SIGA Technologies Declared A Special Cash Dividend Of $0.60 Per Share Payable On May 15, 2025, To Shareholders Of Record At The Close Of Business On April 29, 2025

SIGA Technologies&#8217; (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SIGA#NASDAQ">SIGA</a>) antiviral drug tecovirimat, when used without other treatments, did not reduce the time for clade II mpox lesions to heal or significantly alleviate pain, according to results from an international clinical trial sponsored by the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech" rel="noreferrer noopener">National Institutes of Health (NIH)</a>.
The study, known as STOMP, was halted in late 2024 after an interim analysis indicated the drug was ineffective in the study population.
Mpox has two <a target="_blank" href="https://www.niaid.nih.gov/news-events/tecovirimat-safe-ineffective-treatment-clade-ii-mpox" rel="noreferrer noopener">identified</a> variants: clades I and II. A clade II outbreak in 2022 led to global transmission, with continued low-level circulation.
Meanwhile, a clade I outbreak in Central and East Africa was declared a public health emergency in 2024.
STOMP launched in September 2022 as part of a U.S. government initiative addressing the clade II mpox outbreak.
No mpox-specific treatments have been approved in the U.S.
Tecovirimat, also known as TPOXX, was originally authorized by the FDA to treat smallpox based on animal studies but had not been evaluated in humans with mpox before STOMP and a parallel study, PALM007, conducted in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
PALM007 yielded similar results from STOMP, further questioning tecovirimat's effectiveness for mpox.
Results showed that by day 29, 83% of participants taking tecovirimat had achieved clinical resolution, compared to 84% in the placebo group, indicating no meaningful difference.
Among those who reported severe pain at the study's outset, pain reduction was similar across groups, with tecovirimat users reporting an average decrease of 3.2 points on an 11-point scale, compared to 3.1 points for placebo recipients.
Viral DNA levels declined over time in both groups, with no statistically significant differences at key checkpoints.
Adverse event rates were also comparable between treatment and placebo groups.
A separate exploratory analysis examined STOMP's open-label participants—those at higher risk of severe mpox. The analysis found that younger participants and those without HIV or with well-controlled HIV experienced faster lesion resolution. 
However, no strong correlation was observed between symptom duration before study entry and recovery speed. Researchers noted that open-label participants had fewer lesions but slower recovery compared to PALM007 trial participants.
On Tuesday, SIGA Technologies reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/03/g44262141/siga-reports-financial-results-for-three-and-twelve-months-ended-december-31-2024" rel="noreferrer noopener">fourth-quarter earnings</a> of 63 cents, down from $1.01, and sales of $81.4 million, down $116.5 million <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">from a year ago</a>.
Price Action: SIGA stock is up 7.05% at $6.02 at the last check Wednesday.

On Thursday,&nbsp;the Japan Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare approved SIGA Technologies (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SIGA#NASDAQ">SIGA</a>) antiviral treatment TEPOXX (tecovirimat 200 mg capsules) for smallpox, mpox, cowpox, as well as complications following smallpox vaccination in adults and pediatric patients <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/g42761893/tepoxx-tecovirimat-approved-in-japan-for-the-treatment-of-orthopoxviruses" rel="noreferrer noopener">weighing at least 13 kg</a>.
TEPOXX is the first antiviral therapy for orthopoxviruses approved by Japan's drug regulator in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare.&nbsp;&nbsp;
In partnership with Japan Biotechno Pharma, SIGA's exclusive distributor in Japan, SIGA has delivered an order of TEPOXX to help build Japan's strategic national stockpile.

The Japanese approval is based on data from 15 clinical trials of oral TEPOXX in over 800 healthy volunteers, including a pivotal repeat-dose phase 1 pharmacokinetics (PK) trial involving 20 healthy volunteers conducted in Japan.
These studies showed no drug-related serious adverse events and quantifiable PK within efficacious dose ranges. Four pivotal studies in non-human primates (NHPs) and two pivotal studies in rabbits demonstrated that TEPOXX significantly reduced mortality and viral load.
TEPOXX is a highly targeted small-molecule antiviral that inhibits the VP37 protein found on the surface of all orthopoxviruses. By preventing the virus from exiting infected cells, TEPOXX slows the spread of the infection, enabling the immune system to clear the virus.
TPOXX is approved for smallpox in the U.S.&nbsp;and Canada. In the&nbsp;European Union and the UK, marketed as Tecovirimat-SIGA, it is approved&nbsp;for smallpox, mpox, and cowpox and to treat complications following smallpox vaccination.

The study did not meet its primary endpoint of a statistically significant improvement in time to lesion resolution within 28 days post-randomization for patients in the Democratic Republic of the Congo with mpox who were administered SIGA's tecovirimat versus placebo, weighing <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/08/40534370/government-contract-win-may-improve-investor-sentiment-for-siga-tech-after-disappointing-trial-da" rel="noreferrer noopener">on the share price</a>.

Why Rumble Shares Are Trading Higher By Around 43%; Here Are 20 Stocks Moving Premarket

SIGA Technologies shares are trading lower after interim results from the STOMP study showed that Tecovirimat did not improve the time to lesion resolution compared to placebo in adults with mild to moderate clade II Mpox.

<a href="https://www.niaid.nih.gov/news-events/nih-study-finds-tecovirimat-was-safe-did-not-improve-mpox-resolution-or-pain">https://www.niaid.nih.gov/news-events/nih-study-finds-tecovirimat-was-safe-did-not-improve-mpox-resolution-or-pain</a>
<h2>Study Examined Tecovirimat in Countries Affected by Global Clade II Mpox Outbreak</h2>
&nbsp;
The antiviral drug tecovirimat did not reduce the time to lesion resolution&nbsp;or have an effect on pain among adults with mild to moderate clade II mpox and a low risk of developing severe disease, according to an interim data analysis from the international clinical trial called the Study of Tecovirimat for Mpox (STOMP). There were no safety concerns associated with tecovirimat.&nbsp;
Considering&nbsp;these definitive findings, the study's Data Safety and Monitoring Board (DSMB) recommended stopping further enrollment of participants who were being randomized to tecovirimat or placebo. As the study sponsor, the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) accepted the DSMB's recommendation.&nbsp;Given the lack of an efficacy signal, NIAID also closed enrollment into an open-label study arm for participants with or at elevated risk of severe disease that was not designed to estimate the drug's efficacy.&nbsp;

'NIH Study Finds Tecovirimat Was Safe but Did Not Improve Mpox Resolution Or Pain'

SIGA Technologies (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SIGA#NASDAQ">SIGA</a>) reported quarterly earnings of $0.02 per share.

This is a 8.28 percent increase over sales of $9.23 million the same period last year.

SIGA Enters Exclusive License Agreement With Vanderbilt University To Obtain A License To A Portfolio Of Preclinical Fully Human Poxvirus Monoclonal Antibodies

The contract was executed in response to a request from the Ministry of Health in Morocco to make the therapy available in the country and help prepare and protect its citizens against any potential mpox outbreak.
Tecovirimat is approved in the U.S., Canada, and the EU, and while it has also been available in Africa through clinical trials and as part of the World Health Organization&#39;s emergency use access protocol, this agreement marks SIGA&#39;s first commercial sale of TPOXX on the continent.
