 We expect our operating expenses for the foreseeable future to continue to be R&D expenses and general and administrative expenses consistent with the nature of such expenses described above under “Financial Overview.” Our future expenses could also include significant costs related to commercialization of our product candidates, if approved, depending on the type, nature and terms of commercial collaborations we establish, and in particular, if we determine to engage in commercialization activities directly as opposed to through a third-party collaborator. Our future capital requirements are difficult to predict because they will depend on many factors that are highly variable and difficult to predict, including, but not limited to, those discussed under “Risks Related to Our Financial Position and Capital Needs” in ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS of this report. We cannot accurately determine the 127

duration and completion costs of our development programs, or if, when and to what extent we will generate revenue from any products we develop. Capital Resources Historically, the cash used to fund our operations has come from a variety of sources and predominantly from sales of shares of our common stock. We have also received a significant amount of cash through non-dilutive grants, strategic collaborations and royalty monetization transactions. We have a sales agreement with Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, or Stifel, to sell shares of our common stock from time to time through an ATM offering under which Stifel acts as our agent. During 2024, we sold 109,655 shares of our common stock under the sales agreement for net proceeds of approximately $0.5 million. Shares of our common stock sold under the sales agreement will be offered and sold under our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-278380), declared effective by the SEC on May 10, 2024, the base prospectus included therein and the prospectus supplement thereto dated May 10, 2024 relating to the offering of up to $18.1 million of shares of our common stock, and any subsequent prospectus supplement related to the offering of shares of our common stock under the sales agreement. We have a purchase agreement with Lincoln Park under which, subject to the conditions thereof, we have the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Lincoln Park, and Lincoln Park is obligated to purchase, up to $15.0 million in shares of our common stock. Such sales of our common stock to Lincoln Park, if any, will be subject to certain limitations, and may occur from time to time
