Shots:

• The P-II/III study evaluates opaganib +SoC vs PBO + SoC in a ratio (1:1) in 475 patients with COVID-19 pneumonia requiring hospitalization & treatment with supplemental oxygen
• The preliminary data showed that the study did not meet its 1EPs while efficacy EPs showed consistent trends. The therapy demonstrated good tolerability with balanced AEs & increased the benefit for patients requiring less oxygen at earlier stages of the disease
• Opaganib is an SK2 selective inhibitor with dual anti-inflammatory & antiviral activity. The therapy has been approved in South Africa & expansion within the US while the company plans to discuss data with regulators to determine the next steps
