10 Aug, 2026Executive summary
Entered into a merger agreement with Remix Therapeutics, expected to close in Q4 2026, with significant changes to business focus and management post-merger.

Research and development expenses decreased to $3.3 million in Q2 2026 from $5.8 million in Q2 2025; general and administrative expenses increased to $6.9 million from $4.5 million.
Recorded a $1.9 million net gain on lease termination in Q2 2026.
Outlook and guidance
Completion of the merger with Remix is critical for ongoing operations; failure to close may result in inability to continue as a going concern.
No guidance provided for future revenue due to wind-down of legacy programs and pending merger.
