Among our three drug candidates, THN201 has just entered Phase Ib to treat neurocognitive disorders in Alzheimer's disease, THN101 will be entering Phase II in patients with neuropathic pain in the first half of 2019, and THN102, which targets two indications, began its Phase II trial for patients suffering from excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) associated with Parkinson's disease.
