The experimental COVID-19 antiviral drug is a highly promising pipeline candidate, having been found to be almost 65 times more effective than Gilead Sciences’ remdesivir at inhibiting the COVID-19 virus. Investors now wait for the financial terms of the licensing deal, as well as follow-up studies to be conducted by TNXP in its push towards regulatory approval for TNX-3500.
Development of TNX-1800

Investing in Future Gains
Research and Development costs were up to USD$12.1 million in Q4 2020 from the USD$5.7 million reported in the same time period of the previous year. The increased costs are a result of the commencement in 2020 of the development of TNXP’s potential COVID-19 vaccine candidate, TNX-1800. The higher R&D costs can also be attributed to the two Phase 3 studies for TNX-102 SL that were underway in 2020.
