    clinical-stage company developing therapeutics designed to treat gastrointestinal (GI) diseases in areas of high unmet need. Our lead
    clinical development candidates are: (1)&nbsp;SYN-004 (ribaxamase) which is designed to degrade certain commonly used intravenous (IV)&nbsp;beta-lactam
    antibiotics within the GI tract to prevent microbiome damage,&nbsp;<I>Clostridioides difficile</I>&nbsp;infection (CDI), overgrowth of
    pathogenic organisms, the emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and acute graft-versus-host-disease (aGVHD) in allogeneic hematopoietic
    cell transplant (HCT) recipients, and (2)&nbsp;SYN-020, a recombinant oral formulation of the enzyme intestinal alkaline phosphatase (IAP)
    produced under cGMP conditions and intended to treat both local GI and systemic diseases.</P>

    <P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; background-color: white">We plan to explore and
    evaluate a range of strategic options, which may include: in-licensing opportunities; evaluation of potential acquisitions; or other potential
    strategic transactions. In the meantime, we remain focused on working with our clinical development partners to advance the planned Phase
    1b/2a clinical trial of SYN-004 (ribaxamase) in allogeneic HCT patients, and advancing the clinical development program for SYN-020 intestinal
    alkaline phosphatase (IAP) in multiple potential indications.</P>

    assess the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are in close contact with our clinical development partners in order to assess
    the impact of COVID-19 on our studies and current timelines and costs. While we currently do not anticipate any interruptions in our operations
    due to COVID-19, it is possible that if the COVID-19 pandemic were to increase in severity for an extended period of time, we could once
    again experience delays in our clinical trials which could result in significant disruptions to our clinical development timelines due
    to the COVID-19 pandemic, which would adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.</P>

    of COVID-19 as well as public health directives and orders, we have implemented a number of measures designed to ensure employee safety
    and business continuity. We have limited access to our offices and are allowing our administrative employees to continue their work outside
    of our offices in order to support the community efforts to reduce the transmission of COVID-19 and protect employees, complying with
    guidance from federal, state and local government and health authorities. The full extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak will directly
    or indirectly impact our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain
    and cannot be accurately predicted. The effects of the governmental orders and our work-from-home policies may negatively impact productivity,
    disrupt our business and delay our clinical programs and timelines, the magnitude of which will depend, in part, on the length and severity
    of the restrictions and other limitations on our ability to conduct our business in the ordinary course.</P>

    was incorporated in 1986, and in 2006 engaged in a reverse merger with Pipex Therapeutics,&nbsp;Inc., a Delaware corporation formed in
    2001. After the merger, we changed our name to Pipex Pharmaceuticals,&nbsp;Inc., and in October&nbsp;2008 we changed our name to Adeona
    Pharmaceuticals,&nbsp;Inc. On October&nbsp;15, 2009, we engaged in a merger with a wholly owned subsidiary for the purpose of reincorporating
    in the State of Nevada. After reprioritizing our focus on the emerging area of synthetic biologics and entering into our first collaboration
    with Intrexon, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to Synthetic Biologics,&nbsp;Inc. on February&nbsp;15, 2012.</P>

of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described below
and any related free writing prospectus, and discussed under the section entitled &ldquo;Risk Factors&rdquo; contained in our most recent
Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K and our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form&nbsp;10-Q, as such filings may be updated by subsequent annual,
quarterly and other reports that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus in their entirety. The risks described in these documents
are not the only ones we face, but those that we consider to be material. There may be other unknown or unpredictable economic, business,
competitive, regulatory or other factors that could have material adverse effects on our future results. Past financial performance may
not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future
periods. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be seriously
harmed. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. Please
also read carefully the section below entitled &ldquo;Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.&rdquo;</P>

acquirer obtains approval of the target corporation&rsquo;s disinterested stockholders. The statute specifies three thresholds:
one-fifth or more but less than one-third, one-third but less than a majority, and a majority or more, of the outstanding voting
power. Generally, once an acquirer crosses one of the above thresholds, those shares in an offer or acquisition and acquired within

stockholders restore the right. These provisions also provide that if control shares are accorded full voting rights and the

were issued in electronic book entry form. The form of warrant and the warrant agency agreement are each filed as an exhibit to the registration

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><I>Exercisability.</I>&nbsp;The October&nbsp;2018
Warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the original issuance date.
The October&nbsp;2018 Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering to us a duly executed
exercise notice and by payment in full in immediately available funds for the number of shares of common stock purchased upon such exercise.
If at the time of exercise, there is no effective registration statement registering, or no current prospectus available for, the issuance
of the shares of common stock to the holder, then the common warrant may only be exercised through a cashless exercise, in which case
the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of common stock determined according to the formula set forth in
the warrant. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a warrant. In lieu of fractional shares,
we will pay the holder an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied by the fair market value of any such fractional shares.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><I>Exercise Limitations.</I>&nbsp;Under the October&nbsp;2018
Warrants, we may not effect the exercise of any warrant, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any warrant, which,
upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause (i)&nbsp;the aggregate number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the
holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed [4.99%/9.99%] of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after
giving effect to the exercise, or (ii)&nbsp;the combined voting power of our securities beneficially owned by the holder (together with
its affiliates) to exceed [4.99%/9.99%] of the combined voting power of all of our securities then outstanding immediately after giving
effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the October&nbsp;2018 Warrants. However,
any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% upon at least 61 days&rsquo; prior
notice from the holder to us.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><I>Exercise Price.</I>&nbsp;The exercise price
per whole share of our common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the October&nbsp;2018 Warrants is $0.69 and may be adjusted in the
event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting our
common stock and also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property to our stockholders. Subject to certain
exceptions, the October&nbsp;2018 Warrants provide for adjustment of the exercise price if we or any of our subsidiaries, as applicable,
sell or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or
other disposition) any shares of our common stock or common stock equivalents, at an effective price per share that is less than the exercise
price then in effect (such lower price, the &ldquo;Base Share Price&rdquo; and such issuances collectively, a &ldquo;Dilutive Issuance&rdquo;).
In the event a Dilutive Issuance occurs, the exercise price shall be reduced to equal the Base Share Price.</P>

of the October&nbsp;2018 Warrants was reduced from $1.38&nbsp;per warrant per full share of our common stock to $0.69&nbsp;per October&nbsp;2018
