Current report
MASH
Current report
On June 26, 2025, we released 24-week topline efficacy results from IMPACT, a Phase 2b trial of pemvidutide in patients with MASH. The Phase 2b trial enrolled 212 subjects with biopsy-confirmed MASH and fibrosis stages F2/F3 with and without diabetes randomized 1:2:2 to receive weekly subcutaneous doses of pemvidutide at 1.2 mg, 1.8 mg or placebo. The topline 24-week data showed that treatment with pemvidutide achieved statistically significant improvements in MASH resolution without worsening of fibrosis, improvements in fibrosis without worsening of MASH, and statistically significant changes in well-established NITs of fibrosis, including ELF score and LSM compared with placebo at both doses.
Current report
On December 11, 2025, we held an End-of-Phase 2 meeting with the FDA to discuss and align on the parameters for a registrational Phase 3 trial of pemvidutide for MASH patients with moderate to advanced fibrosis with biopsy driven endpoints. The FDA agreed to the use of AIM-MASH AI Assist, the first FDA-qualified AI pathology tool for MASH clinical trials, in our Phase 3 trial. We received final minutes from the End-of-Phase 2 meeting in January 2026, which we believe describe a clear regulatory path for a Phase 3 trial in MASH. We also intend to seek scientific advice from European regulators to further inform the final Phase 3 protocol. SeeItem 1. Business for additional information.
Current report
On December 19, 2025, we announced positive 48-week topline results from the IMPACT Phase 2b trial of pemvidutide in patients with MASH. The topline 48-week data from the IMPACT trial showed that treatment with pemvidutide achieved statistically significant improvements across treatment arms versus placebo in the key anti-fibrosis NITs of ELF and LSM.
Current report
Additional Indications for Pemvidutide
Current report
On March 13, 2025, we announced that we are pursuing two additional indications for our lead product candidate, pemvidutide. The new indications are AUD and ALD.
Current report
AUD
Current report
On May 19, 2025, we announced the enrollment of the first subject in the RECLAIM Phase 2 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of pemvidutide in subjects with AUD. RECLAIM is a randomized, placebo-controlled trial conducted across approximately 15 sites in the United States, targeting enrollment of approximately 100 subjects.
Current report
On August 19, 2025, we announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted Fast Track designation to pemvidutide for the treatment of AUD. Fast Track designation is intended to accelerate the development and review of new drugs that target serious conditions and address unmet medical needs.
Current report
On November 3, 2025, we announced the completion of enrollment in the RECLAIM Phase 2 trial. Enrollment completed ahead of schedule, underscoring strong interest from the patient community in a new therapeutic option for AUD. We are on track to complete the 24-week treatment period and announce topline results in 2026.
Current report
ALD
Current report
On July 9, 2025, we announced the enrollment of the first patient in the RESTORE Phase 2 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of pemvidutide in subjects with ALD. RESTORE is a randomized, placebo-controlled trial enrolling approximately 100 patients across 34 sites in the United States. SeeItem 1. Business for additional information.

Recent Global Events
Current report
Tariffs and Inflation
Current report
The United States recently imposed reciprocal and additional tariffs on many countries around the world. Such tariffs and counter tariffs by other countries against the U.S. have been causing uncertainties in the global markets and supply chain. If the tariffs and counter tariffs continue or escalate, they could have a significant negative effect on the global economy or on our operations, including continued inflationary pressures on raw materials, supply chain and logistics disruptions, and volatility in the capital markets, foreign exchange rates and interest rates.
Current report
Inflation generally affects us by increasing our employee-related costs and clinical trial expenses, as well as other operating expenses. Our financial condition and results of operations may also be impacted by other factors we may not be able to control, such as public health crises, global supply chain disruptions, uncertain global economic conditions, global trade disputes or political instability as further discussed in the section "Risk Factors" in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Current report
The decrease in research and development expenses for MASH was primarily due to ongoing enrollment for the IMPACT Phase 2b trial in MASH during 2024 which was completed in early 2025. The decrease in other pemvidutide expenses was primarily due to a $5.7 million decrease in manufacturing expenses and a $2.1 million decrease due to winding down of GLP-1 and other nonclinical activities. These decreases were partially offset by the increase in expense associated with the start of the AUD and ALD trials.
Current report
Income tax expense (benefit)
Current report
During the year ended December 31, 2025, we have recorded a discrete tax benefit of approximately $0.7 million related to a portion of carryback claims with the State of Maryland, which we previously held an uncertain tax position against. Other than the discrete tax benefit discussed above, due to a full valuation allowance, the Company did not record an income tax expense (benefit) for either of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

End-of-Phase 2 Meeting
Previous report
On November 7, 2024, we announced the successful completion of our End-of-Phase 2 Meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) and agreement on the design of a Phase 3 registrational program for its product candidate, pemvidutide, in the treatment of obesity.
Previous report
The interaction with the FDA included an extensive review of the preclinical and clinical data generated to date, including data from six completed clinical trials of pemvidutide. The planned registrational program will include four Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trials, each evaluating treatment with pemvidutide over a 60-week period. The Phase 3 program is expected to enroll approximately 5,000 subjects across the four trials. The safety and efficacy of pemvidutide doses of 1.2 mg, 1.8 mg, and 2.4 mg will be evaluated with the intention of obtaining approval for all three doses. The Phase 3 program is designed to leverage the key attributes of pemvidutide, including the effects of balanced GLP-1/glucagon dual agonism in subjects with overweight and obesity.
Previous report
Pemvidutide – 12-Week Phase 1b trial
Previous report
On November 15, 2024, we presented new data derived from an analysis of plasma samples from subjects who completed a randomized placebo-controlled Phase 1b trial of pemvidutide in subjects with overweight or obesity and MASLD. In the Phase 1b clinical trial, 94 subjects with obesity or overweight and liver fat content (LFC) ≥10% were dosed 1:1:1:1 to pemvidutide (1.2mg, 1.8mg and 2.4mg) or placebo administered once-weekly subcutaneously for 12 weeks. In this study, pemvidutide reduced LFC relative to baseline by up to 68.5% and decreased total cholesterol and triglycerides by up to 12.2% and 44.6%, respectively, after 12 weeks of treatment.

Pemvidutide – MOMENTUM trial
Previous report
On September 10, 2024, we presented additional results of MRI-based body composition sub-study from our 48-week MOMENTUM Phase 2 obesity trial of pemvidutide in subjects with overweight and obesity at the 60 th annual meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes. The lean loss ratio, defined as the change in lean mass compared to the change in total mass, was 21.9%. Lean mass preservation was greater in subjects aged 60 years and older, in whom the lean loss ratio was only 19.9%. In addition to lean mass preservation, there was a preferential reduction of
Previous report
visceral adipose tissue (VAT), the adipose tissue associated with cardiovascular risk. At the 2.4mg dose of pemvidutide, VAT was reduced by 28.3% at week 48 compared to a 19.5% loss in subcutaneous adipose tissue.
Previous report
On June 23, 2024, we presented the full results of the body composition analysis from our 48-week MOMENTUM Phase 2 obesity trial of pemvidutide at the American Diabetes Association’s 84 th Annual Scientific Sessions. In an MRI sub-study of 67 subjects from the MOMENTUM Phase 2 obesity trial, 50 of whom were treated with pemvidutide for 48 weeks, 78.1% of weight loss was derived from adipose tissue and only 21.9% from lean mass. Historically, lean mass loss has been shown to be approximately 25% from diet and exercise programs.
Previous report
As announced in November 2023, the trial enrolled 391 subjects with obesity or overweight with at least one comorbidity and without diabetes. Subjects were randomized 1:1:1:1 to 1.2 mg, 1.8 mg, 2.4 mg pemvidutide or placebo administered weekly for 48 weeks in conjunction with diet and exercise. The 1.2 mg and 1.8 mg doses were administered without dose titration, while a short 4-week titration period was employed for the 2.4 mg dose. At baseline, subjects had a mean age of approximately 50 years, mean body mass index (BMI) of approximately 37 kg/m 2, and mean body weight of approximately 104 kg. Approximately 75% of subjects were female.

HepTcell
Previous report
On March 27, 2024, we announced that the overall response in the Phase 2 trial was deemed to be insufficient to warrant further advancement in clinical trials. As a result, any further development related to HepTcell has been stopped.
Previous report
We have not generated any revenue from the sale of any products to date. Our revenues in previous years consisted primarily of government and foundation grants and contracts that supported our efforts on specific research projects. These grants and contracts generally provided for reimbursement of approved costs as those costs were incurred by us. Research grants and contracts and the related accounts receivable were recognized as earned when reimbursable expenses were incurred and the performance obligation was complete. Payments received in advance of services being provided were recorded as deferred revenue. We recently closed out one of the remaining such contracts, and the revenue reported during the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily from the final indirect rate adjustments.
Previous report
Revenue
Previous report
The increase in research and development expenses for pemvidutide was primarily due to a $27.4 million increase related to the ramp up of the IMPACT Phase 2b trial in MASH, a $1.5 million increase for other clinical analysis, and a $2.2 million increase in nonclinical studies. These increases were partially offset by a $10.8 million reduction in expense associated with the MOMENTUM Phase 2 trial in obesity, which was ongoing during most of 2023 and wound down in the year ended December 31, 2023, and a $2.8 million reduction in expenses associated with the Phase 1 safety trial, which was substantially completed in 2023.
Previous report
The increase in other non-project specific research and development expenses was primarily due to a $1.6 million increase in stock compensation expense and a $1.3 million initial cost for additional research and discovery projects.
Previous report
Impairment loss on intangible asset
Previous report
Impairment loss on intangible asset of $12.4 million reported during the year ended December 31, 2023 represents a non-cash impairment charge recorded for the in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) asset associated with HepTcell (SeeNote 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies). There was no impairment charge reported during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The effects of material revisions in estimates, if any, will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements prospectively from the date of change in estimates.
