"This quarter, we continued our efforts to optimize the value of both our pharmaceutical and real estate holdings.
"We continued to invest in Rafael Pharmaceuticals to support its operational progress. Rafael Pharmaceuticals launched a pivotal Phase 3 trial of its lead compound, CPI-613, for patients with acute myeloid leukemia and is preparing to launch a Phase 3 trial for patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer. Also, during the quarter, Rafael Pharmaceuticals announced that the FDA has granted CPI-613 orphan drug designation for the treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphoma. CPI-613 has now received orphan drug designation for five difficult-to-treat cancers with significant unmet clinical needs.
"LipoMedix Pharmaceuticals continued to execute on its pre-clinical and clinical trial programs of Promitil®, its flagship prodrug. This quarter, the FDA cleared LipoMedix' IND application to launch a randomized Phase 2b clinical trial of Promitil for the treatment of patients with previously treated metastatic colorectal cancer.
"On the real estate side of our business, we are working to monetize our properties including our 20-story commercial property and associated garage in Newark, New Jersey."
