Vince Angotti: Nafamostat Study Progressing Well
Cash and investments balance was $21.1M as of March 31. "In early March, we announced the attainment of 50% enrollment in the NEPHRO CRRT study evaluating nafamostat. With continued steady enrollment, we have well exceeded this level, and continue to expect study completion later this year," stated Vince Angotti, CEO. "Our clinical study sites and principal investigators remain focused on enrollment and delivering a high quality study as they are eager for a potential alternative anticoagulant for Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy. The investor and analyst event held in March also highlighted the need for an alternative, given the disadvantages of the currently used products, heparin and citrate. If approved, we continue to believe nafamostat will fill an unmet need in the market as a regional anticoagulant for CRRT".
