International orders were expedited for certain distribution partners of $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2024 related to the BSI regulatory review process which has since been successfully appealed. Novel therapies net revenues increased by 49.9% to $0.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024 primarily driven by Phase III clinical trial orders and milestone completion from our collaboration agreements.
