Results and Provides Corporate Update

Announces strategic clinical trial plans for tecarfarin in patients with End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD) transitioning to dialysis

Tecarfarin can potentially address critical treatment gaps in patients with ESKD

Pivotal step forward in pursuit of ESKD + Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) registration trial

PONTE VEDRA, FL, August 11, 2025 – Cadrenal Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CVKD), a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing transformative therapeutics that specifically address limitations of current anticoagulation therapy, today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025, and provided an update on the strategic focus of the company and clinical development of tecarfarin.

“We continue to advance our goal of developing transformative therapeutics to address the gaps in current anticoagulation therapy for patients with complex needs,” said Quang X. Pham, Chairman & CEO. “This commitment is reflected in our strategic plan to initiate a clinical trial for tecarfarin in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) for patients transitioning to dialysis. There is a critical need for safe, effective anticoagulants for use in ESKD patients, and tecarfarin’s orphan drug and fast-track designations in ESKD patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib) underscore this need. We are very excited to advance this program.”

“Strong operational execution is fundamental to advancing tecarfarin into late-stage trials,” continued Pham. “By successfully completing the technical transfer of tecarfarin to a U.S. site of a leading global CDMO and manufacturing tecarfarin drug product, we have achieved critical steps in CMC readiness to supply our planned clinical trial and execute our development strategy.”   

Highlights from the Quarter Ended June 30, 2025, and Other Recent Events:

Clinical Trial Developments

In August 2025, Cadrenal announced plans to initiate a clinical trial for its late-stage drug candidate, tecarfarin, in patients with ESKD who are transitioning to dialysis, including those with and without atrial fibrillation (AFib). Site activation and screening for patient enrollment are planned to begin later this year.

The need is urgent for this population, as patients with severe kidney disease are at high risk for thrombotic cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction and stroke, along with a much greater risk of AFib and venous thromboembolism compared to subjects with normal kidney function. When ESKD patients require dialysis, their transition period comes with even greater risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, and a substantial increase in mortality.

Cadrenal expects that this study will be a significant step forward in the continued development of tecarfarin in ESKD and other areas with real opportunities to improve patient outcomes with a potentially better anticoagulant.

Operational Milestones

● CMC Readiness: Successfully completed the technical transfer and manufacturing of its tecarfarin drug substance in accordance with current good manufacturing practices (cGMP) at a U.S. site of a leading global CDMO. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company manufactured tecarfarin clinical drug product and continued to make important advancements in CMC operations to support regulatory and clinical trial readiness. 

● Market Opportunity Research: During the quarter, the Company performed market research in indications where gaps exist in current anticoagulation therapies. This research reinforced that tecarfarin is uniquely positioned to provide potential clinical benefits in certain populations, such as patients with high-need cardiovascular conditions or renal impairment, where anticoagulation safety and predictability are highly important and valued.

Participation in Key Investor, Medical, and Business Development Conferences

Cadrenal continued to be active during the quarter in conferences to build corporate visibility and underscore its commitment to advancing innovation in anticoagulation therapy. Key interactions included participation at the BIO International Convention in Boston, the Longwood Healthcare Leaders CEO conference in Miami, and the 18^th National Conference on Anticoagulation Therapy in Washington, D.C.

Strategic Development Collaborations

Cadrenal continues to explore opportunities to expand the Company’s clinical pipeline and collaborate with potential development partners to advance the development of tecarfarin for patients with ESKD and AFib, LVADs, and for other indications requiring chronic anticoagulation.

Stock Index Benchmarks

Effective June 30, 2025, Cadrenal was added to multiple Russell indexes, including the Russell 3000E and Russell Microcap families. These indexes are widely tracked by institutional investors and index funds, potentially broadening the Company’s shareholder base.

About Cadrenal Therapeutics, Inc.

Cadrenal Therapeutics, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company developing transformative therapeutics to address limitations of current anticoagulation therapy. Cadrenal’s lead investigational product is tecarfarin, a novel oral vitamin K antagonist anticoagulant that is designed to address unmet needs in anticoagulation therapy. Tecarfarin is a reversible anticoagulant (blood thinner) designed to prevent heart attacks, strokes, and deaths due to blood clots in patients requiring chronic anticoagulation. Although warfarin is widely used off-label for several indications, extensive clinical and real-world data have shown it can have significant, serious side effects. With tecarfarin, Cadrenal is advancing an innovative solution to address the unmet needs in anticoagulation therapy, aiming to reduce the clinical complexities of managing Vitamin K antagonists and where DOACs remain inadequate or unproven.

Tecarfarin received Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) and fast-track status for the prevention of systemic thromboembolism (blood clots) of cardiac origin in patients with end-stage kidney disease and atrial fibrillation (ESKD+AFib). The Company also received ODD for the prevention of thromboembolism and thrombosis in patients with implanted mechanical circulatory support devices, including Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs).

Cadrenal is opportunistically pursuing business development initiatives with a longer-term focus on creating a pipeline of cardiovascular therapeutics. For more information, visit https://www.cadrenal.com/and connect with us on LinkedIn.
