NRX Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
- Streeterville Capital alleges default on $11.02M convertible note; demands acceleration and repayment of at least $6,537,027.
- Company disputes the claim, says spin-off of Hope Therapeutics is not a Fundamental Transaction, and will defend vigorously.
- Phase 2b/3 trial: NRX-101 showed 33% advantage in sustained remission of suicidality vs lurasidone (not statistically significant at this sample size).
- NRX-101 showed 75% advantage in relief from akathisia (P=0.076), a side effect linked to suicide; both signals met promising zone criteria.
- Company plans 300-patient registrational trial; believes NRX-101 could be the first oral antidepressant to reduce suicide risk.
