Bullish Statements during Earnings call

Statement
We strongly believe that these changes, will significantly enhance the probability, of success of our current studies
So, we do believe that the quality is very, very good in this trial
So, I'm very confident that despite having some patients enrolled previously, I still think, we're going to be successful overall
Enrollment continues to steadily progress, and our ability, to leverage our close relationship, with the study site, is paying dividends
I think it's a very reasonable question, but I'm pretty confident, I would say I'm very confident that we should be successful
And we are confident that the, we are top line data in the second half of this year
Sergio Traversa Well, thank you, and in summary, we remain confident that, we do have an approvable drug in REL-1017, and are excited by the potential of our novel psilocybin, and derivative program
So that's another improvement we've made
We are continuing, to make solid progress in advancing the ongoing Phase 3 program, for REL-1017 in major depressive disorder, MDD, as well as in the promising preclinical novel psilocybin program, all of which I will briefly cover today
These initial promising preclinical results, support the therapeutic potential, of low chronic dose of psilocybin
And to close, I'm grateful to the Relmada team, for their continued hard work and dedication to executing on our mission
So, the screening process, it's going very, very well
Based on our current clinical development plan, our current cash position provides us, with ample runway into 2025
So, we feel confident that with these measures, we won't, what happened in the Study 301, will not happen again
As previously communicated, we have made critical changes to RELIANCE II, the ongoing study 302, a Phase 3 two-arm placebo-controlled pivotal study, evaluating REL-1017 25 milligrams, for adjunctive MDD, aimed at controlling placebo response, and improving the enrollment quality
That would be the minimum, right? We hope we can do better than that, based on the Phase 2 data, but that's a fair assumption
So I hope that helps
It's a good proxy, to be sure that the patient, is a real patient
But it's on track
As we said previously, based on - these data, low dose psilocybin could improve lipids and glucose, with potential fewer side effects, over other investigative treatment approaches such as GLP-1, glucagon, and GIP
Moreover, the ongoing initiative we put in place, to drive trial awareness with prospective patients, are also bearing fruit
Thanks everyone
The previous study, really was very close to being positive
And we'll try to do something that is, a reasonable, good way to get the drug approved in a relatively short amount of time
What we have noticed with the improvement on the protocol, clearly the screening failure, it went up significantly
Thank you very much to everyone
Thank you very much
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
       

Bearish Statements during earnings call

Statement
So the FDA, had concerns about that
And then if there's a site that has issues, we're actually stopping their enrollment
And then, there were a couple of issues there
And really the problem, was they didn't have a good story, for how two weeks of treatment, would hold a charge
For the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023, total research and development expense was approximately $14.8 million, as compared to $26.9 million, for the comparable period of 2022, a decrease of approximately $12.1 million
Actual results could differ materially, from those stated, or implied by these forward-looking statements, due to risks and uncertainties associated with the company's business
Total research and development expense, was approximately $54.8 million, as compared to $113.3 million, for the year ended December 31, 2022, representing a decrease of $58.5 million
And the screening failure for legitimate reasons, it's much higher
And what we have seen is that, there is a material decrease in body weight with no diet, with continuing the high fat, high glucose diet
For the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023, the net loss was $25.2 million, or $0.84, per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $37.9 million, or $1.28 per basic, and diluted share in the comparable period, of 2022
It just missed
So despite like high fat and high glucose diet, the rodent, they lost weight, not as much as a GLP-1, but enough to make it like a valuable drug, to treat obesity
Also, because the sites that, where the issue with data, was generated in the previous trials
For the year ended December 31, 2023, the net loss was approximately $98.8 million, or $3.28, per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $157 million, or $5.30, per basic and diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2022
We just have to be better
But at the same time, we have seen a material decrease in glucose level, like similarly, probably a little higher than metformin
