Research and development expenses decreased to $23.8 million from $27.2 million, primarily due to reduced spending on AMX0035 for progressive supranuclear palsy, partially offset by increased costs for avexitide clinical development. Selling, general, and administrative expenses rose to $21.9 million from $15.6 million, driven by higher legal fees and commercial strategic investments. The company held $250.8 million in cash equivalents and short-term investments at quarter-end, with a projected cash runway extending into 2028.
