We have focused our efforts on developing selective compounds targeting challenging molecular pathways and have built a portfolio of small molecule drug candidates. We believe our two clinical stage, internally-discovered drug candidates, PIPE-791 and PIPE-307, will have broad applicability across multiple NI&I indications. We are developing PIPE-307 in collaboration with J&J.

Previous wording
Our wholly-owned lead asset, PIPE-791, is a novel, brain penetrant, small molecule inhibitor of the lysophosphatidic acid 1 receptor (“LPA1R”) in development for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (“IPF”) and chronic pain. LPA1R antagonism is a clinically validated mechanism in IPF, and we believe that our preclinical studies and Phase 1 healthy volunteer data support the development of PIPE-791 for IPF and chronic pain. Specifically, based on its high bioavailability, low plasma protein binding, and long receptor occupancy time in our preclinical studies compared to the preclinical data of other LPA1R antagonists, we believe PIPE-791 has the potential to be a differentiated LPA1R therapy. We have completed a Phase 1 clinical trial of PIPE-791 in healthy volunteers in support of clinical development in IPF and chronic pain as well as a Phase 1b open-label trial to measure the relationship of pharmacokinetics (“PK”) to lung and brain receptor occupancy by positron emission tomography (“PET”) imaging to inform dose selection in our future Phase 2 trials of PIPE-791. We plan to initiate a global Phase 2 clinical trial in IPF in the fourth quarter of 2025. In March 2025, we announced the initiation of patient dosing in an exploratory PIPE-791 Phase 1b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover, chronic pain trial for the treatment of chronic pain associated with two separate indications, chronic osteoarthritis and chronic low back pain. We expect to enroll approximately 40 patients at up to five sites in the U.S., and a treatment duration of 28 days. We anticipate topline data from this trial in the first half of 2026.

Specifically, based on its high bioavailability, high selectivity, low plasma protein binding, and long receptor residence time, we believe PIPE-791 has the potential to be a differentiated LPA1R therapy. In September 2025, we reported positive top-line data from our completed Phase 1b PET trial which measured the relationship of pharmacokinetics to receptor occupancy (“RO”) by PET imaging. The data from the Phase 1b PET trial further affirmed the planned dose selection for our Phase 2 trial of PIPE-791 in IPF, which was initiated in December 2025. In the fourth quarter of 2025, we completed enrollment for a Phase 1b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study which was designed to explore the safety and efficacy of oral PIPE-791 in subjects with chronic osteoarthritic pain or chronic low back pain. We announced positive topline data from this trial in April 2026. The Phase 1b trial achieved its primary endpoint demonstrating favorable safety and tolerability. We also observed encouraging trends across multiple exploratory efficacy endpoints including improvements in measures of pain, and other functional patient-reported outcomes. We believe these results support further evaluation of PIPE-791 in chronic pain.

Our second drug candidate, PIPE-307, is a novel, small molecule selective inhibitor of the muscarinic type 1 receptor (“M1R”), in development for depression and relapse-remitting multiple sclerosis (“RRMS”). We have completed two Phase 1 trials of PIPE-307 in healthy volunteers. In 2023, we initiated a Phase 2 VISTA trial of PIPE-307 for the potential treatment of RRMS. In January 2025, we announced that we have fully enrolled our Phase 2 VISTA trial. We expect the topline data from this trial will be available in the fourth quarter of 2025. In December 2024, J&J began recruiting an estimated 124 adult participants for a Phase 2 trial of PIPE-307/JNJ-89495120 for the potential treatment of major depressive disorder (“MDD”). This trial is a randomized, double-blind, multi-center, placebo-controlled, proof-of-concept study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of PIPE-307/JNJ-89495120 as monotherapy in adult participants with MDD. We believe PIPE-307 is the most advanced selective M1R antagonist in clinical development.

Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (i) December 31, 2029, the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of the IPO, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year (a) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion or (b) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30th, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

We have elected to use this extended transition period under the JOBS Act until the earlier of the date we (1) are no longer an emerging growth company or (2) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have more than $1.235 billion in annual gross revenue; (ii) the date we qualify as a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, with at least $700 million of equity securities held by non-affiliates; (iii) the issuance, in any three-year period, by us of more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities; or (iv) December 31, 2029, the last day of the fiscal year ending after the fifth anniversary of our IPO.

We are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined in the Exchange Act. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company even after we are no longer an emerging growth company. We have elected to take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies and will be able to take advantage of these scaled disclosures for so long as the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter, or our annual revenue is less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter.
Current wording
We are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined in the Exchange Act. Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we may continue to qualify as a “smaller reporting company,” which would allow us to take advantage of many of the same exemptions from disclosure requirements, if either (i) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) our annual revenue is less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million.
