Item 7.01

Regulation FD Disclosure

On March 23, 2026, Moleculin Biotech, Inc. (the “Company”), issued a press release which announced that the 45 subject has been enrolled in its pivotal Phase 2B/3 MIRACLE trial evaluating Annamycin in combination with cytarabine (AnnAraC) for the treatment of adult subjects with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML). This milestone triggers the final phase of preparation for the trial’s highly anticipated interim 45 subject data unblinding, which remains on track for mid-2026 and represents a potentially defining inflection point for the Company.

A copy of the press release is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

The information contained in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be “filed” for the purpose of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), nor shall it be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), unless specifically identified therein as being incorporated by reference.
