Recent notable developments include the dosing of the first patients in a Phase 2 trial of DM199 for Fetal Growth Restriction in June 2026, and receiving FDA feedback on the DM199 Preeclampsia Nonclinical Program in the same month. In May 2026, the company announced reaching a 75% enrollment milestone in its ReMEDy2 Phase 2/3 Acute Ischemic Stroke Trial.
