12. Commitments and Contingencies 

From time to time, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings, claims and disputes that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues a liability for such matters when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and that such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount, which could differ materially. Legal fees and other costs associated with such actions are expensed as incurred. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company has accrued $5.0 million and $15.2 million, respectively, for such matters, related to the Amended License Agreement with Yale University ("Yale"), as further described below.Clinical and Preclinical Development and Licensing ArrangementsFrom time to time, the Company enters into contracts in the normal course of business with various third parties who support its clinical trials, preclinical research studies and other services related to its development activities.
