We completed our safety trial for the intranasal ketamine program and began opening centers for our pivotal trial for Acute Suicidal Ideation and Behavior in patients with major depressive disorder. The trehalose program's pivotal study in ALS was accepted into the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial at Harvard and we began our first in vivo studies of SLS-004 and SLS-007, our gene therapy Parkinson's programs. Seelos received additional patents around the world, orphan drug designations in the US and Europe for various programs plus a Rare Pediatric Disease Designation for SLS-005," remarked Raj Mehra Ph.D., Chairman and CEO of Seelos. "We look forward to 2021 as we embark on clinical studies in two unmet needs, namely imminent suicidality and ALS. We have expanded the Seelos team by adding several experienced industry veterans as full-time Seelos employees to efficiently execute clinical and preclinical programs."
