April 29th

Dear Reader,


MAIA Biotechnology, Inc. (NYSE American: MAIA) is making green moves early Wednesday AM.


Hitting the ground running and pushing to a high of $1.33, MAIA moved above 4 key technical chart levels fresh out of the bell.


Those are MAIA's:


  • 5-Day Simple Moving Average (SMA)
  • 20-Day SMA
  • 5-Day Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
  • 13-Day EMA


What does this mean? It means if resistance is breaking down and support is replacing it at those critical levels, it could act as the building blocks to help continue this recent vertical chart momentum.


This is all occurring less than 2 weeks since a major announcement: MAIA Biotechnology Activates First U.S. Site for Ongoing International Phase 2 Expansion Trial of Novel Telomere Targeting Treatment Targeting Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer


And don't forget to factor in that two separate analyst targets (more details below) are pointing to potential triple-digit upside.


Spend a moment to review our initial (NYSE American: MAIA) report below and consider this profile for your radar.

-----


As immuno-oncology continues its rapid growth, an under-the-radar player is stepping forward with an approach that may reshape how cancer is treated.


The immune checkpoint inhibitor market is on a steep climb, rising from $50.29Bn in 2025 to $58.43Bn in 2026, with projections reaching $123.57Bn by 2031.


Positioned within this accelerating space, this company is advancing a therapeutic strategy designed to capitalize on that momentum.


Rather than simply following industry trends, its work suggests a shift in how the immune system can be leveraged against some of the most challenging cancers.


And back in 2024, when I brought this profile to your attention, it exploded approx. 275% within months.


With multiple analyst targets pointing to triple-digit potential upside, a massive market ripe for disruption, and several clinical updates pointing to momentum growing, this NYSE American profile is topping our watchlist again:


*MAIA Biotechnology, Inc. (NYSE American: MAIA)*


MAIA is a targeted therapy, immuno-oncology company focused on the development and commercialization of potential first-in-class drugs with novel mechanisms of action that are intended to meaningfully improve and extend the lives of people with cancer.


And based on multiple potential breakout catalysts, MAIA should be considered as watchlist material. Check them out:


#1. One Analyst's Target Suggests Over 1,000% Potential Upside From MAIA's Current Chart Levels.


#2. Another Analyst Target Suggests Over 700% Potential Upside From Tuesday's Close.


#3. A Phase 2 Expansion Trial Into The U.S. Signals A Key Company Milestone.


#4. A Recent $33Mn Capital Raise Aims To Completely Fund An Ongoing Pivotal Phase 3 Trial.


#5. The Company Reports Overall Survival Beyond 2 Years For 8 Patients In Ongoing Phase 2 Clinical Trial.


But more on those in a second...


MAIA's First-In-Class Cancer Telomere Targeting Agent: THIO


THIO (aka 6-thio-dG, 6-thio-2’-deoxyguanosine) is a potentially first-in-class small molecule that is the only direct telomere targeting agent currently in clinical development.


Telomerase is present in >85% of human cancers and contributes significantly to the proliferation and reproductive immortality of cancer cells. THIO’s in vitro activity has been studied in models of several tumor types with active telomerase.


A New Therapeutic Strategy


THIO is recognized by telomerase and incorporated into telomeres in cancer cells. Once incorporated, THIO compromises the telomere structure and function, leading to ‘uncapping’ of the chromosome ends and thus resulting in rapid tumor cell death.


Low doses of THIO, followed by anti-PD-L1 or anti-PD1 therapy, completely eliminated advanced tumors in preclinical models in vivo, and produced cancer cell specific immune memory, where the immune system continued to be active against the cancer cells after extended periods of time, with no additional treatment.


These results demonstrate how the THIO-produced telomere stress increases innate sensing and adaptive anti-tumor immunity, which provides a strong rationale for sequentially combining their telomere-targeted therapy with immunotherapy (Mender et al., 2020).


Clinical Development


THIO-104 is a multicenter, open-label, randomized Phase 3 clinical trial, designed to evaluate ateganosine’s telomere-targeting anti-tumor activity when followed by PD-(L)1 inhibition in patients with advanced third-line NSCLC who previously did not respond or developed resistance to treatment regimens containing checkpoint inhibitor and/or chemotherapy and have progressed. The trial has two primary objectives: (1) to assess the clinical efficacy of ateganosine compared to investigator’s choice of chemotherapy, using median Overall Survival (OS) as the primary clinical endpoint (2) to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ateganosine in sequential combination with a checkpoint inhibitor.


Second-Generation


Telomere Targeting Agents


MAIA has initiated an early-stage research and discovery program aimed at identifying new compounds capable of acting through similar mechanisms of activity as THIO, such as the targeting and modifying telomeric structures of cancer cells through cancer-cell intrinsic telomerase activity. The main objective for this program is to discover new compounds with potentially improved specificity towards cancer cells relative to normal cells and with potentially increased anticancer activity.


MAIA's Pipeline


The company's pipeline includes several targeted immuno-oncology therapies for difficult-to-treat cancers:

As mentioned above, (NYSE American: MAIA) has several explosive potential catalysts to consider right now. Check these out:


#1. MAIA Potential Catalyst - One Analyst's Target Suggests Over 1,000% Potential Upside From MAIA's Current Chart Levels.


This month, Robert LeBoyer, Senior Vice President and equity research analyst with Noble Life Science Partners, reiterated a $14.00 target on MAIA.


From Tuesday's closing valuation, that provides MAIA with upside potential over 1,000%!


Check out some key report highlights:


Conclusion. Patients in the trial had advanced disease with relapsed NSCLC. We see these data as additional evidence of a sustainable response from combination treatment with ateganosine and cemiplimab. These data are consistent with prior findings showing improvements in overall survival, progression-free survival, and median survival in patients with ICI-resistant and chemo-resistant NSCLC. We are reiterating our Outperform rating and $14 price target.

-----


#2. MAIA Potential Catalyst - Another Analyst Target Suggests Over 700% Potential Upside From Tuesday's Close.


Last month, an analyst at Diamond Equity Research provided an update note on their (NYSE American: MAIA) coverage.


In the update, they retagged MAIA with a target of $10.27.


From Tuesday's close, that target provides MAIA with a potential upside of over 700%.


Here's some highlights from the report:


Valuation - Building on the strengthened balance sheet and improved funding visibility, we have revisited our underlying assumptions for THIO in NSCLC. We increase our probability of success (PoS) from 25% to 35%, reflecting the program’s advancement into a pivotal Phase 3 trial, supportive efficacy signals observed in earlier studies, and regulatory momentum, including Fast Track designation. In our view, the transition into a registrational study represents the achievement of a key clinical milestone and enhances visibility into the development pathway.


...


Based on these revised assumptions, alongside our updated comparable company analysis, we derive an illustrative valuation of $10.27 per share, contingent on successful execution by the company.

#3. MAIA Potential Catalyst - A Phase 2 Expansion Trial Into The U.S. Signals A Key Company Milestone.


MAIA Biotechnology Activates First U.S. Site for Ongoing International Phase 2 Expansion Trial of Novel Telomere Targeting Treatment Targeting Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer


Exceptional measures of efficacy observed in THIO-101 Phase 2 trial to date include disease control, response rates, and survival data well above standard of care benchmarks


50,000 advanced NSCLC diagnoses in the U.S. annually


CHICAGO, April 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MAIA Biotechnology, Inc. (NYSE American: MAIA) (“MAIA”, the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing targeted immunotherapies for cancer, today announced that it has activated the first U.S. clinical site in its Phase 2 THIO-101 expansion trial of its lead investigational therapy as a third-line (3L) treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).


We are thrilled to activate the expansion of our Phase 2 THIO-101 trial in the U.S., bringing our novel treatment to our country’s broad underserved NSCLC patient population. Every year, we estimate approximately 50,000 patients resistant to chemo and CPIs alone advance to third-line NSCLC in the U.S. The medical need is extensive,” said Vlad Vitoc, M.D., Founder and Chief Executive Officer of MAIA.


The trial’s expansion into the U.S. marks a key milestone for MAIA, which is expected to open a significantly larger patient pool for evaluation of ateganosine, a novel dual mechanism of action drug candidate incorporating telomere targeting and immunogenicity. In addition to the first location, Summit Medical Group in New Jersey, MAIA intends to open four additional sites in U.S. in 2026. The trial is ongoing in Europe and Asia with 44 active sites in 6 countries.

#5. MAIA Potential Catalyst - The Company Reports Overall Survival Beyond 2 Years For 8 Patients In Ongoing Phase 2 Clinical Trial.


MAIA Biotechnology Reports Overall Survival Exceeding Two Years for Eight Patients in Ongoing Phase 2 Clinical Trial in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer


Potential breakthrough therapeutic targets $50Bn+ global immunotherapy market


CHICAGO, March 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MAIA Biotechnology, Inc. (NYSE American: MAIA) (“MAIA”, the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing targeted immunotherapies for cancer, today announced highlights from a poster presented on March 27, 2026, at the European Lung Cancer Congress 2026 (ELCC), a premier thoracic oncology forum held March 25-28, 2026, in Copenhagen, Denmark.


MAIA reports overall survival (OS) beyond two years for eight patients treated with ateganosine sequenced with cemiplimab in Parts A and B of its ongoing Phase 2 THIO-101 clinical trial in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The patients did not receive subsequent lines of therapy.


The eight patients featured in the poster include:


  • 1 patient in third-line (3L) therapy with survival of 33 months. Expected survival in this heavily pre-treated population is 5.8 months.


  • 4 patients in 2L therapy with survival over 30 months. Documented OS for standard of care treatment (chemotherapy or checkpoint inhibitors alone) in second-line (2L) therapy is 10.5 months.


  • All patients have failed previous treatment (prior to THIO-101) with a checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) alone.


  • All patients completed 29-34 cycles of therapy, except for 1 patient who completed 2 cycles of therapy with survival follow-up of 725 off therapy.


  • 5 of the 8 patients have survival follow-up ongoing.


It’s very encouraging to see such outstanding survival from these patients extending beyond our 24-month trial protocol and without any subsequent treatment. OS surpassing two-years bodes well as we continue to monitor patients in our ongoing Phase 3 pivotal trial and in THIO-101 Part C,” said Vlad Vitoc, M.D., Founder and Chief Executive Officer of MAIA. “These results illuminate ateganosine’s valuable role in targeting telomeres to eliminate NSCLC tumor cells and support this treatment—ateganosine sequenced by a CPI—as a potential breakthrough therapeutic option for NSCLC.
