Nature of Operations [Text Block] | 1. Organization and Description of Business Diffusion Pharmaceuticals Inc., a Delaware corporation, an innovative biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapies that enhance the body's ability to deliver oxygen to the areas where it is needed most. The Company's lead product candidate, TSC, is being developed to enhance the diffusion of oxygen to tissues with low oxygen levels, also known as hypoxia, a serious complication of many of medicine's most intractable and difficult-to-treat conditions. In addition to TSC, the Company's product candidate DFN- 529, a novel, allosteric PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway inhibitor, is in early-stage development. The Company previously completed two Phase 1 clinical trials evaluating DFN- 529 in age-related macular degeneration. DFN- 529 was also previously in preclinical development in oncology, specifically GBM.
