Upon full exercise of the Warrants the Company will receive proceeds of up to approximately SEK 90.6 million. Mendus intends to use proceeds from the Warrants to finance the continuation of its operations and extension of cash runway to Q3 2025, including futility analysis of the oral azacitidine (5’aza) combination trial with vididencel as a first step towards pivotal-stage trial design and primary analysis of the ilixadencel proof-of-concept trial.
