Item 8.01. | Other Events. |
On February 20, 2026, Fennec Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) announced that real-world data supporting the potential use of PEDMARK® (sodium thiosulfate injection) in adults with head and neck cancers were presented at the 2026 Multidisciplinary Head and Neck Cancers Symposium held February 19–21, 2026.
The data, derived from a retrospective review of 15 adult patients, indicated that PEDMARK® administered at least six hours after cisplatin was feasible and well tolerated, with no disruption to cisplatin-based treatment delivery observed.
PEDMARK® is approved in the United States to reduce the risk of ototoxicity associated with cisplatin in pediatric patients one month of age and older with localized, non-metastatic solid tumors. Its safety and efficacy in adults with head and neck cancers have not been established.
A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The information contained in this Item 8.01, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
