(NYSE: NSRX) ("Nasus", “Nasus Pharma” or the "Company"), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the development of innovative intranasal products, today announced the appointment of pharma industry veteran Brendan P. O'Grady as its Chief Executive Officer.

Mr. O'Grady succeeds Dan Teleman, with the leadership transition effective July 27, 2026. “Brendan’s appointment reflects the Board’s commitment to advance Nasus to its next phase of growth, and represents a significant milestone in the Company’s evolution,” said Udi Gilboa, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Nasus Pharma. “As we advance NS002 toward a pivotal trial in the fourth quarter of 2026 and topline data readout the first quarter of 2027, our strategic focus is increasingly centered on pre-commercial planning. Brendan brings strategic vision, extensive experience in payors and reimbursement, and proven commercial leadership required to develop and execute this strategy. We are delighted to welcome Brendan to the Nasus team." “On behalf of the Board of Directors, I also extend our thanks to Dan Teleman for his service and many contributions to Nasus, and wish him continued success in his future endeavors," concluded Mr. Gilboa. "I am thrilled to be joining Nasus at such an important stage in the Company's development,” said Mr. O’Grady. "NS002 presents an opportunity to address a significant unmet medical need in the treatment of anaphylaxis and represents a growing $2 billion market opportunity. In a market currently dominated by injectables, NS002’s rapid onset and intranasal administration offer patients and caregivers a potentially superior alternative for treating severe allergic reactions. Based on my 35 years of experience leading commercial strategy and go-to-market programs, I believe the Nasus portfolio represents a significant value generation opportunity, and I look forward to working with the entire Nasus leadership team to deliver the therapeutic promise of these assets to patients in need.” Mr. O'Grady is a highly accomplished pharmaceutical executive with more than three decades of global leadership experience spanning corporate strategy, business development, commercialization, market access, strategic partnerships and global product launches.
