering commitment. Their ability to move decisively while maintaining a personal, solutions-oriented approach sets them apart.

  • MIL-OSI: CAI Launches Cyber Insurance Assessment to Address Cybersecurity Vulnerabilities

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    ALLENTOWN, Pa., July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CAI, a global services firm, announced today the launch of its cyber insurance assessment to evaluate organizations’ cybersecurity postures. Designed to consolidate 15 critical cybersecurity categories into one comprehensive form, the results can be used to ensure compliance, remediate vulnerabilities and leveraged when applying for insurance or updating existing carriers.

    More than $9.8 billion in cyber insurance premiums were reported in 20231, and with global cybercrime costs projected to escalate to multitrillions by the end of 20252, organizations continue to take precautions. The cyber insurance assessment gauges data privacy and security, governance and policies, logical access controls, AI, among others. Aligned with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0, the audit serves information security officers who are interested in understanding and bolstering their cyber resilience.

    • Extensive NIST CSF 2.0 coverage: Features six main functions within the framework including identify, protect, detect, respond, recover and govern.
    • User-centric design: Streamlines the assessment process by minimizing redundancies, making it faster and more efficient for organizations of all sizes to complete.
    • Strategic insights: Delivers actionable recommendations, enabling stakeholders to prioritize cybersecurity investments.

    “We recognized a significant gap in the industry where companies, especially smaller organizations, struggled with the intricacies of cyber insurance assessments,” said Rex Johnson, vice president, Cybersecurity and Cloud Services at CAI. “Our universal assessment provides a standardized approach, empowering organizations and their security leaders with accurate, crucial and fast cybersecurity evaluations they can trust.”
