$TNXP $VRTX $LXRX if this legislation is approved then it will be HUGE. It should be ILLEGAL to require step edits thru opioids! I live in Congressman Kean Junior’s district and will be in touch. Given he was just at Tonix’s new HQ, he better be on this! 🇺🇸 Alternatives to Prevent Addiction in the Nation (Alternatives to PAIN) Act — H.R.1227 / S.475 Introduced in the 119th Congress with strong momentum (74 cosponsors).  ✔️ Reduce cost-sharing for qualifying non-opioid pain meds under Medicare Part D (e.g., no deductible and lowest tier).  ✔️ Prohibit step therapy & prior authorization for qualifying non-opioid pain drugs (insurers couldn’t force a patient to fail an opioid before a non-opioid).  ✔️ Extend protections to low-income individuals as well.  This bill would improve access to competing non-opioid pain therapies in Medicare Part D by lowering costs and eliminating step therapy/PAs. For patients: fewer barriers use non-opioid drugs. @Hoppanin @RIZZO2332 ☮️

$LXRX A more perfect timeline could not have happened to us: 1. Jan 21st : FDA approved phase 3 Pilavapadin. 2. Jan 27-29 FIREST EVER: INAUGURAL ( meaning this will be a yearly event -quite historical in my view ) : Non-Opioid Pain Therapeutic Summit with $VRTX , $LLY $ABBV and other heavey hitters. 3. On the LAST DAY of the Summit, $LXRX responsibly tells of of their plans for liquidity. Then LATER on that same date, 13 hours later, after hours, we discover, exactly how much. A better timeline cannot exist. It just cannot.

$TNXP Vertex presented at the same summit for their non-opioid analgesic. If the launch goes well, $VRTX could be one of the buyers - or someone else that needs a strong CNS product & pipeline like $GSK or $PFE ? Also wonder if Vertex is the ideal ex-US partner. Tonix can handle the US launch but Europe, Japan, China, and the other regions are a different beast 🐂

$LXRX Those extra 86.5 on the shelf will be more than enough. And we still keep an above two dollar valuation on each share, based on the 1bil $NVO deal as a comp, for LX9851, discounting every single other IP , pipeline we have on top of Pilavapadin. 1. Case Study = Journavx Non Opioid Pain Killer, $VRTX had a HORRIBLE ( Nightmarish, every analyst shitted so so hard on $VRTX, it tanked horribly with Dec Topline) Topline result, in Dec of 2024, then getting a greenlight literally a month later from the FDA ( $VRTX SOARED into the stratosphere on this unexpected FDA approval) . 2. I reiterate, their's was ONLY for moderat to Acute Pain.. $LXRX = Pilavapadin is for CHRONIC Pain, non opioid. This Administration is so anti narcotics, they'll try their damndest to put out into the market, under their administration, any pain killer, that doesn't risk causing addictions, under their watch, administration.

Oppenheimer⬆️ $DNTH's PT to $125 from $62 and reiterated at Outperform. $RNAC $ARGX $NVS AZN $VRTX TAK Oppenheimer said in its note: Dianthus shares have jumped off the starting line this year, up 22% vs. XBI's 5% following CEO Marino Garcia's commentary at January's annual healthcare conference on potential superiority vs. competitor complement inhibitors, and pricing expectations. We caught up with management ahead of the 2026 setup and see substantial value creation ahead. Catalysts begin with mid-year update on claseprubart's Phase 3 CIDP interim analysis followed by Phase 2 MMN data plus a first-look at DNTH212 in healthy volunteers in 2H26. We see little current value assigned to '212/MMN, and despite substantial share appreciation since the MG look, we believe DNTH shares are just beginning their ascent as comfort builds around potentially superior CIDP/MMN profiles, and as visibility into DNTH212's total product profile grows.

$VRTX Or just take Journavx! Oh yeah, it’s priced for ‘rare’ pain…. Of the 51 million adults suffering from chronic pain, recent surveys show three in four endure some degree of disability, leaving many unable to work or function. The causes of chronic pain, from shoulders and backs to knees and feet, have long been debated, with no clear answer coming out on top. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-15506411/researchers-discover-cause-chronic-pain-cure.html Sent from my iPhone
