**Telomir Pharmaceuticals Demonstrates Broad Tumor Cell Mortality in Human Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Models**

*Iron-rescue experiments confirm tumor cell mortality is mechanistically driven, not nonspecific cytotoxicity.*

 

On February 17, 2026, Telomir Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "Company") announced new preclinical in vitro data evaluating its investigational compound Telomir-1 (Telomir-Zn) in human triple-negative breast cancer ("TNBC") cell lines.

The Company reported that Telomir-Zn reduced viable tumor cell counts across multiple human TNBC models representing biologically distinct molecular subtypes. Specifically:

● **MDA-MB-468 (Basal-A / EGFR-high):** Near-complete tumor cell mortality was observed at 72 hours at evaluated concentrations.

● **HCC70 (Basal-like):** A significant partial reduction in viable tumor cells was observed at 72 hours.

● **MDA-MB-231 (Claudin-low / mesenchymal):** A significant partial reduction in viable tumor cells was observed at 72 hours.

The Company further reported that the addition of supplemental iron attenuated Telomir-Zn–induced tumor cell mortality across completed models. The Company interprets these findings as supporting an iron-dependent mechanism consistent with previously disclosed intracellular metal-modulating activity.

Two additional TNBC cell lines, BT-549 (mesenchymal-like) and HCC1806 (basal-like), are currently under evaluation.

The Company also referenced prior zebrafish xenograft studies in which Telomir-Zn demonstrated statistically significant reductions in tumor growth and metastasis in select TNBC models.

The Company stated that it is completing additional TNBC subtype evaluations, preparing a TNBC mouse xenograft study in a mammalian system, and continuing IND-enabling activities. As previously disclosed, the Company anticipates submitting an Investigational New Drug (IND) application in the first quarter of 2026.

The Company has previously reported completed IND-enabling GLP safety and toxicology studies in rats and dogs, in which no treatment-related adverse toxicity was observed.
