As used herein, the term “common stock” means the Company’s common stock, $ par value per share.
The results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. Readers of this Quarterly Report are strongly encouraged to review the risk factors relating to the Company which are set forth in the 2024 Annual Report and the Company’s other filings with the SEC.
Nature of the Business
The Company is a pharmaceutical development company focused on developing and ultimately commercializing innovative therapeutics based on already approved active pharmaceuticals that have patent-protected methods of use and/or methods of delivery for patients with certain cancers and certain non-cancerous proliferation disorders. The Company has also explored and expects to continue to explore acquiring or licensing other innovative pre-clinical and clinical stage therapeutics addressing unmet needs for the treatment of cancer and other diseases based on repurposing active ingredients of already approved drugs.
The Company’s primary focus is on the development of therapies initially for basal cell carcinoma (“BCC”), prostate and lung cancers in the United States utilizing itraconazole, a drug currently approved by the U.S Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to treat fungal infections, and which has an extensive history of safe and effective use in humans. The Company has developed intellectual property and know-how related to the treatment of cancer patients using itraconazole.
On December 12, 2023, the Company entered into an Exclusive License Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Johns Hopkins University (“JHU”) pursuant to which, JHU granted to the Company the exclusive worldwide patent rights to a Granted US Patent, No. 8,980,930 entitled “New Angiogenesis Inhibitors” (the “Patent”). The Patent relates to the treatment of prostate cancer, BCC including basal cell carcinoma nevus syndrome (“BCCNS”), and lung cancer. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company paid JHU an upfront license fee of $40,000. In addition to compliance with customary terms and conditions included in the Agreement, the Company is contractually obligated to pay JHU certain additional consideration, including the following:
INHIBITOR THERAPEUTICS, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025, AND 2024 (Unaudited)
In May 2024, the Company formally requested a Type-B, pre-investigational new drug application (“pre-IND”) meeting with the FDA to obtain feedback on the overall drug development and regulatory plan to use itraconazole for the treatment of BCC tumors in BCCNS patients, for which the Company has engaged the services of external experts in the field to assist with the process. The Company’s Phase IIb clinical study (“HP2001”) uses a novel formulation of itraconazole, which is referenced in the pre-IND submission.
The Company was granted a meeting in June 2024 with the Dermatology Division of the FDA, which was subsequently cancelled (with acknowledgement from the FDA), as the Company believed it required input from the FDA’s Division of Oncology. Additionally, the FDA required further understanding of the right of use to the HP2001 study to further discuss some of the pre-IND questions. The FDA has agreed to consult the Division of Oncology as necessary, and the Company believes to have provided sufficient information around the right of use to proceed with the pre-IND.
The Company has engaged Avior Bio, Inc. (“Avior”), which is currently creating a novel formulation of itraconazole, which formulations are now complete. Upon finalization of the formulation, Avior will conduct a pharmacokinetic (“PK”) crossover study of the generic formulation and the formulation that was used within the HP2001 study in preparation for a new pre-IND and New Drug Application (“NDA”). Given all formulations consist of the same active pharmaceutical ingredients (“API”), it is expected that the Company’s new, novel formulation will have extremely similar properties to the formulation used in the HP2001 clinical study.
In addition, the Company has submitted an application to the FDA to participate in the new Rare Disease Endpoint Advancement (RDEA) pilot program - an initiative jointly led by the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) and the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER).
