Lakewood-Amedex updates S-1, adds detail on Nu-3 pipeline and Series C conversion mechanics

The company's September 18, 2026 filing registers 4,512,400 more shares tied to Series C Preferred conversion and details its lead antibiotic candidate's trial progress.

Lakewood-Amedex Biotherapeutics Inc. filed a Form S-1 on September 18, 2026, registering additional shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of Series C Preferred Stock held by a selling stockholder from a private placement that closed on April 21, 20261. The new registration covers 4,512,400 shares.

The Series C Preferred converts at a price subject to a $1.00 per share floor, and when the company's one-for-ten reverse stock split took effect on June 19, 2026, that floor was not adjusted, which increased the maximum shares issuable on conversion.1 Since an earlier registration became effective, holders converted 322,061 Series C shares before the split and another 164,199 shares between June 22 and July 6, 2026, for a total of 486,260 shares converted into 937,500 shares of common stock.1 The company says it is now obligated to register shares covering the remaining 451,240 Series C shares, worth $4,512,400 at stated value, which at the $1.00 floor could require up to 4,512,400 additional common shares.1

On the clinical side, the filing details progress on lead candidate Nu-3, a topical Bisphosphocin antibacterial for infected diabetic foot ulcers. The company has completed early exploratory human trials and plans an initial Phase 2a safety and dose-response study followed by a placebo-controlled Phase 2b study to select a dose for Phase 3.1 The Phase 2a study (NCT0765506) has IRB approvals completed and is open and enrolling, comprising 24 patients across 2%, 5%, and 10% Nu-3 gel doses.1 The company plans to begin the open-label study immediately after the Series C financing and subsequent Nasdaq listing, with proceeds expected to fund completion of the Phase 2a study.1

Lakewood-Amedex trades on Nasdaq under "LABT," and its last reported sale price on September 17, 2026 was $1.86 per share.1 The company will not receive proceeds from the resale shares covered by the prospectus.1
