−Removed: In liver disease, our Orphan Drug candidate BIV201 (continuous infusion terlipressin) is being developed
−Removed: as a future treatment option for patients suffering from ascites and other life-threatening complications of advanced liver cirrhosis
−Removed: caused by NASH, hepatitis, and alcoholism.
−Removed: The initial target for BIV201 therapy is refractory ascites.
−Removed: These patients suffer from frequent
−Removed: life-threatening complications, generate more than $5 billion in annual treatment costs, and have an estimated 50% mortality rate within
−Removed: 6 to 12 months.
−Removed: The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved any drug to treat refractory ascites.
−Removed: A Phase 2a clinical trial
−Removed: of BIV201 was completed in 2019, and a multi-center, randomized 30-patient Phase 2b trial is currently underway.
−Removed: As of June 30 2022, ten

−Removed: and Non-Motor Symptom Scale.
−Removed: Topline results are expected for the NM201 study by the end of the calendar year 2022.
−Removed: Inflammation-driven insulin resistance is believed to be implicated in
−Removed: a broad range of serious diseases, including multiple myeloma and prostate cancer, and we plan to begin exploring these opportunities

−Removed: fair presentation of the Company’s financial position for the periods presented.
−Removed: Use of Estimates
−Removed: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP
−Removed: requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
−Removed: The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under
−Removed: the circumstances.
−Removed: The amounts of assets and liabilities reported in the Company’s balance sheet and the amounts of expenses
−Removed: reported for each of the periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to,
−Removed: accounting for share-based compensation and other equity instruments, accounting for derivatives and accounting for income taxes.
−Removed: Actual results could differ
−Removed: from those estimates.
−Removed: Reclassifications
−Removed: Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for consistency to

−Removed: Cash is maintained at two financial institutions, and, at times, balances may exceed federally
−Removed: insured limits.
−Removed: The Company has never experienced any losses related to these balances.
−Removed: Prepaid and other Assets
−Removed: Prepaid and other assets consist of prepayments of certain expenses and
−Removed: direct costs related to capital raise which will offset proceeds upon the close.
−Removed: Other Assets, non-current
−Removed: Other assets consist of security deposit for the office lease.
−Removed: The Company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease at inception.
−Removed: Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities,
−Removed: and operating lease liabilities, net of current portion on our balance sheets.
−Removed: ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an

−Removed: ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at
−Removed: the commencement date.
−Removed: As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, an incremental borrowing rate is used based on the
−Removed: information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.
−Removed: The Company does not include options
−Removed: to extend or terminate the lease term in its calculation unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise any such options.
−Removed: Rent expense is recognized under the operating leases on a straight-line basis.

−Removed: Fair Value of Financial Instruments
−Removed: Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling
−Removed: an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
−Removed: When determining
−Removed: the fair value for applicable assets and liabilities, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact
−Removed: and we consider assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions,
−Removed: and risk of nonperformance.
−Removed: This guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy to prioritize inputs used in measuring fair value as
−Removed: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
−Removed: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
−Removed: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions
−Removed: The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts payable,
−Removed: the carrying value of the operating lease liabilities and notes payable.
−Removed: The carrying amounts of cash and accounts payable approximate
−Removed: their fair value, due to the short-term nature of these items.
−Removed: The carrying amounts of notes payable and operating lease liabilities approximate
−Removed: their fair values since they bear interest at rates which approximate market rates for similar debt instruments.
−Removed: Research and Development
−Removed: Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs associated
−Removed: with the preclinical and/ or clinical trials of drug candidates, compensation and other expenses for research and development, personnel,
−Removed: supplies and development materials, costs for consultants and related contract research and facility costs.
−Removed: Expenditures relating to research
−Removed: and development are expensed as incurred.
−Removed: In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 the Company recorded the assets acquired totaling approximately
−Removed: $130.6 million from NeurMedix, a controlled affiliate of Acuitas, our majority shareholder, that were under development as research and
−Removed: development expenses in the accompanying Statements of Operations.
−Removed: See Note 1 - Background Information.
−Removed: The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred
−Removed: income taxes.
−Removed: Deferred income taxes are measured by applying enacted statutory rates to net operating loss carryforwards and to the differences
−Removed: between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities.
−Removed: Deferred tax assets are reduced, if necessary, by a valuation
−Removed: allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
−Removed: The Company recognizes uncertainty in income taxes in the financial statements
−Removed: using a recognition threshold and measurement attribute of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
−Removed: The Company applies
−Removed: the “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold to all tax positions, commencing at the adoption date of the applicable accounting
−Removed: guidance, which resulted in no unrecognized tax benefits as of such date.
−Removed: Additionally, there have been no unrecognized tax benefits subsequent
−Removed: The Company has opted to classify interest and penalties that would accrue, if any, according to the provisions of relevant
−Removed: tax law as general and administrative expenses, in the Statements of Operations.
−Removed: For the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, there was

−Removed: Diluted net loss per common
−Removed: share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
−Removed: outstanding and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from
−Removed: common shares issuable through stock options, warrants, and convertible debentures.
−Removed: For the year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, such amounts
−Removed: were excluded from the diluted loss since their effect was considered anti-dilutive due to the net loss for the period.

+Added: The Company’s financial statements have been prepared assuming the
+Added: Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal

+Added: As of June 30, 2023 the Company had working capital of approximately $ 19.5 million, cash and cash equivalents and
+Added: US treasury bills totaling of approximately $ 33.9 million, stockholders’ equity of approximately $ 15.3 million, and an accumulated
+Added: deficit of approximately $ 301 million.
+Added: The Company is in the pre-revenue stage and no revenues are expected in the foreseeable future.
+Added: The Company’s future operations are dependent on the success of the Company’s ongoing development and commercialization efforts,
+Added: as well as its ability to secure additional financing as needed.
+Added: Although our cash balance may possibly sustain operations over the next
+Added: 12 months from the balance sheet date if measures are taken to delay planned expenditures in our research protocols and slow the progress
+Added: in the Company’s development of next phase clinical programs, the Company’s current planned operations to meet certain goals
+Added: and objectives, project cash flows to be depleted within that period of time.
+Added: future viability of the Company is largely dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital to finance its operations.
+Added: expects that future sources of funding may include sales of equity, obtaining loans, or other strategic transactions.
+Added: The Impact of COVID-19 pandemic created a widespread
+Added: labor shortage, including a shortage of medical professionals, and has impacted and may continue to impact the potential patient participation
+Added: in our studies, which may adversely impact our ability to continue or complete our clinical trials in the planned timeline.
+Added: management continues to pursue the Companys strategic plans, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining

+Added: of Presentation
+Added: Companys financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
+Added: (GAAP) and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Companys financial position for the
+Added: periods presented.
+Added: preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts
+Added: reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
+Added: The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various
+Added: assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
+Added: The amounts of assets and liabilities reported in the Companys
+Added: balance sheet and the amounts of expenses reported for each of the periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions, which
+Added: are used for, but not limited to, accounting for clinical accruals, share-based compensation, accounting for derivatives, assumptions used in leases and recoverability of intangible assets, the inputs used in the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets in connection with impairment testing and accounting for income taxes.
+Added: Actual results could differ from those estimates.
+Added: and cash equivalents
+Added: Cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash deposits
+Added: and money market funds held at a bank and funds held in a brokerage account which included a U.S.
+Added: treasury money market fund and U.S.

+Added: Concentration of Credit Risk in the Financial
+Added: Service Industry
+Added: As of June 30, 2023, the Company had cash deposited
+Added: in certain financial institutions in excess of federally insured levels.
+Added: The Company regularly monitors the financial stability of these
+Added: financial institutions and believes that it is not exposed to any significant credit risk in cash and cash equivalents.
+Added: However, in March
+Added: and April 2023, certain U.S.
+Added: government banking regulators took steps to intervene in the operations of certain financial institutions
+Added: due to liquidity concerns, which caused general heightened uncertainties in financial markets.
+Added: While these events have not had a material
+Added: direct impact on the Company’s operations, if further liquidity and financial stability concerns arise with respect to banks and
+Added: financial institutions, either nationally or in specific regions, the Company’s ability to access cash or enter into new financing
+Added: arrangements may be threatened, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.
+Added: value measurement of assets and liabilities
+Added: determine the fair values of our financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use
+Added: of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
+Added: Fair value is defined as the price that would
+Added: be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement
+Added: The fair value assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal or most advantageous
+Added: market for the asset or liability and establishes that the fair value of an asset or liability shall be determined based on the assumptions
+Added: that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
+Added: The classification of a financial asset or liability within the
+Added: hierarchy is based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
+Added: The fair value hierarchy prioritizes
+Added: the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
+Added: 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
+Added: 2 - Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability,
+Added: either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
+Added: 3 - Inputs are unobservable inputs based on our assumptions.
+Added: The Company’s financial instruments include
+Added: cash, accounts payable, the carrying value of the operating lease liabilities and notes payable.
+Added: The carrying amounts of cash and accounts
+Added: payable approximate their fair value, due to the short-term nature of these items.
