RAMAT GAN, Israel, Dec. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Can-Fite BioPharma Ltd. (NYSE American: CANF) (TASE: CANF), a biotechnology company advancing a pipeline of proprietary small-molecule drugs targeting oncological and inflammatory diseases, today announced that the Brazilian Patent Office (INPI) has granted Patent No. BR112015002697-4, entitled “Use of an A3 Adenosine Receptor Agonist for the Treatment of Sexual Dysfunction.”

The granted patent provides intellectual-property protection in Brazil for the use of Can-Fite’s proprietary A3AR agonists in the treatment of sexual dysfunction, further strengthening the Company’s global patent portfolio. Brazil represents one of the largest pharmaceutical markets in Latin America, with a growing demand for innovative therapies addressing sexual health conditions.

Sexual dysfunction is associated with vascular, inflammatory, and metabolic pathways. Preclinical and clinical data generated by Can-Fite suggest that activation of the A3 adenosine receptor may modulate key signaling mechanisms involved in erectile and sexual function, supporting the therapeutic rationale underlying the patent.

“The grant of this Brazilian patent further validates the therapeutic versatility of A3 adenosine receptor agonists and expands our intellectual-property footprint in a major pharmaceutical market,” said Pnina Fishman, Ph.D., Chairperson and Chief Scientific Officer of Can-Fite BioPharma. “This patent complements our broader clinical and preclinical programs and may create future partnering or commercialization opportunities in Latin America.”

Can-Fite continues to advance its A3AR agonist platform across multiple indications, including oncology, inflammatory diseases, and additional non-oncologic conditions, while actively evaluating strategic opportunities to maximize the value of its patent estate.
