D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS).

Artificial intelligence has long been seen as a powerful tool for growth. It promised faster work, lower costs, and new business opportunities. But recently, investors began to focus on another side of the story. Instead of asking how companies will benefit from AI, they started asking which companies might suffer because of it. That shift in thinking triggered a broad stock market sell-off. The concern first appeared in software stocks. Investors worried that AI systems could replace many tasks now handled by large enterprise software companies such as Salesforce and ServiceNow. These companies charge businesses high fees for digital services. If AI tools can perform similar tasks faster and at a lower cost, profit margins could shrink. As a result, many investors sold shares in software companies. However, not all analysts believe the sell-off is fully justified. Some argue that company profits remain strong and that the overall economic environment is still supportive. Certain sectors, such as energy and consumer staples, have continued to perform well. The recent market reaction shows that AI is no longer viewed only as an opportunity. It is also seen as a force that could disrupt traditional industries. Investors are adjusting their expectations, and markets are responding to a future that feels both exciting and uncertain. It remains to be seen what level of disruption will also be triggered by even more advanced technologies like quantum computing that firms like D-Wave Quantum Inc.

In oncology, the biggest constraints are not always science. They are often the logistics, the cost of specialized infrastructure, and the difficulty of scaling advanced treatment capacity fast enough to meet demand.

A Two-Track Strategy: Sensitizing Tumors, Modernizing Delivery

LIXTE Biotechnology Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: LIXT) is pursuing a model that tries to improve cancer outcomes from two directions at once. On the therapeutic side, the company’s lead asset is LB-100, a clinical-stage compound designed to inhibit protein phosphatase 2A (“PP2A”), a biological target involved in cellular stress response and DNA repair pathways. LIXTE’s stated strategy is not to replace standard oncology regimens, but to make established modalities work better by reducing tumor resilience under treatment pressure. What makes the current setup more distinctive is that LIXTE also owns a hardware platform. In November 2025, LIXTE announced the acquisition of Liora Technologies Europe Ltd., making it a wholly owned subsidiary. Liora’s LiGHT system, short for Linac for Image Guided Hadron Therapy, equips a proton therapy system that uses electronically controlled beam energy rather than mechanical energy degraders.

LIXTE Biotechnology Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: LIXT) is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing differentiated cancer therapies built around a novel biological target. Rather than introducing standalone treatments, the company is focused on advancing a first-in-class approach designed to enhance the effectiveness of established cancer therapies, addressing persistent challenges that continue to limit outcomes in oncology.

LIXTE’s work centers on improving how chemotherapy and immunotherapy perform in difficult-to-treat cancers with significant unmet medical need. By translating a distinct scientific concept into therapies that can be integrated into existing treatment frameworks, the company aims to expand the reach and impact of current standards of care without requiring wholesale changes to clinical practice.

Alongside internal development, LIXTE has pursued selective strategic actions that extend its capabilities beyond drug development, supporting its evolution into a platform-oriented oncology company spanning both pharmaceutical and technology-driven approaches.

The company is headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida.

Portfolio

LB-100 (PP2A Inhibitor Platform)

LIXTE’s lead clinical candidate, LB-100, is a proprietary small-molecule inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) designed to enhance the activity of chemotherapy and immunotherapy. The compound has demonstrated a favorable safety profile in Phase 1 clinical trials and has been supported by more than 25 published preclinical and translational studies. LB-100 is currently being evaluated in multiple clinical programs targeting solid tumors with limited treatment options.

Ongoing trials include combinations of LB-100 with immunotherapy in ovarian clear cell carcinoma and metastatic MSI-low colon cancer, as well as combination therapy with chemotherapy in advanced soft tissue sarcoma. These studies are being conducted in collaboration with leading academic cancer centers and industry partners, reflecting LIXTE’s emphasis on externally validated clinical execution.

Radiotherapy Platform Expansion (Liora Technologies)

In November 2025, LIXTE expanded beyond pharmaceuticals with the acquisition of Liora Technologies Europe Ltd., adding an electronically controlled proton therapy platform known as the LiGHT System. This acquisition established LIXTE’s entry into radiotherapy, complementing its drug development activities and creating optionality for future recurring revenue models tied to jointly operated treatment centers.

Market Opportunity

LIXTE is targeting cancers where existing therapies show limited durability due to resistance, toxicity constraints, or suboptimal patient response. Chemotherapy and immunotherapy are widely applicable across tumor types but remain constrained by these factors, creating an opportunity for approaches that improve efficacy without proportionally increasing toxicity.

The company’s clinical programs focus on ovarian clear cell carcinoma, metastatic colon cancer, and advanced soft tissue sarcoma, indications characterized by high unmet need and limited effective treatment options. Rather than reshaping oncology care, LIXTE is developing LB-100 to augment existing therapies, an approach that could support wider clinical use within established treatment pathways.

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (TSX: PTM) (NYSE American: PLG)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (TSX: PTM) (NYSE American: PLG).

Despite the recent surge in the price of platinum on commodity markets, major miners are still wary of investing in new projects until the current price increases display signs of staying power. At the moment, platinum is going for just over $2,000 an ounce, having recorded tremendous gains over recent months. Last year, the metal surged 127% to reach new peaks. During a mining conference that was recently held in South Africa, executives expressed a desire to remain cautious at this time as platinum continues to surge. They were of the view that rising costs and previous missteps have taught them to think through any decision before committing to any production increases via reopening mothballed projects or starting new ones. For now, shareholder payouts will continue to take precedence over new investments. Palladium and platinum are mainly used in the automotive sector to make catalytic converters. Demand for these metals tanked as the industry shifted to electric vehicles, but recent headwinds in the electrification movement have turned around the fortunes of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, boosting demand for these metals. South Africa is the main producer of palladium and platinum, and this jurisdiction has faced rising labor and energy prices that have driven miners to institute various measures to keep costs manageable, including layoffs. The current price increases have therefore come as a relief to these pressured miners and they are in no hurry to begin new projects at this time when costs are running high while price increases aren’t assured. It remains to be seen how miners like Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (NYSE American: PLG) (TSX: PTM) view the long-term prospects of platinum and how that could influence their operational decisions.

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (NYSE American: PLG) (TSX: PTM) is the operator of the Waterberg Project, a bulk underground platinum group metals (PGM) deposit discovered by Platinum Group in 2011 and located on the Northern Limb of the Bushveld Complex in South Africa. The Waterberg Project is planned as a fully mechanised platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold mine, including by-product copper and nickel production, and is projected to be one of the largest and lowest cost PGM mines globally.

The project is a joint venture between Platinum Group; integrated PGM producer Impala Platinum Holdings Ltd. (OTCQX: IMPUY); Japanese consortium HJ Platinum, which includes trading house Hanwa Co. and the government-backed Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security (JOGMEC); and local empowerment partner Mnombo Wethu Consultants (Pty) Ltd. Platinum Group has an effective 50.22% interest in the Waterberg Project.

The company’s primary business objective is to advance the Waterberg Project to a development and construction decision. An update to the 2019 Definite Feasibility Study is expected in 2024.

PGMs are essential and precious metals that include platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium, osmium and ruthenium. These metals are known for their purity, high melting points and unique catalytic properties. They are utilized in a number of industrial processes, technologies and commercial applications and play a critical role in autocatalysis and pollution control in the automotive sector. The bulk of global PGMs are mined in Southern Africa and Russia.

The unique properties of PGMs are being applied to various technologies as possible solutions for more efficient energy generation and storage, which may create new demand for PGMs. The company’s battery technology initiative through Lion Battery Technologies Inc., using platinum and palladium in lithium battery technologies, represents one such new opportunity in the high-profile lithium battery research and innovation field.

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. founded Lion Battery Technologies Inc. in partnership with Anglo American Platinum Ltd. (AMS: JNB) to support the use of palladium and platinum in lithium battery applications. Lion Battery has entered into an agreement with Florida International University to further advance a research program that uses platinum and palladium to unlock the potential of Lithium Sulfur (Li-S) battery chemistries.

Platinum Group is headquartered in Vancouver, B.C., and Johannesburg, South Africa.

Waterberg Project

Platinum Group’s sole material mineral property, the Waterberg Project, is presently in process with pre-construction permitting; engineering work, including road upgrade and traffic studies; finalization of power and water infrastructure design; and construction camp design.

The company’s principal product from the Waterberg Project is planned to be a PGM-bearing concentrate. The concentrate will contain economic amounts of six elements comprising platinum, palladium, rhodium, gold, copper and nickel. The company’s partner in the Waterberg Project, Impala Platinum Holdings, has acquired a right of first refusal to enter into an offtake agreement, on commercial arm’s-length terms, for the smelting and refining of mineral products from the Waterberg Project.

The Waterberg project has proven and estimated reserves of 19.5 million ounces of PGMs and gold. When fully operational, the mine is projected to produce more than 400,000 ounces of PGMs annually during the peak period of steady state production. The life of the mine is projected at 45 years.

South Africa’s PGM mining sector remains closely tied to economic developments in the global automotive industry, which in 2022 accounted for approximately 43% of the total global demand for platinum and 82% of the total global demand for palladium.

Market Opportunity

According to a report from Straits Research, a global market and business research firm, the worldwide platinum market had an estimated value of $7.72 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach $11.95 billion by 2031. That represents a CAGR of 5.13% over the forecast period.

Platinum, one of the rarest of precious metals, is about 30 times scarcer than gold. It is crucial to the automotive and electronics industries and is also used to make jewelry. Stricter emissions regulations around the world have led to an increased demand for platinum to be used in catalytic converters to reduce automotive emission, the report states.

A report from Allied Market Research estimated the global palladium market at $16.3 billion in 2021 and projects the market will reach $28.6 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.8% over the period.

Palladium is also used in automotive catalytic converters for reducing emissions and in jewelry, dentistry, watchmaking, blood sugar test strips, aircraft spark plugs, surgical instruments, electrical contacts and musical instruments.

An increase in demand for consumer electronics has driven demand for palladium-based multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) used to store energy in electronic devices such as broadcasting equipment, mobile telephones, computers, electronic lighting and high voltage circuits, according to the report.

LaFleur Minerals’ operations focus on two strategically located assets in the Abitibi Gold Belt: the Swanson Gold Project and the Beacon Gold Mill and Mine. These projects leverage the region’s world-class mining infrastructure and high-grade gold potential to drive the company’s transition to production.

Swanson Gold Project

The Swanson Gold Project spans 16,600 hectares and hosts the Swanson, Bartec, and Jolin gold deposits along a major structural break in the Abitibi Gold Belt. The 2024 Mineral Resource Estimate for the Swanson deposit outlines 123,400 oz of gold in Indicated category (2.1 million tonnes at 1.8 g/t) and 64,500 oz in Inferred category (872,000 tonnes at 2.3 g/t). Located 66 km north of Val-d’Or, the Project is accessible by road and rail and benefits from more than 36,000 meters of historical drilling, along with existing infrastructure including an 80-meter decline portal.

Recent work—including airborne magnetics, soil sampling, and Induced Polarization surveys—has identified multiple high-priority targets and resulted in several high-grade gold assay results, including a grab sample grading 11.71 g/t Au at Jolin, which points to significant upside as the Company prepares to test multiple new zones.

LaFleur has defined over 50 drill targets at Swanson and nearby prospects (Bartec, Jolin, Marimac) and is completing a minimum 5,000-metre diamond drilling beginning in June 2025. LaFleur Minerals has also initiated permitting for a 100,000-tonne surface bulk sample averaging 1.89 g/t Au, which it plans to process at the Beacon Gold Mill as part of a near-term production strategy.

Beacon Gold Mill

LaFleur’s 100%-owned Beacon Gold Mill is a fully refurbished and permitted mill and tailings storage facility capable of processing 750 tonnes per day (tpd), with potential expansion to 1,800 tpd, with access to numerous nearby gold deposits that could be prime sources of ore. Located only 60 km from Swanson, it underwent a $20 million upgrade by Monarch Mining in 2022 and has been under care and maintenance since early 2023. LaFleur is finalizing a C$5-6 million restart plan, ramping up production by late 2025 into early 2026, processing Swanson mineralized material and assessing custom milling opportunities for regional deposits, creating multiple potential revenue streams.

The Beacon Gold Mill is a de-risked, proven asset that benefits from existing infrastructure, including access to roads, power, and skilled labor, and further enhances the overall value proposition of LaFleur by providing a clear path to production and potential revenue-generation.

Market Opportunity

LaFleur Minerals is targeting the gold mining and processing market in Québec’s Abitibi Gold Belt, one of the world’s most productive gold regions. Its fully permitted Beacon Gold Mill, with a 750 tpd capacity and authorization to process 1.8 million tonnes of tailings, is strategically positioned to handle material from LaFleur’s Swanson Gold Project and to offer custom milling for nearby deposits such as Granada Gold. The company projects annual production of over 30,000 ounces of gold once in full production, with potential for significant revenue generation based on prevailing market prices.

Global demand for gold remains robust, driven by geopolitical risk, inflation hedging, and central bank accumulation. The World Gold Council forecasts 3-5% annual demand growth through 2030, with average prices expected between $3,200 and $3,500/oz. Within this environment, Québec’s top-tier mining jurisdiction—ranked fifth globally by the Fraser Institute in 2023—offers streamlined permitting and access to flow-through capital. LaFleur’s low-cost Beacon restart (C$5-6 million) and proximity to more than 100 active and historical mines position the company to fill a growing need for small-to-medium scale custom milling.

At Swanson, LaFleur plans to grow its current 187,900-ounce resource toward 1 million ounces through its 2025 drilling program. This hub-and-spoke strategy, leveraging centralized milling and strong local infrastructure, reduces development risk and strengthens LaFleur’s foothold in one of the most attractive gold belts in the world.

Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSX.V: LG) (OTCQB: LGCXF)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSX.V: LG) (OTCQB: LGCXF).

This article has been disseminated on behalf of Lahontan Gold Corp. and may include paid advertising.

Lahontan Gold (TSXV: LG) (OTCQB: LGCXF) announced additional analytical results from its 2025 maiden drilling program at the West Santa Fe project in Nevada’s Walker Lane, including 48.8 meters grading 0.83 g/t Au Eq in hole WSF25-02R and 45.7 meters grading 0.64 g/t Au Eq in hole WSF25-05R, with mineralization beginning at surface and remaining open to the north and west. Management said the results confirm a 500-by-350-meter surface expression of gold and silver mineralization with thicknesses ranging from approximately 35 to nearly 60 meters, highlighting oxide mineralization geometry that may support potential low strip ratio open pit mining, as the Company awaits final results from the 2025 program and advances planning for follow-up drilling.

Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSX.V: LG) (OTCQB: LGCXF) is a Canadian mine development and exploration company advancing a portfolio of gold and silver assets in Nevada’s Walker Lane, one of the world’s most productive and mining-friendly regions. Through its U.S. subsidiaries, the company controls four gold and silver properties in Nevada, three of which are 100%-owned and one controlled via a low-cost option to acquire full ownership. With a clear near-term path to production, Lahontan is focused on unlocking oxide gold and silver value from past-producing, infrastructure-rich projects.

The company’s mission is to responsibly develop and expand its oxide resources while minimizing capital intensity and maximizing economic returns. Leveraging a strong technical team with a track record of advancing projects and building mines, Lahontan is focused on growing gold and silver resources and hitting permitting milestones across multiple sites. Its strategy prioritizes scalability, efficiency, and timely value realization for shareholders.

By maintaining full project ownership and a capital-light development model, Lahontan Gold is positioned to rapidly transition from development to production.

The company is headquartered in Toronto, Ontario.

Projects

Santa Fe Mine

The 26.4 km² Santa Fe Mine is Lahontan’s flagship asset and core development priority. A past-producing open-pit, heap-leach gold and silver operation, Santa Fe historically yielded more than 359,000 ounces of gold and 702,000 ounces of silver between 1988 and 1995. The site benefits from established infrastructure—including power, water, and road access—and more than 79% of its known resources are unencumbered by royalties.

A 2024 NI 43-101 resource estimate outlines 1.54 million ounces of gold equivalent (AuEq) in the Indicated category and 0.41 million ounces Inferred, all pit-constrained. Oxide resources average among the highest grades in the state and are distributed across five known deposits. A 2025 Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) projects strong economic returns, including an after-tax NPV5% of $200 million, a 34.2% internal rate of return (IRR), and average annual production of approximately 50,000 ounces AuEq over an eight-year mine life.

Permitting is well underway for both the Exploration and Mine Plans of Operation, covering over 12 km² and more than 700 drill holes. The company is targeting construction permits in late 2026 and continues to pursue oxide resource expansion and metallurgical optimization, particularly within the Slab-Calvada corridor.

West Santa Fe

West Santa Fe lies just 13 kilometers from the flagship and is being explored as a potential satellite operation. The project is defined by a shallow, oxide-dominant gold-silver system with a conceptual target of 0.5 to 1.0 million ounces AuEq based on historic drilling and recent surface sampling, which returned up to 2.61 g/t Au and 899 g/t Ag (14.6 g/t AuEq). A 6,300-meter Phase One reverse circulation drill program is scheduled for 2025 to validate historical data and support a maiden resource estimate. Development is streamlined under a low-cost option agreement and a rapid permitting path via Notice of Intent.

Moho and Redlich

The Moho and Redlich projects provide additional longer-term upside within Lahontan’s portfolio. Moho features high-grade, oxidized epithermal veins with historic production at grades of 20–25 g/t Au and 300 g/t Ag. A 2019 core drill program confirmed the presence of high-grade mineralization at depth. Redlich, located along trend from the historic Candelaria silver mine, hosts disseminated Ag mineralization in epithermal veins and hydrothermal breccias but remains untested by drilling. While no near-term programs are currently disclosed, both assets represent future exploration optionality.

Market Opportunity

Lahontan Gold operates in Nevada, consistently ranked the top global mining jurisdiction by the Fraser Institute due to its transparent permitting process, legal stability, and established infrastructure. Nevada produces over 4.5 million ounces of gold annually, generating approximately $9 billion in value, and ranks fifth globally in total gold production.

According to the World Gold Council, total gold demand in Q1 2025 reached 1,206 tonnes, up 1% year-over-year, marking the strongest first quarter since 2016. Central banks added 244 tonnes to reserves, a slight slowdown from the prior quarter but well within the strong buying range observed over the past three years. Meanwhile, silver demand is supported by strong industrial usage in solar panels, electric vehicles, and semiconductors, with long-term deficits forecast in the physical silver market.

With macro-driven demand for gold, technology-driven silver consumption, and strong institutional buying across both metals, Lahontan is uniquely positioned to capitalize through its portfolio of oxide-focused projects in a top-tier jurisdiction—offering near-term production potential and longer-term resource expansion.

Perpetuals.com Ltd. (NASDAQ: PDC) is a publicly traded, regulated digital market infrastructure company enabling derivatives trading through a compliant, API-driven platform. Built as infrastructure rather than a balance-sheet exchange, the company provides brokers, institutions, and trading venues with regulated access to crypto and tokenized derivatives while avoiding custody, credit, and counterparty exposure by design.

The platform addresses a structural gap created as demand for leveraged digital asset exposure has outpaced the availability of compliant market infrastructure, particularly in Europe. Regulatory constraints limit how traditional brokers can legally offer crypto leverage, while many existing trading venues operate outside regulated frameworks. Perpetuals is designed to function within these constraints by combining institutional-grade execution, real-time settlement, and structured product capabilities under an EU-regulated market framework.

By operating as a regulated trading venue and infrastructure provider, Perpetuals enables market participants to access derivatives through transparent and auditable systems rather than offshore or unregulated alternatives.

Platform & Infrastructure

Perpetuals operates a regulated hybrid exchange built on proprietary infrastructure and structured around an EU Multilateral Trading Facility (MTF) framework. The platform is designed as institutional trading infrastructure, incorporating a high-speed matching engine, real-time settlement, built-in compliance and surveillance, and a hybrid architecture that delivers centralized exchange performance with blockchain-based transparency.

The platform is API-native by design, enabling direct integration with CFD brokers, institutional counterparties, and trading venues. Through turnkey APIs, partners can integrate order routing, execution, structured product issuance, market data, settlement, risk management, and compliance reporting, while the platform is designed to avoid custody of client assets and balance-sheet exposure. This infrastructure-first model allows Perpetuals to function as a regulated trading venue rather than a trading counterparty.

On top of this infrastructure, the platform is designed to support crypto spot trading, perpetual futures, futures, options, swaps, and tokenized structured products, including regulated knock-out instruments intended to operate within European regulatory constraints. Perpetuals also incorporates a prediction and insight engine designed to reward accurate market signals while generating datasets used to refine pricing, risk parameters, and trading intelligence across its structured products.

Market Opportunity

Perpetuals operates at the intersection of several large and converging markets, including crypto derivatives, regulated trading infrastructure, CFD brokerage technology, and tokenized financial products. The global crypto perpetual futures market processes approximately $2.18 trillion in monthly trading volume, while Europe’s CFD market generates roughly $17.34 trillion in monthly notional volume from approximately 4.9 million active retail accounts.

European regulatory frameworks restrict CFD brokers from legally offering high-leverage crypto products, creating a significant gap between trader demand and compliant market access. As a result, demand for crypto leverage has outpaced the availability of regulated infrastructure capable of serving brokers and institutional participants. This dynamic has left a large segment of retail and professional trading activity without compliant, onshore solutions.

Perpetuals addresses this gap by enabling regulated knock-out and structured products that allow leveraged crypto exposure without breaching leverage caps. In parallel, the emergence and adoption of tokenized financial instruments and real-world assets have increased demand for compliant, multi-asset trading venues. By operating within a regulated MTF framework and supporting tokenized issuance and trading, Perpetuals enables participation in the ongoing institutional adoption of digital asset markets without reliance on offshore or unregulated systems.

CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP).

Brain tumors may damage surrounding tissue in a more insidious way than previously understood. New research from the University of Notre Dame shows that chronic pressure from an expanding tumor does not simply crush nearby neurons. It activates an internal self-destruction program that pushes those cells toward death. Neurons form the backbone of thought, movement and sensation. When they die, the brain cannot easily replace them. That loss often leads to cognitive decline, motor impairment and sensory deficits seen in patients with aggressive brain cancers and traumatic injuries. Datta described the work as an effort to bring mechanics into the center of brain disease research, arguing that physical forces are often overlooked despite shaping how cells behave. Patzke added that understanding why neurons are so vulnerable under compression is essential if scientists hope to prevent permanent neurological damage. The findings, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, point toward new drug targets aimed at blocking the self-destruct signals before widespread neuron loss occurs. For patients facing brain tumors, that approach could one day mean preserving function even when a cure remains out of reach. With advancements being recorded by companies like CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP) in their efforts to develop novel drugs targeting different brain cancers, the progress being made in understanding the mechanics of how tumor progression impacts healthy brain tissue is a big step forward as it could lead to a more holistic approach to treating brain tumors. 

CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP) is a clinical stage biotechnology company specializing in the development of novel treatments for primary and metastatic cancers of the brain and central nervous system.

The company was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in Houston, Texas.

Organ Targeted Therapeutics

The company’s lead drug candidate, Berubicin, is proposed for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (“GBM”), an aggressive and incurable form of brain cancer. Berubicin also has potential to treat other central nervous system malignancies. Based on limited clinical data, Berubicin appears to be the first anthracycline to cross the blood brain barrier in the adult brain, and it was the subject of a successful Phase 1 study which found the MDT and produced efficacy data as well.

CNS holds a worldwide exclusive license to the Berubicin chemical compound. The company has acquired all requisite data and know-how from Reata Pharmaceuticals Inc. related to a completed Phase I clinical trial of Berubicin in malignant brain tumors. In this trial, 44% of patients experienced a statistically significant improvement in clinical benefit. In 2017, CNS entered into a collaboration and asset purchase agreement with Reata.

CNS intends to explore the potential of Berubicin to treat other diseases, including pancreatic and ovarian cancers and lymphoma. The company is also examining plans to develop combination therapies that include Berubicin.

CNS estimates that more than $25 million in private capital and grants were invested in Berubicin prior to the company’s $9.8 million IPO in November 2019.

CNS intends to submit an IND for Berubicin during the fourth quarter of 2020 and expects to commence a Phase II clinical trial of Berubicin for the treatment of GBM in the U.S. in Q1 2021. A sub-licensee partner was awarded a $6 million EU/Polish National Center for Research and Development grant to undertake a Phase II trial of Berubicin in adults and a first-ever Phase I trial in pediatric GBM patients in Poland in 2021.

The company’s second drug candidate, WP1244, is a novel DNA binding agent licensed from the MD Anderson Cancer Center. In preclinical studies, WP1244 proved to be 500-times more potent than the chemotherapeutic agent, daunorubicin, in inhibiting tumor cell proliferation. The company has entered into a sponsored research agreement with the MD Anderson Cancer Center to further the development of WP1244.

CNS Pharmaceuticals recently engaged U.S.-based Pharmaceutics International Inc. and Italian BSP Pharmaceuticals SpA for the production of the Berubicin drug product. The company has implemented a dual-track manufacturing strategy to mitigate COVID-19-related risks, diversify its supply chain and provide for localized availability of Berubicin. CNS has already completed synthesis of Berubicin’s active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and has shipped the API to both manufacturers in order to prepare an injectable form of Berubicin for clinical use.

Global Brain Tumor Therapeutics Market

The high recurrence rate of malignant brain tumors is due to reappearance of focal masses, indicating that a sub-population of tumor cells in these cancers may be insensitive to current therapies and may be responsible for reinitiating tumor growth. This necessitates the development of newer drugs in the market that demonstrate greater efficacy in treating such aggressive cancers.

A global increase in neurological disorders has placed increased attention on cancers of the brain over the past decade. Neurological disorders are becoming one of the most prevalent types of disorders, due to longer life expectancy, greater exposure to infection and an increasingly sedentary lifestyle. Because few treatments for primary and metastatic cancers of the brain exist, costs are high and have acted as a restraint for the brain tumor therapeutics market.

Despite progress in surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapeutic strategies, effective treatments for brain cancer are limited by a lack of specific therapies for the brain and the difficulty in transporting therapeutic compounds across the blood brain barrier. Therefore, there is a significant need for novel and effective therapeutic drugs and strategies that prolong survival and improve quality of life for brain tumor patients.

Several companies are making significant investments into R&D, which is expected to bring more treatment options to the market in the near future. Industry reports consistently project continued growth in the market.

One report estimates that the global brain tumor therapeutics market will reach a valuation of $2.74 billion in 2023, with the market expected to register a CAGR of 11% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2023. Another report projects that the global brain tumor therapeutics market will reach $3.4 billion by 2025, up from $2.25 billion in 2019 (https://nnw.fm/eDUjp).

Market Opportunity

The global sports betting industry is undergoing rapid expansion as digital adoption accelerates and new markets open to regulation. According to Grand View Research, the sports betting market was valued at $100.9 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach $187.39 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 11% from 2025 to 2030. This growth is fueled by increased internet penetration, widespread mobile usage, and rising interest in real-time, interactive fan experiences.

Beyond sports betting, SEGG Media also operates in the high-growth arenas of streaming, esports, and AI-powered content delivery. These adjacent markets are seeing double-digit global growth as fans demand more immersive, on-demand, and participatory forms of entertainment. With its diversified platform and strategic positioning across three converging verticals, SEGG Media is built to capitalize on multiple long-term secular trends and unlock scalable revenue opportunities.

Leadership Team

Matthew McGahan, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, joined the company in October 2022. Since then, he has played a central role in stabilizing operations, restructuring the organization, and guiding its rebrand to SEGG Media. McGahan brings a mix of entrepreneurial drive and philanthropic leadership, having founded the UK-based charity Mask Our Heroes during the COVID-19 pandemic and previously built and sold the Harley-Davidson dealership Magic Automotive Group.

Tim Scoffham, CEO of Sports.com Media and Lottery.com International, brings over 20 years of leadership experience across gaming, media, and digital sports entertainment. Appointed following a successful consultancy period, Scoffham now leads SEGG’s global growth strategy for its iGaming and sports media divisions.
