## What Theriva Biologics does

Theriva Biologics, Inc. describes itself as a diversified clinical-stage company developing therapeutics to treat cancer and related diseases. Its lead product candidate, VCN-01 (zabilugene almadenorepvec), is a clinical stage oncolytic human adenovirus modified for tumor-selective replication and to express the enzyme PH20 hyaluronidase. The company acquired VCN Biosciences, S.L. in March 2022 and moved its strategic focus to oncology. VCN-01 has been evaluated in a Phase 2b study for pancreatic cancer, called VIRAGE, and in a Phase 1 study for retinoblastoma, as well as in other Phase 1 studies for solid tumors including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Before the acquisition, the company focused on gastrointestinal diseases with SYN-004 (ribaxamase), designed to degrade certain intravenous beta-lactam antibiotics within the GI tract, and SYN-020, a recombinant oral formulation of intestinal alkaline phosphatase. In February 2026 the company entered into a license agreement with Rasayana Therapeutics, Inc., granting an exclusive worldwide license.

| SYN-004 (ribaxamase) | Degrades certain IV beta-lactam antibiotics in the GI tract | Clinical development candidate (former GI focus) |
