HOUSTON, Oct. 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Moleculin Biotech, Inc.
(Nasdaq: MBRX) (“Moleculin” or the “Company”) today announced that it has released the next segment on its CEO Corner, a platform featuring Walter Klemp, Chief Executive Officer.
In this episode of CEO Corner, Moleculin Biotech Chairman and CEO Walter Klemp discusses the progress of the Company’s Phase 2/3 MIRACLE trial evaluating Annamycin in combination with high-dose cytarabine (HiDAC) for patients with second-line relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The discussion highlights the completion of enrollment in Part A, encouraging interim efficacy results, Annamycin’s potential to address treatment resistance and cardiac safety concerns associated with conventional anthracyclines, and the anticipated full 90-patient Part A data readout in the first quarter of 2027. Mr. Klemp also outlines the next steps toward the pivotal Part B expansion and the broader potential for Annamycin across AML and other cancers treated with anthracyclines.

About Moleculin Biotech, Inc.
Moleculin Biotech, Inc. is a Phase 3 clinical stage pharmaceutical company advancing a pipeline of therapeutic candidates addressing hard-to-treat tumors and viruses. The Company’s lead program, Annamycin (also known as naxtarubicin), has shown to be an efficacious and well tolerated anthracycline designed to avoid multidrug resistance mechanisms and to lack the cardiotoxicity common with currently prescribed anthracyclines. Annamycin is currently in development for the treatment of relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and soft tissue sarcoma (STS) lung metastases.
The Company is conducting the MIRACLE (

valuation) Trial (MB-108), a pivotal, adaptive design, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2/3 trial evaluating Annamycin in combination with cytarabine (also referred to as “Ara-C”), together referred to as AnnAraC, for the treatment of relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Following a successful Phase 1B/2 study (MB-106), with input from the FDA, the Company believes it has substantially de-risked the development pathway toward a potential approval for Annamycin for the treatment of AML. This study remains subject to appropriate future filings with potential additional feedback from the FDA and their foreign equivalents.
Additionally, the Company is developing WP1066, an Immune/Transcription Modulator capable of inhibiting p-STAT3 and other oncogenic transcription factors while also stimulating a natural immune response, targeting brain tumors, pancreatic and other cancers. Moleculin also has in its pipeline a portfolio of antimetabolites, including WP1122 for the potential treatment of pathogenic viruses, as well as certain cancer indications.
