7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On
April 9, 2026, Lantern Pharma Inc. (the “Company”) utilized a presentation to assist with the Company’s live demonstration
of withZeta.ai, the Company’s multi-agentic AI co-scientist for rare cancer drug discovery, development, and clinical trial
design. The demonstration included a discussion of the withZeta.ai platform’s capabilities and commercial architecture, the rare
cancer market opportunity, competitive positioning, and the Company’s near-term revenue strategy and growth roadmap relating to
the platform.
A
copy of the presentation is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
A
replay of the demonstration may be viewed at the following link:
https://us06web.zoom.us/rec/share/oknO9bzet1P8GX2zz_W4QtJJdz8EfbUIeG1upFkILKaOYmqeWpPsmtSiiHxypFzB.L9BTIvHNDAmc4BUH?startTime=1775737739000
The
information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section,
nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless
of any general incorporation language in such filings, unless expressly incorporated by specific reference in such filing.
Forward-Looking
Statements
The
presentation and live demonstration contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements include, among other
things, statements relating to: future events or our future financial performance; the potential advantages of our withZeta.ai platform
in identifying drug candidates, developing insights, accelerating drug development, and generating revenue through software licensing
and subscription models; our strategic plans to advance the development of our withZeta.ai platform and the expected market opportunity
for AI co-scientist platforms; estimates regarding the development timing for our withZeta.ai platform; our intention to leverage artificial
intelligence, machine learning and genomic data to streamline and transform the pace, risk and cost of oncology drug discovery and development
and to identify patient populations that would likely respond to a drug candidate.
Any
statements that are not statements of historical fact (including, without limitation, statements that use words such as “anticipate,”
“believe,” “contemplate,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,”
“seek,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,”
“target,” “model,” “objective,” “aim,” “upcoming,” “should,”
“will,” “would,” or the negative of these words or other similar expressions) should be considered forward-looking
statements. There are a number of important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by
the forward-looking statements, such as (i) the risk that we may not be able to secure sufficient future funding when needed and as required
to advance and support our withZeta.ai platform, (ii) the risk that our research and the research of users of withZeta.ai may not be
successful, (iii) the risk that we may not be successful in completing potential partnerships and collaborations, (iv) the risk that
our AI platform commercialization efforts, including withZeta.ai, may not generate the anticipated revenue or achieve the expected market
adoption, and (v) those other factors set forth in the Risk Factors section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2026.
You may access
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 under the investor SEC filings tab of our website at www.lanternpharma.com or
on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Given these risks and uncertainties, we can give no assurances that our forward-looking
statements will prove to be accurate, or that any other results or events projected or contemplated by our forward-looking statements
will in fact occur, and we caution investors not to place undue reliance on these statements. All forward-looking statements in the presentation
and live demonstration represent our judgment as of the date thereof, and, except as otherwise required by law, we disclaim any obligation
to update any forward-looking statements to conform the statement to actual results or changes in our expectations.
