 equity or other financing. Furthermore, we also could be required to seek funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or otherwise that may require us to relinquish rights to some of our intellectual property or product candidates or otherwise agree to terms unfavorable to us. 

If we are unsuccessful in our efforts to raise any such additional capital, we would be required to take actions that could materially and adversely affect our business, including significant reductions in our research, development and administrative operations (including reduction of our employee base), possible surrender or other disposition of our rights to some technologies or product opportunities, delaying of our clinical trials or curtailing or ceasing operations.   

We could be delisted from Nasdaq for failure to comply with the minimum stockholders’ equity continued listing requirement or other applicable continued listing requirements and standards of Nasdaq, which would seriously harm the liquidity of our stock and our ability to raise capital. 

Our common stock is currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. In order to maintain that listing, we must maintain compliance with Nasdaq's continued listing requirements and standards. There can be no assurances that we will be able to comply with the applicable listing requirements and standards of Nasdaq.

Nasdaq requires listed issuers to comply with certain standards in order to remain listed on its exchange. These requirements include, among other things, maintaining a closing bid price for our common stock of $1.00 per share and meeting one of the following three requirements: maintaining at least $2.5 million in stockholders’ equity (the “Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement”); maintaining $35 million of market value of listed securities; or having $500,000 in net income over the prior two years or two of the prior three years. In March 2024, we received notice from the Listing Qualifications staff of Nasdaq (the “Staff”), notifying us that we no longer complied with the Minimum Stockholders' Equity Requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1).

On September 5, 2024, Nasdaq notified us that we had not regained compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement and that, as a result, unless we timely requested an appeal of this determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), Nasdaq would move to suspend trading of our common stock and to have our shares of common stock delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company timely requested a hearing before the Panel, and the hearing was held on October 22, 2024. On October 30, 2024,
