Citius Pharmaceuticals reports Q3 EPS (6c) vs. (6c) last year

Reports $33.3M in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023; runway through August 2024. “I am pleased to report significant progress in our pipeline and positive milestones on multiple fronts. We believe we have achieved the minimum 92-event threshold required to complete the Phase 3 Mino-Lok trial, pending confirmation by a committee of independent reviewers. We have also made progress in other areas of our business, including announcing positive topline results for the Phase 2b Halo-Lido trial, extending our financial runway through August 2024 with a $15 million capital raise, and clarifying our path toward approval for LYMPHIR (denileukin diftitox),” stated Leonard Mazur, Chairman and CEO Officer of Citius. “Although we were disappointed to receive the FDA’s complete response letter for LYMPHIR, we are encouraged that no clinical data issues related to safety or efficacy were noted. Rather, the FDA focused primarily on enhanced product testing, which we are already addressing. We plan to work closely with the FDA in preparation for a Resubmission package. The timing of our contemplated spin-off of LYMPHIR will be adjusted in accordance with the asset’s regulatory path. Coupled with our recent financing, we believe we have sufficient funds to advance our pipeline, including efforts to remediate the CRL, and continue to prepare our commercial infrastructure for the ultimate launch of LYMPHIR, if approved,” added Mazur.
