The decrease was primarily related to lower costs subsequent to the discontinuation of Caladrius&#8217; Intus Phase 3 clinical trial as well as decreased costs associated with our ischemic repair platform, compared to the prior year periods.  These decreases were partially offset by an increase in expenses related to the initiation of The Sanford Project: T-Rex Phase 2 Study in type 1 diabetes, as well as one-time restructuring costs for severance and asset impairments.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Selling, general and administrative (SG&amp;A) expenses decreased 42% to $6.5 million for the first quarter of 2016 compared with $11.1 million for the same period in 2015, which included expenses associated with executive management changes including one-time new hire compensation-related costs as well as separation-related costs.
