"Namodenoson’s highly encouraging Phase II data showing it substantially resolved all cases of NASH, in addition to the drug’s advancement towards a global pivotal Phase III study in liver cancer underscores its value for potential partnership agreements. Likewise, we expect interim data for Piclidenoson on Phase III studies in psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis by the end of this year. With our advanced stage clinical pipeline, this is very opportune timing for us to engage in discussions with potential pharma partners seeking safe and effective drugs for autoimmune and liver diseases," stated Can-Fite CEO Dr. Pnina Fishman.

Can-Fite currently has out-licensing agreements for its Namodenoson and Piclidenoson drug candidates in several territories and has received approximately $18 million in upfront and milestone payments to date.
