The company’s value depends on proving that efzofitimod and other candidates are safe and effective.
Pulmonary sarcoidosis lacks an established FDA approval pathway, increasing approval risk even after positive data.
The company has not generated substantial product revenue and relies on equity, partnerships, and licensing.
It has no sales, marketing, or distribution infrastructure and may need third parties to commercialize products.
Loss or narrowing of patent protection could reduce exclusivity and bargaining power.
Large pharmaceutical and biotech companies are developing therapies in ILD and fibrosis.
