11. Risks and Uncertainties

COVID-19

The impact of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business and financial performance is uncertain and depends on various factors, including the duration of the pandemic, government restrictions and other actions, including relief measures and mass vaccination efforts, implemented to address the impact of the pandemic, and resulting impacts on the financial markets and overall economy. The imposition of directives by state and federal governments in the United States as well as governments in other regions of the world in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including in locations in which its Phase 3 clinical trial of uproleselan is being conducted, did previously result in some delays associated with the trial. COVID-19 infection rates continue to fluctuate, particularly with the emergence of variants and sub-variants, which could still negatively affect the completion of the trial on the timeline that the Company currently expects. The Company is unable to determine the extent of the impact of the pandemic on its operations and financial condition going forward. These developments are highly uncertain and unpredictable, and may materially adversely affect the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The Company continues to closely monitor the COVID-19 situation and any potential impact to its planned activities.
