R&D Day summary
8 Jul, 2026Pipeline overview and program updates
AmorphOX technology is the core focus, supporting nasal and oral drug delivery for peptides, proteins, vaccines, and overdose countermeasures, with both proprietary and partnered projects.
Key late-stage assets include OX640 (nasal epinephrine), OX390 (atipamezole for opioid/xylazine/medetomidine overdose), and IZIPRY (naloxone nasal powder).
Zubsolv divestment provided $91 million and future earn-outs, funding R&D, restructuring, and enabling a strategic shift to platform and development focus.
Multiple feasibility studies and collaborations are ongoing to expand AmorphOX applications and partnerships.
Three business pillars: Explore (early-stage), Develop (clinical-stage), and Partner (feasibility/service agreements).
Clinical trial data and development milestones
IZIPRY is expected to be refiled with the FDA after summer or in Q3 2026, aiming for approval early next year.
OX640 will enter its first human study with the final commercial dose in Q4, with pivotal trial initiation planned for Q4 2026.
OX390 is undergoing in vivo studies, with results expected in the summer and a first clinical study planned.
AmorphOX-based GLP-1 and vaccine projects are in preclinical proof-of-concept stages, showing improved nasal absorption, thermostability, and supporting animal/stability data.
OX640 demonstrates rapid onset, high stability, and extended absorption in preliminary PK studies.
R&D strategy and innovation priorities
Focused on de-risking AmorphOX by generating in vivo and human data to attract partners and maximize value.
Strategic prioritization of GLP-1s, vaccines, and new AmorphOX applications as high-potential use cases.
Iterative, data-driven approach to project selection and advancement, leveraging external expert input and enforcing go/no-go decisions.
Emphasis on accelerating R&D in amorphous powder drug delivery and expanding biomolecule research.
