Developing the Clinic of the Future, Cloud DX work to be supported by Sheridan College through federal grant
News in Summary
Cloud DX (TSXV:CDX) (OTC:CDXFF), a leading Virtual Care platform, announces the issuance of a new patent for its upcoming Pulsewave 2.0 Vital Sign Monitor. The wrist-worn device stands to be the first at home clinical-grade vital signs monitor to capture diagnostic-quality blood pressure, heart rate, heartbeat irregularities, and respiration status simultaneously. This is the second patent for the Pulsewave 2.0 platform and this award arrives during the company's record-breaking quarter.
US patent 11,272,859 entitled ‘System and Method of Determining Respiratory Status From Oscillometric Data', strengthens the protection of Cloud DX's innovative and novel methods used to determine respiratory status. Building upon the device's initial US patent 11,006,843,which depicts the concept of using oscillometric data to determine respiration rate. This patent protects the methods developed to analyze data in determining respiratory status, beyond just respiratory rate. The company congratulates inventors Vesal Badee, Sara Ross-Howe, Josh Haid, Lamiaa Amzil, Cezar Morun, and Bonghun Shin, all members of the Research and Development team at Cloud DX.
Lead inventor and Cloud DX Biomedical Data Scientist, Vesal Badaee, states "There are plenty of digital health wearables in the market. Most, however, are limited in the quality of data they provide. This can frustrate doctors and healthcare professionals when users want to rely on them. In medicine, clinical-grade vitals are required for diagnostics or medical direction; Cloud DX is driving the transition in bringing clinical-grade wearables into the consumer space, from hospitals and clinics to our homes. This second patent on our next-generation Pulsewave underlines the innovation we're producing at Cloud DX. The team and I are proud to be a part of this Virtual Care transition."
"With the Medical Metaverse and the Virtual Care movements growing the need for home-based diagnostics grows ever more prominent," added Robert Kaul, CEO and Founder of Cloud DX. He continued, "Together these technologies create an all-encompassing model of care improves access to healthcare and can expedite accurate clinician decision making. The ability to accurately capture patient vitals anywhere in the world, even in most remote locations, and transfer that data directly to their doctor or care team means primary care teams can make better clinical decisions, potentially remove the need for an in-person doctor visit, or even circumvent an emergent care visit. To put it simply, the connected ecosystem means better patient outcomes, closer circles of care, and more economical for providers and payers."

Cloud DX chosen as Virtual Care Platform for the Ontario Paramedical Service provider, replacing existing hardware and services
Cloud DX (TSXV:CDX)(OTCQX:CDXFF) is pleased to announce a new 24-month contract with an Ontario Paramedic Service Provider enabling the client to provide Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) across its serviceable area. Cloud DX will provide its award-winning Connected Health™ platform and support the client as it transitions from its previous remote care tools to Cloud DX's Virtual Care Platform. The client showcases how beneficial ‘Remote Care Monitoring' is for Paramedical Service providers, enabling providers to establish deeper community roots and maintain funding levels, while community members benefit from greater access to much-needed care. The client has purchased 223 Connected Health™ kits totalling ~$145,000 CAD with additional recurring fees for subscription software services. Funding for the program comes from the $82.5M Community Paramedicine for Long-Term Care program announced by the Ontario government on October 22, 2021
The Paramedical client will provide Cloud DX's biometric monitoring equipment to clients in their homes to monitor vital signs including weight, blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen level, temperature, and blood glucose. Daily monitoring allows the client and health care providers to make informed decisions and enables the Paramedic to connect with the client if a metric is out of range. The paramedical care provider seeks to keep individuals on the long-term care bed waitlist and individuals who are medically complex or isolated comfortable and safe in their homes. In turn, Remote Care Monitoring is expected to reduce 911 calls, emergency room visits, and hospital admissions.
Cloud DX COO and co-founder, Anthony Kaul, states "At-home remote monitoring is critical to improving the health of vulnerable populations, such as community members with chronic conditions or seniors who wish to live independently for as long as possible. By bringing Remote Care Monitoring directly to the community our client is forging a new path in paramedicine. This modern approach improves community health and enables significantly earlier intervention for those with deteriorating health, in turn reducing hospitalizations. Cloud DX is well known for our high user satisfaction ratings, so we are confident this initiative will be well received by the community. Of course, with our Headquarters in Ontario, we're always extremely happy to support our neighbouring communities."

- AbbVie (NYSE:ABBV) announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025 .
"AbbVie's first-quarter results were well ahead of our expectations and reflect an excellent start to the year," said Robert A. Michael , chief executive officer, AbbVie. "The fundamentals of our business are strong and we continue to bolster our outlook with pipeline advancements and strategic investments. Based on the progress we are making, AbbVie is well positioned for the long term."
First -Quarter Results
Note: "Operational" comparisons are presented at constant currency rates that reflect comparative local currency net revenues at the prior year's foreign exchange rates. |
Recent Events
Full-Year 2025 Outlook
AbbVie is raising its adjusted diluted EPS guidance for the full year 2025 from $11.99 - $12.19 to $12.09 - $12.29 , which includes an unfavorable impact of $0.13 per share related to acquired IPR&D and milestones expense incurred year-to-date through the first quarter 2025. The company's 2025 adjusted diluted EPS guidance excludes any impact from acquired IPR&D and milestones that may be incurred beyond the first quarter of 2025, as both cannot be reliably forecasted. This guidance does not reflect the acquired IPR&D and milestones impact related to AbbVie and Gubra's licensing agreement to develop GUB014295, as that transaction closed after the first quarter of 2025. Additionally, this guidance is based on the existing trade environment and does not reflect any trade policy shifts, including pharmaceutical sector tariffs, that could impact AbbVie's business.
About AbbVie
AbbVie's mission is to discover and deliver innovative medicines that solve serious health issues today and address the medical challenges of tomorrow. We strive to have a remarkable impact on people's lives across several key therapeutic areas: immunology, neuroscience, oncology, and eye care - and products and services across our Allergan Aesthetics portfolio. For more information about AbbVie, please visit us at www.abbvie.com . Follow @abbvie on X (formerly Twitter), Facebook , Instagram , YouTube or LinkedIn .
Conference Call
AbbVie will host an investor conference call today at 8:00 a.m. Central Time to discuss our first-quarter performance. The call will be webcast through AbbVie's Investor Relations website at investors.abbvie.com . An archived edition of the call will be available after 11:00 a.m. Central Time .
Non-GAAP Financial Results
Financial results for 2025 and 2024 are presented on both a reported and a non-GAAP basis. Reported results were prepared in accordance with GAAP and include all revenue and expenses recognized during the period. Non-GAAP results adjust for certain non-cash items and for factors that are unusual or unpredictable, and exclude those costs, expenses, and other specified items presented in the reconciliation tables later in this release. AbbVie's management believes non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors regarding AbbVie's results of operations and assist management, analysts, and investors in evaluating the performance of the business. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

TrenibotE is a first-in-class botulinum neurotoxin serotype E characterized by a rapid onset of action as early as 8 hours after administration (earliest assessment time) and shorter duration of effect of 2-3 weeks. If approved, TrenibotE will be the first neurotoxin of its kind available to patients. –Submission is supported by data from over 2,100 patients treated with TrenibotE throughout the clinical program.
NORTH CHICAGO, Ill. , April 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) today announced submission of a Biologics License Application (BLA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for trenibotulinumtoxinE (TrenibotE) for the treatment of moderate to severe glabellar lines.
"The submission provides evidence of TrenibotE's differentiated clinical profile to offer patients an opportunity to experience a faster onset and shorter treatment duration as an introduction to a neurotoxin," said Darin Messina , Ph.D., senior vice president, aesthetics R&D, AbbVie. "TrenibotE has the potential to transform the aesthetic toxin treatment landscape for new patients interested in the facial aesthetics category."
New patients wanting to experience the aesthetic benefits of a neurotoxin cite "fear of looking unnatural" as a barrier to initiating neurotoxin use for aesthetic indications. If approved, TrenibotE will be the first serotype E neurotoxin offering patients the opportunity to experience a neurotoxin with rapid clinical effect for a shorter duration of time as a trial before getting treatment with BOTOX® Cosmetic.
The BLA submission is supported by data from over 2,100 patients treated with TrenibotE in the clinical program, which included two pivotal Phase 3 clinical studies evaluating TrenibotE for the treatment of moderate to severe glabellar lines (M21-500 and M21-508) and a Phase 3 open-label safety study (M21-509). All primary and secondary endpoints of the Phase 3 studies were met, with a rapid onset of action as early as 8 hours after drug administration (the earliest assessment time) and observed efficacy duration for 2-3 weeks. Treatment-emergent adverse events for TrenibotE were similar to placebo, both as a single treatment and up to three consecutive treatments. Topline data from the Phase 3 pivotal studies were previously shared .
"Concern about an unnatural outcome remains a significant barrier for many patients considering medical aesthetics treatment," said Cheryl Burgess , MD, FAAD, lead clinical investigator for one of the Phase 3 studies. "Treatment with a product offering rapid onset of effect and short duration of action could help address this barrier and empower confidence for patients exploring their aesthetics treatment journey with innovation from the makers of BOTOX® Cosmetic."
BOTOX ® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA) Important Information
Indications
BOTOX ® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA) is indicated in adult patients for the temporary improvement in the appearance of:
- Moderate to severe glabellar lines associated with corrugator and/or procerus muscle activity
- Moderate to severe lateral canthal lines associated with orbicularis oculi activity
- Moderate to severe forehead lines associated with frontalis activity
- Moderate to severe platysma bands associated with platysma muscle activity
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION, INCLUDING BOXED WARNING
WARNING: DISTANT SPREAD OF TOXIN EFFECT |
CONTRAINDICATIONS
BOTOX ® Cosmetic is contraindicated in the presence of infection at the proposed injection site(s) and in individuals with known hypersensitivity to any botulinum toxin preparation or to any of the components in the formulation.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Lack of Equivalency Between Botulinum Toxin Products
The potency Units of BOTOX ® Cosmetic are specific to the preparation and assay method utilized. BOTOX ® Cosmetic is not equivalent to other preparations of botulinum toxin products, and therefore, Units of biological activity of BOTOX ® Cosmetic cannot be compared to nor converted into Units of any other botulinum toxin products assessed with any other specific assay method.
Spread of Toxin Effect
Please refer to Boxed Warning for Distant Spread of Toxin Effect.
No definitive serious adverse event reports of distant spread of toxin effect associated with dermatologic use of BOTOX ® Cosmetic at the labeled dose of 20 Units (for glabellar lines), 24 Units (for lateral canthal lines), 40 Units (for forehead lines with glabellar lines), 44 Units (for simultaneous treatment of lateral canthal lines and glabellar lines), and 64 Units (for simultaneous treatment of lateral canthal lines, glabellar lines, and forehead lines) have been reported. Patients or caregivers should be advised to seek immediate medical care if swallowing, speech, or respiratory disorders occur.
Serious Adverse Reactions With Unapproved Use
Serious adverse reactions, including excessive weakness, dysphagia, and aspiration pneumonia, with some adverse reactions associated with fatal outcomes, have been reported in patients who received BOTOX ® injections for unapproved uses. In these cases, the adverse reactions were not necessarily related to distant spread of toxin, but may have resulted from the administration of BOTOX ® to the site of injection and/or adjacent structures. In several of the cases, patients had preexisting dysphagia or other significant disabilities. There is insufficient information to identify factors associated with an increased risk for adverse reactions associated with the unapproved uses of BOTOX ® . The safety and effectiveness of BOTOX ® for unapproved uses have not been established.
Hypersensitivity Reactions
Serious and/or immediate hypersensitivity reactions have been reported. These reactions include anaphylaxis, serum sickness, urticaria, soft-tissue edema, and dyspnea. If such a reaction occurs, discontinue further injection of BOTOX Cosmetic and immediately institute appropriate medical therapy. One fatal case of anaphylaxis has been reported in which lidocaine was used as the diluent and, consequently, the causal agent cannot be reliably determined.
Cardiovascular System
There have been reports following administration of BOTOX ® of adverse events involving the cardiovascular system, including arrhythmia and myocardial infarction, some with fatal outcomes. Some of these patients had risk factors, including preexisting cardiovascular disease. Use caution when administering to patients with preexisting cardiovascular disease.
Increased Risk of Clinically Significant Effects With Preexisting Neuromuscular Disorders
Patients with neuromuscular disorders may be at increased risk of clinically significant effects, including generalized muscle weakness, diplopia, ptosis, dysphonia, dysarthria, severe dysphagia, and respiratory compromise from onabotulinumtoxinA (see Warnings and Precautions ). Monitor individuals with peripheral motor neuropathic diseases, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or neuromuscular junction disorders (eg, myasthenia gravis or Lambert-Eaton syndrome) when given botulinum toxin.
Dysphagia and Breathing Difficulties
Treatment with BOTOX ® and other botulinum toxin products can result in swallowing or breathing difficulties. Patients with preexisting swallowing or breathing difficulties may be more susceptible to these complications. In most cases, this is a consequence of weakening of muscles in the area of injection that are involved in breathing or oropharyngeal muscles that control swallowing or breathing (see Boxed Warning ).
Preexisting Conditions at the Injection Site
Use caution when BOTOX ® Cosmetic treatment is used in the presence of inflammation at the proposed injection site(s) or when excessive weakness or atrophy is present in the target muscle(s).
Dry Eye in Patients Treated With BOTOX ® Cosmetic
There have been reports of dry eye associated with BOTOX ® Cosmetic injection in or near the orbicularis oculi muscle. If symptoms of dry eye (eg, eye irritation, photophobia, or visual changes) persist, consider referring patients to an ophthalmologist.
Human Albumin and Transmission of Viral Diseases
This product contains albumin, a derivative of human blood. Based on effective donor screening and product manufacturing processes, it carries a remote risk for transmission of viral diseases and variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD). There is a theoretical risk for transmission of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), which would also be considered remote. No cases of transmission of viral diseases, CJD, or vCJD have ever been identified for licensed albumin or albumin contained in other licensed products.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most frequently reported adverse reactions following injection of BOTOX ® Cosmetic for glabellar lines were eyelid ptosis (3%), facial pain (1%), facial paresis (1%), and muscular weakness (1%).
The most frequently reported adverse reaction following injection of BOTOX ® Cosmetic for lateral canthal lines was eyelid edema (1%).
The most frequently reported adverse reactions following injection of BOTOX ® Cosmetic for forehead lines with glabellar lines were headache (9%), brow ptosis (2%), and eyelid ptosis (2%).
The safety profile of BOTOX ® Cosmetic treatment of platysma bands is consistent with the known safety profile of BOTOX ® Cosmetic for other indications.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
Coadministration of BOTOX ® Cosmetic and aminoglycosides or other agents interfering with neuromuscular transmission (eg, curare-like compounds) should only be performed with caution as the effect of the toxin may be potentiated. Use of anticholinergic drugs after administration of BOTOX ® Cosmetic may potentiate systemic anticholinergic effects.
The effect of administering different botulinum neurotoxin products at the same time or within several months of each other is unknown. Excessive neuromuscular weakness may be exacerbated by administration of another botulinum toxin prior to the resolution of the effects of a previously administered botulinum toxin.
Excessive weakness may also be exaggerated by administration of a muscle relaxant before or after administration of BOTOX ® Cosmetic.
USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
There are no studies or adequate data from postmarketing surveillance on the developmental risk associated with use of BOTOX ® Cosmetic in pregnant women. There are no data on the presence of BOTOX ® Cosmetic in human or animal milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production.
For more information on BOTOX ® Cosmetic, please see accompanying full Prescribing Information, including Boxed Warning and Medication Guide.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains "forward-looking statements" of Adicet within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 relating to the business and operations of Adicet. The words "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "target," "would" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, express or implied statements regarding: expectations related to Adicet's business development, strategic opportunities and growth; Adicet's plans and expectations for advancing its autoimmune programs across multiple autoimmune and solid tumor indications; and the anticipated contribution of the members of Adicet's Board of Directors to the Company's business.
Any forward-looking statements in this press release are based on management's current expectations and beliefs of future events, and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from those set forth in or implied by such forward-looking statements, including without limitation, the effect of global economic conditions and public health emergencies on Adicet's business and financial results, including with respect to disruptions to our preclinical and clinical studies, business operations, employee hiring and retention, and ability to raise additional capital; Adicet's ability to execute on its strategy including obtaining the requisite regulatory approvals on the expected timeline, if at all; that positive results, including interim results, from a preclinical or clinical study may not necessarily be predictive of the results of future or ongoing studies; clinical studies may fail to demonstrate adequate safety and efficacy of Adicet's product candidates, which would prevent, delay, or limit the scope of regulatory approval and commercialization; and regulatory approval processes of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and comparable foreign regulatory authorities are lengthy, time-consuming, and inherently unpredictable; and Adicet's ability to meet production and product release expectations.

New York Plastic Surgical Group and Deep Blue Med Spa have been named the #1 provider of Allergan products in New York State. In addition, they have been ranked in the top 25 nationally. This distinction places them in the top 1% of over 30,000 Allergan medical aesthetic practices throughout the country.
As a pioneer in the field of aesthetic medicine, Allergan develops and manufactures a portfolio of leading brands and products including Botox Cosmetic, the Juvéderm family of fillers, Coolsculpting, Cooltone, DiamondGlow, and SkinMedica. To receive a top placement from such an authority within the industry is not only an accomplishment, but also a demonstration of true mastery. To date, NYPS Group and Deep Blue Med Spa are proud to have had multiple providers chosen to serve as national AMI (Allergan Medical Institute) trainers.
What does this mean for consumers? In short, it translates to expertise and rewards. Once a year, Allergan awards aesthetics practices nationwide through its "Allergan Partner Privileges" program. This unique program awards status levels to practices based on the volume of Allergan products used. The more a practice uses equates to the frequency in which the practice provides Allergan Aesthetic products and services. Allergan rewards these practices with rebates and offers, which are then passed along to patients.
