Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On December 11, 2024, LadRx Corporation (the “Company”) announced its intent to approach the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) with a proposal to use the existing clinical data and supplemental non-clinical data to seek marketing approval for aldoxorubicin under section 505(b)(2). As a result of conducting additional research and records reviews, management has formed the opinion that while obtaining a marketing approval under section 505(b)(2) is possible, the Company does not have the resources available to conduct the likely necessary activities to gain approval.
