In July 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a streamlined operating plan that includes the exploration of strategic alternatives focused on maximizing shareholder value. The Company concluded, following feedback from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, that the regulatory path forward for its lead product candidate uproleselan for the treatment of relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia would require an additional clinical trial. The decision was not related to any safety or medical issues or negative regulatory feedback related to the Company’s programs.

In connection with the streamlined operating plan approved by the Board, the Company has undertaken a corporate restructuring that includes a reduction in the Company’s workforce by 26 employees, or approximately 80% of its headcount. The Company anticipates recognizing approximately $3.6 million in total charges in connection with the headcount reduction, which costs are expected to be substantially recognized in the third quarter of 2024, with related cash payments expected to be paid out by the end of 2024. These charges will consist primarily of one-time severance payments upon termination and continued benefits for a specified period of time.
