For those statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward looking statements include but are not limited to statements regarding the Company’s plans, goals, strategies, timelines, anticipated milestones, and expectations for our current or future approved drugs and drug candidates, including; plans and timelines for potential approval of ublituximab monotherapy in RMS and, if approved, plans and timelines for commercializing ublituximab in RMS; the timing of initiation of clinical trials or the results of ongoing and planned clinical trials; the potential benefits of ublituximab in RMS or any of the Company’s drug candidates in treating patients; and financial guidance regarding the period in which we will have sufficient capital resources to fund our operations.
All forward-looking statements in this press release are based on management's current expectations and beliefs and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. In addition to the risk factors identified from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements contained in this press release include the following: our ability to, if approved, establish, maintain and enhance our commercial infrastructure, to market and sell ublituximab; the potential for variation from the Company’s projections and estimates about the potential market for ublituximab due to a number of factors, including for example, limitations that regulators may impose on the required labeling for the product; our ability to reach certain regulatory milestones at all or within the timelines projected; our ability to obtain, or to obtain within the timeline projected or for the indications sought, marketing authorization for our product candidates, including ublituximab monotherapy in RMS; our ability to successfully complete analyses of our clinical study results and present data within the timeframes projected; the risk that the interim, top-line and preliminary data from our clinical trials that we announce or publish may change, or the perceived product profile may be impacted, as more patient data or additional endpoints are analyzed; the risk that regulatory authorities disagree with the conclusions we have reached or data we have publicly disclosed and we are unable to obtain approval for, or successfully commercialize, our product candidates; the risk that preclinical and clinical results for the Company’s drug candidates may not support further development of such drug candidates; actions of regulatory agencies, which may affect the initiation, timing and progress of clinical trials; the Company’s reliance on third parties to perform manufacturing, distribution and supply services, and a range of other support functions for its clinical products; the risk that the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and associated government control measures or other global issues such as the ongoing conflict in the Ukraine have an adverse impact on our clinical trials and other research and development plans or our regulatory filings and commercialization efforts; the accuracy of our estimates regarding expenses, future revenue, capital requirements and needs for additional financing; our financial performance; and the sufficiency of our existing capital resources to fund our future operating expenses for the timelines projected.
