Use of Proceeds and Company Profile
The company intends to use the net proceeds for funding research and development and clinical trials. Additional funds will be allocated to other working capital and general corporate purposes. Can-Fite is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing a pipeline of proprietary small molecule drugs targeting oncological and inflammatory diseases.
The Company’s lead drug candidate, Piclidenoson, recently reported topline results in a Phase 3 trial for psoriasis and commenced a pivotal Phase 3 trial. Can-Fite’s liver drug, Namodenoson, is being evaluated in a Phase III trial for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a Phase 2b trial for the treatment of MASH, and in a Phase 2a study in pancreatic cancer. Namodenoson has been granted Orphan Drug Designation in the U.S. and Europe and Fast Track Designation as a second line treatment for HCC by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. CF602, the Company’s third drug candidate, has shown efficacy in the treatment of erectile dysfunction.
How will the issuance of 3,183,476 new warrants at $2.50 impact existing shareholders' equity through potential dilution?
Will the $4.0 million in gross proceeds be sufficient to fund the completion of the pivotal Phase 3 trials for Piclidenoson and Namodenoson without further capital raises?
