, we discontinued enrollment in the Phase 1b combination arm of the PYNNACLE trial evaluating rezatapopt in combination with Merck and Co.’s anti-PD-1 therapy KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab) in patients with advanced solid tumors harboring a TP53 Y220C mutation. Additionally, we announced that we are collaborating with the MDACC and MSK to support an investigator-initiated Phase 1b study, which is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of rezatapopt monotherapy in combination with azacitidine in R/R AML and MDS patients harboring a TP53 Y220C mutation. MDACC dosed its first patient for this Phase 1b study in the first quarter of 2025. 

We expect our research and development expenses to increase substantially in absolute dollars in the future as we advance our product candidates into and through clinical trials and pursue regulatory approval of our product candidates. The process of conducting the necessary clinical research to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time-consuming. The actual probability of success for our product candidates may be affected by a variety of factors including: the safety and efficacy of our product candidates, early clinical data, investment in our clinical program, the ability of any future collaborators to successfully develop our licensed product candidates, competition, manufacturing capability, and commercial viability. We may never succeed in achieving regulatory approval for any of our product candidates. As a result of the uncertainties discussed above, we are unable to determine the duration and completion costs of our research and development projects.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include personnel costs, expenses for outside professional services and other allocated expenses. Personnel costs consist of salaries, bonuses, benefits, and stock-based compensation. Outside professional services consist of legal, accounting and audit services and other consulting fees. Allocated expenses consist of rent expense related to our office and research and development facilities. We have incurred expenses related to compliance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, and those of any national securities exchange on which our securities are traded, additional insurance expenses, investor relations activities and other administrative and professional services. We also expect to increase our general and administrative expenses as we advance our product candidates through preclinical research and development, manufacturing, clinical development, and commercialization. 

Interest Income, Net

Interest income, net primarily consists of interest income from our interest-bearing cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities and interest costs related to accretion and amortization of discounts
