The company s lead product candidate LB 102 is a methylated derivative of amisulpride designed to improve blood brain barrier penetration and enable lower once daily dosing. LB 102 is currently in late stage clinical development for schizophrenia and bipolar depression with plans to evaluate it as an adjunctive treatment for major depressive disorder.

We do not currently generate product revenue as we are focused on the research and development of LB 102. Our future revenue will depend on obtaining regulatory approval for LB 102 and subsequent commercial sales of the drug in the United States and other markets. If approved we expect to derive revenue from the sale of oral and long acting injectable formulations of LB 102 to healthcare providers and patients.
