Ways to help support your child's mental health
Show your child unconditional love. Let them know that no matter what, you love them. You want them to feel secure and know they can depend on family. Let them know you'll love them regardless of what they accomplish or what they may fail at. Always encourage them to try again.
Support your child's self-esteem. Praise their efforts; not their achievements. Again, it's OK to fail. Just try again. Encourage your kids to try new things but do set realistic goals. You can't expect them to become a champion figure skater overnight.
Block time in your child's schedule for play. They need to have some fun. They need playmates and they need playtime with their parents too. Children learn through play, so don't treat it as a frivolous time. Play is an important learning experience as well as a fun time.
Be Firm and consistent with discipline. Don't nag your children, don't threaten, and don't bribe. Be clear and concise about what you expect and what the consequences will be if children don't listen. Then they'll know what to expect from you.
Provide a safe and secure home for your children. Talk to your children about their fears and find out the root cause. And no matter how trivial their fear may seem, don't make fun of it. The monster under the bed is real to a child. Help ease their fear by leaving a night light on. Make them feel secure.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- RenovoRx, Inc. ('RenovoRx' or the 'Company') (Nasdaq: RNXT), a life sciences company developing innovative targeted oncology therapies and commercializing RenovoCath ®, a patented, FDA-cleared drug-delivery device, today announced that Shaun Bagai, Chief Executive Officer, will present at the H.C. Wainwright 27 th Annual Global Investment Conference. The conference will be held at the Lotte New York Palace Hotel in New York City, September 8-10, 2025. Mr. Bagai will be conducting a virtual presentation, which will be available for the duration of the conference, and afterwards on the Company's IR website at Mr. Bagai will discuss RenovoRx's ongoing commercialization efforts and the organic revenue growth reflecting the strong clinical need and market demand for RenovoCath as a standalone targeted drug-delivery product among both new and existing customers. Mr. Bagai's presentation will also highlight the latest developments in RenovoRx's ongoing Phase III TIGeR-PaC clinical trial, including the Data Monitoring Committee's (DMC) recent recommendation to continue the trial following its review of the second pre-planned interim analysis which was triggered by the 52 nd death. The TIGeR-PaC trial is evaluating RenovoRx's novel drug-device combination oncology product candidate (intra-arterial gemcitabine delivered via RenovoCath, known as IAG) for the treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC). Presentation Details: To schedule a one-on-one investor meeting with Mr. Bagai, please contact KCSA Strategic Communications at RenovoRx@ About RenovoCath Based on its FDA clearance, RenovoCath ® is intended for the isolation of blood flow and delivery of fluids, including diagnostic and/or therapeutic agents, to selected sites in the peripheral vascular system. RenovoCath is also indicated for temporary vessel occlusion in applications including arteriography, preoperative occlusion, and chemotherapeutic drug infusion. For further information regarding our RenovoCath Instructions for Use ('IFU'), please see: About RenovoRx, Inc. RenovoRx, Inc. (Nasdaq: RNXT) is a life sciences company developing innovative targeted oncology therapies and commercializing RenovoCath ®, a novel, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared local drug-delivery device, targeting high unmet medical needs. RenovoRx's patented Trans-Arterial Micro-Perfusion (TAMP™) therapy platform is designed for targeted therapeutic delivery across the arterial wall near the tumor site to bathe the target tumor, while potentially minimizing a therapy's toxicities versus systemic intravenous therapy. RenovoRx's novel approach to targeted treatment offers the potential for increased safety, tolerance, and improved efficacy, and its mission is to transform the lives of cancer patients by providing innovative solutions to enable targeted delivery of diagnostic and therapeutic agents. In addition to the RenovoCath device, RenovoRx is also evaluating its novel drug-device combination oncology product candidate (intra-arterial gemcitabine delivered via RenovoCath, known as IAG) in the ongoing Phase III TIGeR-PaC trial. IAG is being evaluated by the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (the drug division of the FDA) under a U.S. investigational new drug application that is regulated by the FDA's 21 CFR 312 pathway. IAG utilizes RenovoCath, the Company's patented, FDA-cleared drug-delivery device, indicated for temporary vessel occlusion in applications including arteriography, preoperative occlusion, and chemotherapeutic drug infusion. The combination product candidate, which is enabled by the RenovoCath device, is currently under investigation and has not been approved for commercial sale. RenovoCath with gemcitabine received Orphan Drug Designation for pancreatic cancer and bile duct cancer, which provides seven years of market exclusivity upon new drug application approval by the FDA. RenovoRx is also actively commercializing its TAMP technology and FDA-cleared RenovoCath as a stand-alone device. In December 2024, RenovoRx announced the receipt of its first commercial purchase orders for RenovoCath devices. Additionally, several of these customers have already initiated repeat orders in parallel to RenovoRx expanding the number of medical institutions initiating new RenovoCath orders, including several esteemed, high-volume National Cancer Institute-designated centers. To meet and satisfy the anticipated demand, RenovoRx will continue to actively explore further revenue-generating activity, either on its own or in tandem with a medical device commercial partner.

Enanta Pharmaceuticals Files Patent Infringement Suit Against Pfizer in the Unified Patent Court of the European Union
WATERTOWN, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Enanta Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENTA), a clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to creating novel, small molecule drugs for viral infections and immunological diseases, announced today that it has filed suit in the Unified Patent Court (UPC) of the European Union against Pfizer Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (action number 35071/2025), seeking a determination of liability for use and infringement of European Patent No. EP 4 051 265 (the '265 Patent) in the manufacture, use and sale of Pfizer's COVID-19 antiviral, Paxlovid™ (nirmatrelvir tablets; ritonavir tablets). This enforcement action targets Pfizer's activities in the 18 countries of the European Union that are presently participating in the UPC. The European Patent Office's recent grant of the '265 Patent to Enanta was published in the European Patent Bulletin today. The '265 Patent is based on Enanta's July 2020 patent application describing coronavirus protease inhibitors invented by Enanta scientists. The '265 Patent is the European counterpart of U.S. Patent No. 11,358,953 (the '953 Patent) involved in ongoing U.S. litigation between Enanta and Pfizer Inc. Under UPC procedures, a hearing on the infringement action is expected to occur within the UPC's published 12-month target, with the decision rendered within weeks thereafter. If the UPC determines there has been infringement, subsequent proceedings would be required to determine damages. All timelines remain subject to potential rights of appeal and other customary proceedings in European patent litigation. About Enanta Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Enanta is using its robust, chemistry-driven approach and drug discovery capabilities to become a leader in the discovery and development of small molecule drugs with an emphasis on indications in virology and immunology. Enanta's clinical programs are currently focused on respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and its earlier-stage immunology pipeline aims to develop treatments for inflammatory diseases by targeting key drivers of the type 2 immune response, including KIT and STAT6 inhibition. Glecaprevir, a protease inhibitor discovered by Enanta, is part of one of the leading treatment regimens for curing hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and is sold by AbbVie in numerous countries under the tradenames MAVYRET ® (U.S.) and MAVIRET ® (ex-U.S.) (glecaprevir/pibrentasvir). A portion of Enanta's royalties from HCV products developed under its collaboration with AbbVie contribute ongoing funding to Enanta's operations. Please visit for more information. Forward Looking Statements Disclaimer This press release contains forward-looking statements, including statements with respect to Enanta's filing in the UPC of a suit against Pfizer Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries seeking a determination of liability for use and infringement of Enanta's patent and Enanta's expectations with respect to any further action with respect to such proceedings. Statements that are not historical facts are based on management's current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about Enanta's business and the industry in which it operates and management's beliefs and assumptions. The statements contained in this release are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which are difficult to predict.
