Current report

Research and development expenses were $333,334 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $69,370, or 17.2%, compared to $402,704 for the same period in 2025. The decrease occurred despite the addition of a new drug candidate and was primarily driven by lower clinical trial and research-related costs due to reduced activity levels during the period, including manufacturing and development activities associated with the new drug candidate. The decrease was also attributable to lower payroll-related expenses and insurance costs. These decreases were partially offset by higher travel and entertainment expenses related to meetings with the University of Miami and Bascom Palmer.

Previous report

The Company held its annual meeting of stockholders on June 18, 2025. Stockholders authorized the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended by the Certificate of Designation of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock and Certificate of Designation of Series D-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificates of Designation”), to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, and Series D-1 Convertible Preferred Stock at a ratio of between 1-for-10 and 1-for-50, where the ratio would be determined by the Board at its discretion, and to make corresponding amendments to the Certificates of Designation to provide for the proportional adjustment of certain terms upon a reverse stock split, consistent with the Board’s recommendation. The Company’s stockholders also authorized the Board to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended by the Certificates of Designation, to decrease the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock and preferred stock by the same reverse stock split ratio determined by the Board, consistent with the Board’s recommendation. The Board has not acted on these stockholder authorizations as of the filing date.

Previous report

Research and development expenses were $345,861 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, representing a decrease of $68,126, or 16.5%, compared to $413,987 for the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by lower clinical trial and research expenses, reflecting reduced costs related to the manufacturing of a new drug, as well as a decline in insurance expense.

Previous report

The research and development tax credit in Australia decreased to $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $56 for the same period in 2024, a decrease of $56, or 100.0%. The decrease was due to the absence of active clinical trial activities in Australia during the 2025 period.

Previous report

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024

Previous report

The Company’s net loss increased by $1,972,071 or 83.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to a decline in grant revenue and higher operating expenses, as described below.

Previous report

Grant revenue was $336,108 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $602,808 for the same period in 2024, representing a decrease of $266,700, or 44.2%. The decrease was primarily attributable to the completion and full recognition of grant revenue under the awarded program through June 30, 2025.

Previous report

Research and development expenses were $1,628,848 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $186,399, or 12.9%, compared to $1,442,449 for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher clinical trial and research expenses related to ongoing manufacturing and development activities for a new drug candidate, as well as a rise in payroll and taxes and stock-based compensation reflecting higher personnel costs. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in insurance expense and the absence of depreciation and amortization expense recognized in the prior-year period, as the result of assets being fully depreciated.

Previous report

General and administrative expenses were $2,881,536 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $1,523,330, or 112.2%, compared to $1,358,206 for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to stock-based compensation expense recognized during the current period from stock options granted in December 2024, as well as higher directors’ fees driven by the reversal of $450,000 previously accrued director fees for Mr. Bruce Horowitz, our former COO, following his resignation on March 25, 2024, higher payroll and payroll taxes resulting from the addition of two new officers in April 2024, and other general and administrative costs, which were largely related to late fees on invoices. Additional increases included donations that were not incurred in the prior year. These increases were partially offset by lower legal fees related to patents and insurance expenses compared to the same period in 2024.

Previous report

The research and development tax credit in Australia decreased to $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $9,357 for the same period in 2024, a decrease of $9,357, or 100.0%. The decrease was due to the absence of active clinical trial activities in Australia during the 2025 period.
