Comments from the CEO
A major focus for for Initiator Pharma during the third quarter of 2019 has been the Phase 2a Proof-of-concept trial. Following the succefull completion of the Phase 1 clinical trial in healthy subjects in June 2019 the first patients of the phase 2a trial were dosed in July. While the recruitment of egible patinets has taken slighliy longer than anticipated we are confident that we will be able to report top-line results from the study before year-end.
Another focus for the Company has been the preparation of the IP2018 clinical trial application. We intend to finalize the application and submit it to regulatory authorities during quarter 1, 2020. The filing of the CTA will enable us to exercise the option agreement that we have for this asset with Saniona. This will significantly strenghten the Initiator Pharma pipeline.
