REVIVE THERAPEUTICS ANNOUNCES ACQUISITION OF MOLECULAR HYDROGEN PROGRAM

Further to Revive Therapeutics Ltd.'s press release dated March 3, 2025, it has entered into an asset purchase agreement dated March 31, 2025, with Diagnamed Holdings Corp. to acquire the full rights to Diagnamed's intellectual property (the acquired assets) pertaining to molecular hydrogen as potential treatments for neurological and mental health disorders (the acquisition).

Pursuant to the agreement, the consideration for the acquired assets will be satisfied through the issuance to Diagnamed of one million common shares of Revive, at an issue price of five cents per share, representing a purchase price of $50,000. The issuance of the common shares is subject to regulatory approvals, including the Canadian Securities Exchange, and will be subject to restrictions on resale under applicable securities laws. There are no further financial terms, including milestones, royalties or other monetary obligation payments pursuant to the agreement.

The acquired assets will include all of the following:

  • Provisional patent application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office outlining pharmaceutical-based methods and compositions for producing molecular hydrogen as potential treatments for neurological and mental health disorders. The patent application, entitled "Methods and compositions for Producing Hydrogen for Treating Diseases and Disorders Affecting Brain Health," outlines novel combinations of certain pharmaceutical-grade hydrogen producing ingredients as a potential therapeutic option for a variety of neurological disorders such as, but not limited to, dementia, Parkinson's disease and traumatic brain injury, and mental health disorders including depression, anxiety and posttraumatic stress disorder.
  • All intellectual and work property derived from Diagnamed's research activities in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and its orphan drug designation (ODD) for molecular hydrogen in the treatment of ALS by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Michael Frank, chief executive officer of Revive, commented: "This acquisition expands Revive's pipeline to brain disorders. Molecular hydrogen may offer a potential therapeutic option for neurological and mental health disorders. The orphan drug designation granted by the FDA for molecular hydrogen in ALS offers hope to patients and families impacted by this debilitating illness. We are committed to collaborating with leading ALS researchers, patient advocacy groups and regulatory experts to ensure a rigorous and expedited path toward potential approval."

ALS is a progressive neuromuscular disease that attacks nerve cells responsible for controlling voluntary muscle movement, leading to paralysis and, ultimately, respiratory failure, and has a life expectancy of only two to six years after diagnosis. Currently, there is no known cure for ALS. ALS affects approximately 50,000 people in the U.S. and Europe, with over 5,000 new cases diagnosed annually. With limited treatment options available, the FDA's recognition of molecular hydrogen as an orphan drug offers hope to patients and families impacted by this debilitating illness.

Molecular hydrogen, a small molecule with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, has shown early promise in preclinical studies for its ability to mitigate oxidative stress and inflammation -- key factors implicated in ALS progression. The FDA's decision paves the way for Revive to accelerate its development programs with molecular hydrogen.
