About the HOPE-3 Study

HOPE-3 is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating Deramiocel in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The study enrolled 106 patients, randomized to receive Deramiocel or placebo administered intravenously every three months over a 12-month treatment period. HOPE-3 met its primary endpoint, with Deramiocel slowing decline in upper limb function by 54 percent versus placebo as measured by Performance of the Upper Limb (PUL) version 2.0 (p=0.03). One-year results were published in The Lancet in July 2026. Patients who completed the randomized portion of the study were eligible to continue receiving Deramiocel in an open-label extension.

About Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe, X-linked genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle degeneration affecting the skeletal, respiratory, and cardiac muscles. It is caused by the absence of functional dystrophin, a key structural protein in muscle cells. DMD affects approximately 15,000 individuals in the United States and primarily impacts boys. Over time, deterioration of the heart muscle leads to cardiomyopathy and heart failure, the leading cause of death in DMD. There is no cure, and treatment options remain limited.

About Deramiocel

Deramiocel (CAP-1002) consists of allogeneic cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs), a rare population of cardiac cells that have been shown in preclinical and clinical studies to exert immunomodulatory and anti-fibrotic actions in the preservation of skeletal and cardiac muscle function in muscular dystrophies such as DMD. CDCs act by secreting extracellular vesicles known as exosomes, which target macrophages and alter their expression profile to adopt a healing rather than pro-inflammatory phenotype. For the treatment of DMD, Deramiocel holds Orphan Drug, RMAT and Rare Pediatric Disease designations in the U.S., and Orphan Drug and ATMP designations in Europe. The Rare Pediatric Disease designation may qualify Capricor for a Priority Review Voucher upon approval.

Capricor Therapeutics Presents Positive HOPE-3 Open-Label Extension Data on Upper Limb Function in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy at 2026 World Muscle Society Congress

-24-Month Crossover Analysis: Patients Starting Deramiocel After a Year on Placebo Slowed Upper Limb Decline by 76% Compared with Their Own Prior Year-

-At 24 Months, Both Groups Showed Slower Decline in Upper Limb Function Than Natural History Predicts-

-Data Included in Deramiocel BLA Major Amendment; PDUFA Target Action Date November 22, 2026-

-Webinar Scheduled for October 7, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. ET in Collaboration with PPMD to Discuss the Data-

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Capricor Therapeutics (NASDAQ: CAPR), a biotechnology company developing transformative cell and exosome-based therapeutics for the treatment of rare diseases, today announced positive new data from its ongoing HOPE-3 open-label extension (OLE) study for its lead asset, Deramiocel, for the treatment of upper limb impairment in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The data were highlighted in a late-breaking poster presentation at the 31st Annual Congress of the World Muscle Society (WMS) in Hiroshima, Japan, supporting HOPE-3’s previously reported 12-month results, which were also presented in a separate oral session on Deramiocel's musculoskeletal and cardiac efficacy.

Key results from the late-breaking abstract are summarized below.

HOPE-3 Open-Label Extension: Upper Limb Function (PUL 2.0)

ITT population: 106 randomized; 98 entered the OLE (49 per arm). Negative values indicate decline. 95% CIs are two-sided. No alpha was allocated to these open-label analyses, and the extension was not powered for Month 24 comparisons.

aLeast-squares mean change from a mixed model for repeated measures, with each year measured from its own starting point (Day 0 or Month 12) and adjusted for starting score, cohort, site and slow-progressor status.

bGroups are named by original randomized assignment.

cDifference as a percentage of the Year 1 decline on placebo.

dObserved mean change (unadjusted) vs a natural history model (Michaëls 2025; Niks 2026) that predicts each patient’s decline from baseline score, age and ambulatory status. In its untreated year, the Placebo arm tracked the model (−2.7 observed vs −2.9 predicted at Month 12) and a published non-ambulant cohort (about −2.7 points per year; Coratti 2025). Descriptive only; no matching or statistical testing.

ePatients assessed at Month 24: n=42 (Placebo arm), n=40 (Deramiocel arm).

“Upper limb function is critical to quality of life for young men with DMD because it is directly tied to their independence,” said Craig McDonald, MD, Principal Investigator of the HOPE-3 trial at UC Davis Health. “When the young men who had been declining on placebo started Deramiocel, their rate of upper limb loss dropped by roughly 75% in their first year of treatment. Just as important, patients who were on Deramiocel both years declined at a similar rate in year 1 and year 2, which suggests that the slower decline was triggered by starting treatment, not the passage of time. Being able to follow the same young man before and after he starts treatment is a powerful way to see a treatment effect, and what we saw was consistent with the randomized, placebo-controlled period. As a clinician seeing these patients, I have had very little to offer them that could meaningfully slow the progression of upper limb functional loss once they were non-ambulant. These data suggest there could be a way to treat this aspect of the disease. Their arms are how they feed themselves, control their wheelchairs and use their phones, and how they stay independent. Time is muscle, and slowing that loss means more time doing the things that matter most to them.”

“These results add to a growing body of evidence for Deramiocel,” said Linda Marbán, Ph.D., CEO of Capricor. “What we saw in the HOPE-3 open-label extension aligns with our previous clinical studies, which together show the same pattern across multiple years of treatment. The FDA has received these data as part of the recent major amendment to the Deramiocel Biologics License Application, along with extensive sensitivity and robustness analyses we produced to support the results of the HOPE-3 randomized clinical trial. We will continue to work with the FDA through the remainder of the review, ahead of the November 22, 2026, PDUFA target action date.”

Lilly's Omvoh (mirikizumab-mrkz) meets primary endpoint of clinical remission and is the first IL-23p19 inhibitor to report one-year Phase 3 results in pediatric ulcerative colitis

Building on Omvoh's approved use and durable efficacy in adults, Lilly plans to submit these data to global regulators to support a potential label expansion for pediatric ulcerative colitis

More than 80% of patients responded to Omvoh induction, and half of responders, ages 6 to 17, were in clinical remission at one year in Phase 3 SHINE-2 study

In key secondary outcomes, 71.2% of patients who responded to Omvoh induction achieved symptomatic remission and 50% achieved corticosteroid-free clinical remission at one year without surgery

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced positive late-breaking one-year results from the Phase 3 SHINE-2 study of Omvoh (mirikizumab-mrkz) in pediatric patients ages 6 to 17 with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC), including clinical, symptomatic and endoscopic outcomes. In the single-arm, open-label study, 81% of patients achieved clinical response to Omvoh induction at Week 12. Among responders, 50% achieved clinical remission at Week 52, meeting the study's primary endpoint.* Omvoh is the first IL-23p19 inhibitor to report one-year Phase 3 results in pediatric UC. These results were presented as a late-breaking oral presentation at United European Gastroenterology (UEG) Week 2026.1

Omvoh is currently approved for adults with moderately to severely active UC. The safety and effectiveness of Omvoh in pediatric patients are currently being evaluated in clinical studies. Lilly plans to submit these data to global regulators to support a potential label expansion. If approved, Omvoh would be the first IL-23p19 inhibitor indicated for pediatric UC.

"For children and adolescents, the persistent bowel urgency, abdominal pain and unpredictability of ulcerative colitis can make a normal childhood feel out of reach, especially when symptoms return after previous treatments," said Mark Genovese, M.D., senior vice president of Lilly Immunology development. "Already approved for adults with ulcerative colitis, Omvoh is the first IL-23p19 inhibitor to report one-year Phase 3 results in pediatric ulcerative colitis. We look forward to working with regulators to potentially make Omvoh available to children and adolescents living with this disease, who continue to face substantial disease burden and ongoing unmet needs."

Unmet need in pediatric ulcerative colitis

UC affects more than 26,000 children and adolescents in the U.S.3 Although relatively uncommon, pediatric-onset UC is often more extensive and severe than disease that begins in adulthood.4 Up to half of children treated with corticosteroids become dependent on them, and up to one-third require surgery within a year.4

SHINE-2 evaluated Omvoh in a pediatric population with high disease burden and significant unmet need, including 54% of enrolled patients who had previously experienced biologic treatment failure. Half entered the study with severe disease activity as measured by the Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index.1

"For children with ulcerative colitis, every year spent relying on corticosteroids or facing the possibility of surgery can have important implications for growth, development and quality of life," said Marla C. Dubinsky, M.D., Professor of Pediatrics and Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Chief of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition at Mount Sinai Kravis Children's Hospital. "Considering these challenges, the finding that half of the pediatric patients who responded to Omvoh achieved corticosteroid-free clinical remission without surgery at one year is particularly meaningful, especially in a population where many patients had previously experienced treatment failure with advanced therapies."

One-year results from SHINE-2 in children and adolescents with ulcerative colitis

Of the patients enrolled in SHINE-2, 81% achieved clinical response at Week 12. Among responders, ages 6 to 17, efficacy was sustained across multiple clinical, symptomatic and endoscopic outcomes at Week 52, including:

- 50% clinical remission (primary endpoint)*

- 50% corticosteroid-free clinical remission without surgery†

- 73.1% clinical response‡

- 71.2% symptomatic remission¶

- 53.8% endoscopic improvement#

- 44.2% endoscopic remission**

The pediatric Week 52 clinical remission rate was similar to that observed among adult Week 12 responders treated with Omvoh in LUCENT-2 (50.7%).1 This descriptive observation was separate from the primary endpoint analysis and should not be interpreted as a direct comparison between studies.

These one-year findings build on the early clinical, symptomatic and endoscopic improvements observed at Week 12, which were presented as a late-breaking oral presentation at the American College of Gastroenterology 2026 Annual Scientific Meeting.5

Safety findings from SHINE-2

Through Week 52 in SHINE-2, the safety profile of Omvoh in children and adolescents was consistent with its established safety profile in adults, with no new safety signals identified. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events in SHINE-2 were upper respiratory tract infection, injection site reaction, UC, headache, nasopharyngitis and anemia. Most treatment-emergent adverse events were mild to moderate in severity. Through Week 52, four patients (6.3%) experienced a serious adverse event; none was considered related to study treatment. Two patients (3.2%) discontinued treatment because of UC flare. No deaths, malignancies, opportunistic infections or growth-related safety concerns were reported through Week 52.1

Omvoh has received regulatory approvals for the treatment of moderately to severely active UC and moderately to severely active Crohn's disease in adults and has been approved in 47 countries around the world. In UC, Omvoh is also approved as a single-injection maintenance regimen in several countries around the world including the U.S., EU, Canada and Japan.

Lilly continues to study mirikizumab in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease, including a long-term extension study in UC and Crohn's disease (NCT04844606) and an ongoing Phase 3 study in pediatric Crohn's disease (NCT05509777). Lilly is also evaluating mirikizumab through combination approaches and novel mechanisms aimed at delivering breakthrough induction efficacy while maintaining long-term remission and safety. These include studies in UC with eltrekibart (NCT06598943), a monoclonal antibody that targets neutrophil-driven inflammation, and with zotemtegrast (NCT07186101), an oral α4β7 integrin inhibitor. In Crohn's disease, Lilly is studying mirikizumab in combination with an FXR agonist (NCT07483099). The COMMIT-UC (NCT06937086) and COMMIT-CD (NCT06937099) trials are investigating the concomitant use of mirikizumab and an incretin-based therapy in adults with UC or Crohn's disease and obesity or overweight with at least one additional weight-related comorbid condition.

About SHINE-2

SHINE-2 is a Phase 3, multicenter, single-arm, open-label study evaluating mirikizumab in pediatric patients with moderately to severely active UC. A total of 63 participants, ages 4 to 17, were enrolled and received weight-based intravenous induction every four weeks for three doses (300 mg for patients >40 kg; 5 mg/kg for patients ≤40 kg). At Week 12, 52 patients entered the maintenance period as clinical responders and received weight-based subcutaneous mirikizumab every four weeks through Week 52. The primary endpoint was evaluated against a pre-specified benchmark derived from the adult placebo remission rate in the Phase 3 LUCENT-2 study.* The Week 52 efficacy results are reported for the Week 12 responder population (N=52; ages 6 to 17); safety results are based on all enrolled patients (N=63).

Patients completing SHINE-2 may be eligible to continue in SHINE-ON, an ongoing long-term extension study evaluating mirikizumab in pediatric patients with UC or Crohn's disease.

About Omvoh

Omvoh (mirikizumab-mrkz) is an interleukin-23p19 (IL-23p19) antagonist indicated for the treatment of moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease in adults. Omvoh selectively targets the p19 subunit of IL-23 and inhibits the IL-23 pathway. Inflammation due to over-activation of the IL-23 pathway plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease.2  The safety and effectiveness of Omvoh have not been established in pediatric patients.

Omvoh and its delivery device base are trademarks owned by Eli Lilly and Company.

Endnotes and References

*Clinical remission was defined as stool frequency (SF) subscore=0 or 1, rectal bleeding (RB) subscore=0 and endoscopic subscore (ES)=0 or 1 (excluding friability). The primary endpoint was met by exceeding a pre-specified benchmark based on the placebo remission rate in adults from the Phase 3 LUCENT-2 study. The lower bound of the 80% credible interval for the Week 52 pediatric remission rate among Week 12 responders (42.8%) exceeded the upper bound of the 90% credible interval for the adult placebo remission rate in LUCENT-2 (32.6%). Week 52 efficacy was assessed among the 52 patients who entered the maintenance period as Week 12 clinical responders, based on response status recorded by study sites.  

†Corticosteroid-free clinical remission without surgery: clinical remission at Week 52 without surgery, and no corticosteroid use for at least 12 weeks prior to Week 52. 

‡Clinical response: a decrease in the MMS of ≥2 points and ≥30% decrease from induction baseline plus a decrease of ≥1 point in the RB subscore from induction baseline or an RB subscore of 0 or 1.

LEWES, Del., Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- HiBy has officially launched the RS2 II, a compact portable Hi-Fi player featuring the company's third-generation DARWIN III audio architecture, the same architecture used in the flagship RS8 II. Designed for audiophiles seeking flagship-level sound in a smaller and more portable form, the RS2 II combines HiBy's proprietary R2R technology, a fully balanced analog stage, HiByOS, and flexible connectivity.

At the heart of the RS2 II is the DARWIN III architecture, powered by a newly developed FPGA digital engine featuring more than 35K logic units and 40 high-speed, high-performance DSP units. This processing platform provides the computing power required for HiBy's adjustable pure FIR filters, multiple DARWIN filters, harmonic control, NOS/OS switching, and native DSD processing.

Digital-to-analog conversion is handled by a high-precision R2R resistor network. High-speed electronic switches drive the resistor network to convert digital signals into corresponding analog voltage levels, helping reduce high-frequency noise introduced by digital modulation while delivering a natural, transparent, and musical presentation.

The analog stage uses a four-stage OPA1612 signal chain. One OPA1612 performs low-pass filtering after the DAC stage, another provides current amplification after volume control, while two additional OPA1612 devices form a fully balanced voltage amplification stage. At the headphone output, four flagship-grade OPA1622 amplifiers provide independent four-channel current amplification for improved dynamics, control, and compatibility with multi-driver earphones.

The RS2 II is also more compact than its predecessor. The standard aluminum alloy edition weighs just 156g and features a dark green finish with a houndstooth-pattern rear panel. Compared with the original RS2, the display area has increased by 45% and resolution by 122%. The new 3.55-inch 480 × 800 display, together with narrower bezels, provides a significantly improved visual experience. An upgraded X1600E dual-core platform further enhances system responsiveness.

Running HiBy's dedicated HiByOS, the RS2 II supports coaxial output, Line Out, and USB DAC functionality. Dual microSD card slots support up to 4TB of total expandable storage.

The HiBy RS2 II Aluminum Alloy Edition is priced at US$439 and is available as a standard production model. The Limited Brass Edition is priced at US$549 and is expected to become available in October, with worldwide production restricted to just 500 units.

INSPIRED LAUNCHES HAPPY MONEY HENS™, AN EGG-CITING NEW GAME

22 July 2026 – Inspired Entertainment, Inc. (“Inspired” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: INSE), a leading B2B provider of gaming content, systems, and solutions, today announced the launch of Happy Money Hens™ in the UK B3/LBO market, with a Cat C release scheduled for autumn.

Happy Money Hens brings a fresh farmyard theme to the reels, combining vibrant visuals with feature-rich gameplay. Featuring Inspired’s proven Triple Hit Combo mechanic, the game delivers engaging gameplay through pseudo-persistent bags and dynamic feature combinations. Building on the success of its predecessor, Zeus Legends of Olympus, Happy Money Hens.

Happy Money Hens builds on the familiar Win & Spin bonus enhanced by three Feature Pots, each linked to a coloured hen. Every Hen Symbol collected adds to its matching Feature Pot, giving players the chance to activate powerful bonus features within the Win & Spin Bonus. Landing multiple Hen Symbols increases the chance of triggering one or more features, with combined activations unlocking even bigger rewards.

The Blue Hen can award, double coins either as matching cash values or Pot Fill coins. The Red Hen can award Pot Fill symbols that collect letters towards one of four jackpot prizes; Mini, Minor, Major and Grand, with the opportunity to collect double letters when combined with the Blue Hen’s double feature.

The Golden Hen can boost the value of one or more cash coins on active or inactive rows, increasing prizes up to £100. It can also combine with either or both of the other Hen features, for more rewarding gameplay.

The Win & Spin Bonus begins on a 5×3 grid of mini reels, with four additional locked rows waiting to be unlocked. Each locked row features a countdown that decreases whenever coins land on active rows, gradually opening additional reel positions and creating more chances to win. The bonus starts with three lives that reset whenever a coin lands on an active row. The feature ends when all lives have been exhausted, awarding all cash coins collected on unlocked rows, while Pot Fill prizes are awarded immediately.

The Dual Wheel Gamble provides an additional opportunity to boost winnings, allowing players to either increase their winnings by up to 10x or trigger the Win & Spin Bonus.

“We’re delighted to bring Happy Money Hens to our UK retail customers,” said Ian Shreeve, Vice President and General Manager Gaming Sales. “Building on the success of Zeus Legends of Olympus and featuring our proven Triple Hit Combo and Win & Spin mechanics, Happy Money Hens introduces three bonus features that work together to deliver rewarding gameplay and exciting bonus combinations. With its fun farmyard theme and feature-rich design , we’re confident it will be a popular addition to gaming venues across the UK””

INSPIRED SPONSORS MIDNIGHT MAYHEM AT ICE BARCELONA 2027, BACKING ROBIN HUTCHISON IN CHARITY BOXING EVENT

AUGUST 6, 2026 – Inspired Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: INSE), a leading B2B provider of gaming content, technology, hardware, systems and solutions, has announced it will be the Platinum Impact Partner sponsor of Midnight Mayhem, the charitable boxing event organised by Behind the Gloves Ltd, taking place during ICE Barcelona 2027.

Bringing together 18 senior leaders from across the global gaming industry, Midnight Mayhem will see participants step into the ring on 19th January 2027, following months of intensive training, all in support of charitable causes. The initiative aims to raise more than €150,000, with every fighter selecting a charity close to their heart.

As part of its sponsorship, Inspired is proud to be backing Robin Hutchison, Chief Commercial Officer at London-based media agency, Square in the Air. A respected industry veteran, Robin previously held roles at Entain, including Coral and Ladbrokes, and will be raising funds for Parkinson’s UK in honour of close family members.

Robin Hutchison, Chief Commercial Officer at Square in the Air, said: “I’m incredibly proud to be taking part in Midnight Mayhem, with Inspired backing me in the ring and throughout my journey. My inspiration is my dad and uncle, who live with Parkinson’s, so this is far more than just stepping into a boxing ring. It’s an opportunity to raise vital funds and awareness for my chosen charity, Parkinson’s UK, while giving something back to families facing similar challenges. The months ahead will be tough, but I’m ready to give everything I have and make every punch count for a cause that means so much to me.”

Funds raised through the initiative will support a range of additional charitable organisations, including CHIPS Charity, which provides powered wheelchairs to children with severe mobility challenges; The Oliver’s Wish Foundation, which supports children and young people facing adversity; and Support Our Paras, the Parachute Regiment and Airborne Forces charity. Proceeds will also benefit the charities personally selected by each fighter, with the allocation of funds overseen by an independent charity advisory board.

Claire Osborne, Managing Director of Interactive at Inspired Entertainment, said: “Midnight Mayhem perfectly reflects the spirit of our industry coming together to make a genuine difference while having a great time! We are incredibly excited to support the event as the Platinum Impact Partner and to sponsor Robin on what will undoubtedly be a tough but inspiring journey. His commitment to raising funds for Parkinson’s UK is deeply personal, and we’re looking forward to cheering him on as he trains, fundraises and ultimately steps into the ring. I have no doubt this will be one of the standout events of ICE Barcelona 2027.”

Midnight Mayhem is affiliated with WBC Cares UK, the charitable arm of the World Boxing Council, reinforcing its commitment to creating lasting social impact through the power of sport.

Lee McFarland, Founder of Behind the Gloves, said: “We’re delighted to welcome Inspired as our Platinum Impact Partner for Midnight Mayhem 2027. This event is about more than just boxing. It’s about bringing our industry together to challenge ourselves, support one another and raise life-changing funds for incredible causes. 18 industry leaders have committed to stepping into the ring, most of whom have never worn a pair of boxing gloves before. Each one will dedicate months of hard work to training and fundraising. With the support of partners like Inspired, we’re confident we can achieve our ambitious fundraising goal and make a meaningful difference to countless lives.”
