Comments from the CEO
"After strengthening our financial position through a rights issue, we are now focusing on advancing our epilepsy assets to provide clinical proof of concept for SAN711 and preparing SAN2355 for Phase 1, while we are exploring new partnership opportunities. With a strong efficacy and safety profile, and a potential approval in Mexico this year, tesofensine could address a significant medical need and generate new revenue streams for Saniona."
