Lantern Pharma to Present at the 7th Glioblastoma Drug Development Summit in Boston on February 17-19, 2026

Lantern Pharma Inc. (NASDAQ: LTRN), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company leveraging artificial intelligence to accelerate oncology drug discovery and development, today announced that CEO and President Panna Sharma will present at the 7th Glioblastoma Drug Development Summit, February 17–19, 2026, in Boston, MA.

More information about the summit is available at: https://glioblastoma-drugdevelopment.com .

Lantern’s proprietary AI and machine learning platform, RADR ^® , powered the development of LP-184 / STAR-001, a novel brain-penetrant therapeutic candidate. This work has driven the creation of Lantern’s wholly owned subsidiary, Starlight Therapeutics, which is advancing clinical development for multiple CNS cancers, including recurrent glioblastoma and pediatric brain tumors such as atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumors (ATRT)—for which STAR-001 has received both FDA Orphan Drug Designation and Rare Pediatric Disease Designation.

In his presentation on Day Two (Thursday, February 19, 2026, at 10:30 a.m. ET), Mr. Sharma will highlight how Lantern applied RADR ^® to:

• Elucidate the mechanism of action of STAR-001
• Identify patient biomarkers to inform clinical use
• Select optimal cancer indications
• Discover novel combination therapies in neuro-oncology

The talk will emphasize AI-driven insights and approaches that are helping overcome challenges in treating aggressive brain cancers like glioblastoma and ATRT.
