−Removed: Actual results could differ from those estimates.
−Removed: The significant estimates are incurred costs of clinical
−Removed: studies, stock-based compensation expense, valuation of derivative financial liabilities, and income taxes and valuation of deferred
−Removed: and Development
−Removed: Research and development costs primarily consist of research contracts
−Removed: for the advancement of product development, salaries and benefits, stock-based compensation, and consultants.
−Removed: The Company expenses all
−Removed: research and development costs in the period incurred.
−Removed: Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date
−Removed: fair value of the award.
−Removed: That cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange
−Removed: for the award - the requisite service period.
−Removed: The grant-date fair value of employee share options is estimated using the Black-Scholes
−Removed: option pricing model adjusted for the unique characteristics of those instruments.
−Removed: Compensation expense for warrants granted to
−Removed: non-employees is determined by the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued,
−Removed: whichever is more reliably measured, and is recognized over the service period.
−Removed: The expense is subsequently adjusted to fair value
−Removed: at the end of each reporting period until such warrants vest, and the fair value of such instruments, as adjusted, is expensed
−Removed: over the related vesting period.
−Removed: Adjustments to fair value at each reporting date may result in income or expense, depending upon
−Removed: the estimate of fair value and the amount of expense recorded prior to the adjustment.
−Removed: The Company reviews its agreements and
−Removed: the future performance obligation with respect to the unvested warrants for its vendors or consultants.
−Removed: When appropriate, the
−Removed: Company will expense the unvested warrants at the time when management deems the service obligation for future services has ceased.
−Removed: Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method.
−Removed: Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized
−Removed: for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
−Removed: liabilities and their respective tax bases.
−Removed: Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected
−Removed: to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
−Removed: on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rate is recognized in income or expense in the period that the change
−Removed: is effective.
−Removed: Tax benefits are recognized when it is probable that the deduction will be sustained.
−Removed: A valuation allowance is established
−Removed: when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will either expire before the Company is able to
−Removed: realize the benefit, or that future deductibility is uncertain.
−Removed: As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and June 30, 2019, the Company
−Removed: recorded a valuation allowance to the full extent of our net deferred tax assets since the likelihood of realization of the benefit
−Removed: does not meet the more likely than not threshold.

−Removed: Company lists material recent accounting pronouncements in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements.
