Item 8.01
Other Events.
As previously announced, Tenax Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) is enriching its LEVEL-2 clinical trial based on key learnings from its recently completed Phase 3 LEVEL trial of TNX-103 in PH-HFpEF. The Company intends to amend LEVEL-2 enrollment criteria, as set forth in the attached Investor Presentation. To maximize the enrollment of these patients, whom LEVEL results suggest are those most likely to demonstrate improved exercise tolerance in the primary endpoint of LEVEL-2, the Company has temporarily paused enrollment in LEVEL-2. Enrollment may resume at each site as the amended protocol goes into effect there. The Company has requested a Type C meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to discuss the overall development of levosimendan. The Company’s corporate presentation, which it intends to use with investors and analysts, has been updated to address these matters and is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Forward-Looking Statements Disclaimers
Except for historical information, all of the statements, expectations and assumptions contained in this presentation are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our
expectations about the design, enrollment, conduct, timing, and potential outcomes of the LEVEL-2 clinical trial; interpretations of clinical data from the LEVEL trial, including subgroup and post-hoc analyses, and the applicability of those data to
the design and expected performance of LEVEL-2; our beliefs about the potential efficacy, safety, and regulatory path for oral levosimendan; our estimates of the potential market opportunity for our product candidates; our intellectual property
position; our projected cash runway and ability to fund operations. Actual results might differ materially from those explicit or implicit in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
include: risks of our clinical trials, including, but not limited to, the timing, delays, costs, design, location, initiation, enrollment, and results of such trials, including that the Phase 3 LEVEL trial did not meet its primary endpoint of change
in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) in the overall enrolled population; the risk that the Company's interpretation and characterization of clinical trial data, may not be shared by regulatory authorities, the medical and scientific communities, or
investors, and that data from the LEVEL trial that the Company views as supportive of its LEVEL-2 trial design might not be predictive of LEVEL-2 outcomes; any delays in regulatory review and approval of product candidates in development; risks
related to our business strategy, including the prioritization and development of product candidates; reliance on third parties, including Orion Corporation, our manufacturers and CROs; risks regarding the formulation, production, marketing,
customer acceptance and clinical utility of our product candidates; the potential advantages of our product candidates; our competitive position; intellectual property risks; our ability to maintain our culture and recruit, integrate and retain
qualified personnel and advisors, including on our Board of Directors; volatility and uncertainty in the global economy and financial markets in light of unexpected changes in tariffs and the possibility of pandemics, global financial and
geopolitical uncertainties, including in the Middle East and the Russian invasion of and war against the country of Ukraine; risks associated with our cash needs; changes in legal, regulatory and legislative environments in the markets in which we
operate and the impact of these changes on our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our products; and other risks and uncertainties set forth from time to time in our SEC filings. All forward-looking statements in this presentation speak only
as of the date of this presentation and are based on the Company's current expectations and assumptions. Tenax Therapeutics assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements except as required by law. This
presentation shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of the Company.

LEVEL Confirms the Biological Thesis PRIMARY ENDPOINT MISSED ON PATIENT SELECTION, NOT ON DRUG EFFECT: LEVEL-2 IS DE-RISKED AS A RESULT THE BIOLOGY IS CONFIRMED THE MISS IS EXPLAINED LEVEL-2 IS DE-RISKED Bi-ventricular disease, bi-ventricular effect
PH-HFpEF combines volume overload on both sides of the heart, with preload on the left ventricle and afterload and elevated PA pressure on the right. TNX-103 effect on both ventricles demonstrated across numerous echocardiographic parameters.
Preload down Site-specific splanchnic venodilation cut cardiac wall stress 49% (NT-proBNP), by dramatically lowering filling pressures. Pulmonary pressure down RVSP fell 3.5 mmHg over 12 weeks in overall population, and 4.9 mmHg in the
below-the-median population, in LEVEL (p-value 0.009). Design, not drug The neutral primary result reflects a protocol design flaw, not an ineffective drug: too many patients walked too far at baseline to improve. A clear gradient Δ6MWD rises
as baseline walk falls. The most limited patients gained more than 26 M in 12 weeks, tracking HELP (p = 0.0112). Not a chance finding Baseline 6MWD, NT-proBNP and RVSP analyses converge on the same responder population. Selection now defined
Enrichment is set by observed data, not assumption. LEVEL-2 population’s baseline disease severity predicts a significant, clinically meaningful primary endpoint benefit. Safety supports it Treatment-emergent AEs were similar in patients above
and below the median baseline walk. More to come Protocol design paper, primary publication and further analyses through 1H 2027.

reduction aligns with the improvement in 6MWD improvement Magnitude of improvement in 6MWD is consistent with Phase 2 HELP trial Treatment effect is additive to GLP-1s and guideline-directed medical therapy for HFpEF Other PAH and PH-HFpEF studies

What LEVEL Tells Us KEY LEARNINGS
FROM THE FIRST PHASE 3 TRIAL *Prespecified analysis; nominal p-values are not adjusted for multiplicity. PK: pharmacokinetics; NT-proBNP: N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide; RVSP: right ventricular systolic pressure; HELP: Hemodynamic
Evaluation of Levosimendan in Patients with PH-HFpEF; 6MWD: 6-minute walk distance; CI: confidence interval; RAVI: right atrial volume index. LEVEL did not meet its primary endpoint, but a strong treatment effect was seen across patients with higher
disease burden What we confirmed Oral levosimendan is safe and well-tolerated, with 1 mg BID/TID providing PK concentrations expected Targeting volume overload with K-ATP channel activation has direct effects on NT-proBNP and RVSP, two prespecified
endpoints Treatment effect seen in HELP study validated Successful trial execution by sites and clinical development team What we learned Drug effect is evident in patients with higher disease burden Study entry criteria allowed patients with
moderate disease and little room to improve in 6MWD In patients with baseline 6MWD* < 333 m, treatment effect was +26.3 m vs placebo (95% CI: 6.0, 46.7; nominal p = 0.0112) In patients with baseline 6MWD* ≤ 300 m, or 300 m ≤ 6MWD
≤ 400 m & RAVI ≥ 25 mL/m2, treatment effect was +34 m vs placebo (95% CI: 15, 53; nominal p = 0.001) In the overall population, NT-proBNP was reduced by 49% vs placebo (nominal p < 0.0001) Amending LEVEL-2 to enrich on baseline
6MWD and RAVI WHAT WE ARE DOING NOW
Building on LEVEL A DATA-DRIVEN
ENRICHMENT STRATEGY FOR LEVEL-2 6MWD: 6-minute walk distance; RAVI: right atrial volume index; CI: confidence interval; PH: pulmonary hypertension; HF: heart failure. Multivariable analyses were used to identify a sub-population with strong
treatment effects. 6MWD at baseline and Right Atrial Volume Index (RAVI) were the most robust and consistent predictors of treatment response RAVI reflects the size of the right atrium in relation to body surface area, and identifies those LEVEL
patients with higher exercise capacity (walking 300m to 400m at baseline) most likely to benefit from treatment with levosimendan Baseline 6MWD and RAVI requirements for LEVEL-2 are drawn from the LEVEL population with the strongest treatment effect
Tenax intends to Amend the LEVEL-2 protocol to enrich the population for patients with high likelihood of demonstrating greater treatment effects resulting from their volume overload and demonstrated by more pronounced exercise impairment at
baseline Enriched LEVEL-2 entry criterion: [100m ≤ 6MWD ≤ 300m] OR [300m < 6MWD ≤ 400m AND RAVI ≥ 25 mL/m2] In LEVEL patients meeting these criteria: > 34 meters vs placebo at Week 12 (95% CI: +15 M, +53 M; nominal p =
0.001) > 50% of LEVEL patients meet these criteria
Right Atrial Volume Index (RAVI)
Identifies Patients with Strong Response to a Volume-Reduction Strategy The excess blood entering the heart initially enters the right atrium, where the effect of this excess can be measured during a right heart catheterization (RHC) as right atrial
pressure (RAP) LEVEL and LEVEL-2 participation requires an RAP of at least 8 mmHg on entry. Normal resting RA pressure is 5 mmHg, and the upper limit of normal is 8 mmHg Right atrial volume index (RAVI) is an echo measure of RA size. Normal RAVI is
25 for men and 21 for women, with an upper limit of normal of 30 for both Analysis of LEVEL data demonstrates: a baseline 6MWD ≤ 300m predicts a strong response to levosimendan a baseline 6MWD of >300 – 400m and a RAVI ≥25 mL/m2
predict a strong response to levosimendan RAVI: right atrial volume index; PH-HFpEF: pulmonary hypertension in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction; MOA: mechanism of action; 6MWD: 6-minute walk distance. LEVEL results enable the
identification of patients most likely to have a robust response to levosimendan as those with qualifying hemodynamics, and a baseline 6MWD ≤300 meters, or a 6MWD of >300 – ≤400 meters with a RAVI ≥25 mL/m2 The primary
driver of PH-HFpEF is excessive blood volume filling the heart and lungs The established MOA of levosimendan in patients with PH-HFpEF is dilation of the veins of the splanchnic circulation, thereby reducing this excessive volume
LEVEL-2 Update: Protocol Amendment
Implementation TEMPORARY ENROLLMENT PAUSE; FDA INTERACTIONS FDA: U.S. Food and Drug Administration; PH-HFpEF: pulmonary hypertension in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Effective execution of the Amended LEVEL-2 protocol requires a
temporary pause in enrollment Timely: pause in screening and randomization instituted upon confirmation of enrichment strategy, to maximize enrollment of patients with these enrichment factors. LEVEL analyses demonstrate these patients stand to
benefit most from treatment with levosimendan: those who demonstrated higher disease burden at baseline according to the most robust factors predicting improvement in exercise tolerance. Echocardiography collected at screening will be centrally
reviewed to confirm eligibility Temporary: pause in enrollment will be limited to the time required to institute this Amendment. It is estimated less than 5% of LEVEL-2 patients to be included in the primary efficacy analysis will have been enrolled
without meeting the stricter criteria in the Amended protocol Not safety-related: temporary pause in enrollment does not affect the ongoing treatment of patients enrolled in Q1-Q3 2026, who remain blinded for one year, and then can continue in
LEVEL-SET. The enrollment pause is not related to a concern about safety, nor was it made in response to any request from a regulatory authority FDA interactions Topline LEVEL results were shared with FDA in mid-August Tenax has since requested a
Type C meeting to discuss the overall development of levosimendan in PH-HFpEF Publication of the LEVEL-2 protocol design paper is expected in Q1 2027 Further updates on levosimendan development are expected in Q1 2027
