Current report

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. For a detailed discussion of the risks and uncertainties related to our business, please refer to the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2024. There have been no material changes from the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Previous report

Except as described below, there have been no material changes in or additions to the risk factors included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2024 or our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Previous report

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern,” and we will require substantial additional funding to finance our near- and long-term operations. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we have delayed, and could be forced to further delay, reduce or terminate certain of our products or other operations.

Previous report

We have incurred substantial operating losses since inception and expect to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future. As of September 30, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $0.4 million and have sustained cumulative losses attributable to common stockholders of approximately $190.1 million.

Previous report

Based on our cash on hand at November 13, 2024, we anticipate having sufficient cash to fund planned operations into December 2024. The acceleration or reduction of cash outflows by management can significantly impact the timing for the need to raise additional capital to complete development of our products. We believe that we will need to raise substantial additional capital in the near term to fund our continuing operations, satisfy existing and future obligations and liabilities, and otherwise support our working capital needs and business activities. In order to manage our operating costs, we have paused development activities for Latiglutenase, Capeserod and Adrulipase, and we are exploring strategic alternatives for Latiglutenase and Niclosamide.

Previous report

We have not yet achieved profitability and anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future. We expect that our expenses will continue to grow and, as a result, we will need to generate significant product revenues to achieve profitability. We may never achieve profitability. Therefore, we are dependent on obtaining, and are continuing to pursue, the necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of securities in order to continue our operations. We are actively working to obtain additional funding. However, there are currently no commitments in place for further financing nor is there any assurance that such financing will be available to us on favorable terms, if at all. We believe these conditions may raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to secure additional capital, we may be required to delay or curtail any future development of products, and we may take additional measures to reduce expenses in order to conserve our cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet our obligations. This would negatively impact our business and operations, which would likely cause the price of our Common Stock to decline or ultimately force us to cease our operations.

Previous report

We have recently rationalized our operations and may further rationalize or terminate our operations if we cannot obtain sufficient capital.

Previous report

We are dependent on obtaining, and are continuing to pursue, the necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of securities in order to continue our operations. We have no committed source of additional capital and if we are unable to raise additional capital in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, we may be forced to delay, reduce or terminate our business activities.

Previous report

As of December 31, 2023, we had 9 employees, which increased to 15 employees in March 2024 following the IMGX Merger. In connection with certain cost reduction measures we have taken, on July 16, 2024, we reduced our headcount to 11 employees, and Dr. Syage agreed to reduce his annual base salary to $66,560, effective July 1, 2024. On August 1, 2024, in order to further reduce costs and conserve resources, we approved the termination of all non-essential employees.

Previous report

On August 2, 2024, in connection with the reduction in workforce, the Board approve the termination of (i) the employment agreement with our Chief Executive Officer, James Sapirstein (the “Sapirstein Employment Agreement”), and (ii) the offer letter between us and our President, Jack Syage. In connection with the termination of the Sapirstein Employment Agreement, on August 2, 2024, we entered into a consulting agreement with Mr. Sapirstein (the “Sapirstein Consulting Agreement”), whereby he will continue to serve as our Chief Executive Officer, and pursuant to which Mr. Sapirstein will be paid $400 an hour monthly for services rendered to us. The Sapirstein Consulting Agreement has an initial term of six months, is subject to early termination by either party for any reason at any time, and may be extended on a month-to-month basis upon mutual agreement after the expiration of the initial six-month term.

Previous report

Additionally, on August 2, 2024, as part of the reduction in workforce described above, the Board approved the payout of unused vacation time for all employees accrued through August 1, 2024, including Mr. Sapirstein, Dr. Syage, and our Chief Financial Officer, Sarah Romano. We paid Mr. Sapirstein, Dr. Syage, and Ms. Romano $69,230, $1,920, and $45,590, respectively, to compensate for their unused vacation time accrued through August 1, 2024.

Previous report

As a result of the rationalization, we have paused research and development activities for our Latiglutenase, Adrulipase and Capeserod product candidates and any other non-essential research and development activities and have paused or terminated third party service arrangements related thereto. We are exploring strategic alternatives for Niclosamide and are evaluating all potential strategic options, including a merger, reverse merger, sale, wind-down, liquidation and dissolution or other strategic transaction, including a potential sale or wind-down of the IMGX assets and liabilities. Additionally, there can be no assurances that any particular course of action, business arrangement or transaction, or series of transactions, will be pursued, successfully consummated or lead to increased stakeholder value or that we will make any cash distributions to our stockholders. Any failure in these efforts could force us to delay, limit or terminate our operations, make reductions in our workforce, discontinue our research and development programs, liquidate all or a portion of our assets or pursue other strategic alternatives, and/or seek protection under the provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

Previous report

Due to the significant resources required for the development of our product candidates, we must prioritize development of certain product candidates and/or certain disease indications, and deprioritize others. We may expend our limited resources, as they become available, on candidates or indications that do not yield a successful product and fail to capitalize on product candidates or indications that may be more profitable or for which there is a greater likelihood of success.

Previous report

Our goal is to develop a pipeline of product candidates to treat GI and other diseases. Due to the significant resources required for the development of product candidates, we must focus our attention and resources on specific diseases and/or indications and decide which product candidates to pursue and the amount of resources to allocate to each. We intend to focus our resources, as they become available, on the development of our product candidates Adrulipase and Capeserod.

Previous report

Our decisions concerning the allocation of research, development, collaboration, management and financial resources toward particular product candidates or therapeutic areas may not lead to the development of any viable commercial product and may divert resources away from better opportunities. Similarly, any decision to delay, terminate or collaborate with third parties in respect of certain programs or product candidates may subsequently prove to be suboptimal and could cause us to miss valuable opportunities. If we make incorrect determinations regarding the viability or market potential of any of our programs or product candidates or misread trends in the GI, CF, CP, COVID-19, ICI-AC or biotechnology industry, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. As a result, we may fail to capitalize on viable commercial products or profitable market opportunities, be required to forego or delay pursuit of opportunities with other product candidates or other diseases and indications that may later prove to have greater commercial potential than those we choose to pursue, or relinquish valuable rights to such product candidates through collaboration, licensing or other royalty arrangements in cases in which it would have been advantageous for us to invest additional resources to retain development and commercialization rights.
