General Overview

We incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 2, 2011, and are presently based in the County of San Diego, California. We are a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of therapeutics that target lipid-signaling modulation pathways, including the endocannabinoid system (the "ECS"), a network of receptors and neurotransmitters that form a biochemical communication system throughout the body.

Our product candidate pipeline broadly leverages leading scientific methodologies and balances risk across mechanisms of action and stages of development. Our programs represent a comprehensive approach in utilizing the power and promise of lipid signaling to develop pharmaceuticals for patients with unmet healthcare needs. We are currently developing a novel, benzimidazole dual cannabinoid (CB) agonist that targets both the CB1 and CB2 receptors. This synthetic small molecule program is a G protein-coupled receptor ("GPCR") designated ART27.13 and was initially developed by AstraZeneca plc. We are developing ART27.13 as a potential treatment for cancer-related anorexia and it is currently in a Phase 1b/2a trial, titled the Cancer Appetite Recovery Study ("CAReS"). In an interim analysis of the on-going Phase 2a CAReS trial, patients with cancer anorexia receiving ART27.13 demonstrated a mean weight gain of over 6% compared to a 5% loss in the placebo group, while maintaining a safety profile similar to the Phase 1b despite doses up to twice the previous maximum. Currently there is no FDA approved treatment for cancer anorexia cachexia syndrome.

Our second program, ART26.12 is a small molecule and the lead product candidate from our chemical library of inhibitors of fatty acid binding proteins, notably Fatty Acid Binding Protein 5 ("FABP5"). We received U.S. Food & Drug Administration (the "FDA") clearance for our Investigational New Drug ("IND") application for ART26.12 in July 2024 and have completed enrolment to a Phase 1 clinical trial in healthy subjects to support the development towards an agent intended to treat chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy ("CIPN"). In addition, ART26.12 may have broad applications as a cancer therapeutic, as a treatment for dermatologic conditions, such as psoriasis, as a treatment for pain and inflammation, and potential use in anxiety-related disorders, including post-traumatic stress disorder. In June 2025, we announced favorable results from our first-in-human study evaluating ART26.12. The Phase 1 Single Ascending Dose (SAD) study was designed to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of ART26.12 in healthy volunteers and enrolled 49 subjects. All adverse events (AEs) were mild, transient, and self-resolving. No drug-related AEs were observed in the blinded dataset, and no tolerability issues or safety signals were detected across multiple assessments (vital signs, ECGs, clinical laboratory tests, physical examinations, and visual analogue mood scales). In addition, full dose-exposure profiles were successfully explored. Plasma analysis confirmed dose-dependent, linear absorption across the evaluated range. A wide safety margin was observed between estimated therapeutic plasma concentrations and the highest exposure levels achieved, supporting potential titration for maximum efficacy in future studies. In addition to ART26.12 in CIPN, our extensive library of small molecule inhibitors of Fatty Acid Binding Proteins ("FABPs") has shown therapeutic potential for the treatment of certain cancers, neuropathic and nociceptive pain, psoriasis, and anxiety disorders.

ART12.11 is our wholly owned, proprietary cocrystal composition of cannabidiol (CBD) and tetramethylpyrazine (TMP). Isolated as a single crystalline form, ART12.11 has exhibited better pharmacokinetics and improved efficacy compared to other forms of CBD in nonclinical studies. Greatly enhanced pharmaceutical properties, including physicochemical, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic advantages have been observed with ART12.11. We believe a more consistent and improved bioavailability profile may ultimately lead to increased safety and efficacy in humans, thus making ART12.11 a preferred CBD pharmaceutical composition. The U.S. issued composition of matter patent for ART12.11 is enforceable until December 10, 2038 and has now been granted or validated in 21 additional countries.

We obtained two of our patent protected product candidates through our in-licensing activities. Our first in-licensed program, ART27.13, is being developed for cancer-related anorexia. ART27.13 is a peripherally-selective high-potency dual CB1 and CB2 full-receptor agonist. We exercised our option to exclusively license this product candidate through the NEOMED Institute ("NEOMED"), a Canadian not-for-profit corporation, renamed adMare Bioinnovations ("adMare") in June 2019, which had obtained rights to ART27.13 from AstraZeneca plc. In Phase 1, single dose studies in healthy volunteers and a multiple ascending dose study in individuals with chronic low back pain conducted by AstraZeneca plc, ART27.13 exhibited an attractive pharmacokinetic and absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion profile and was well tolerated within the target exposure range. It also exhibited dose-dependent and potentially clinically meaningful increases in body weight. Importantly, the changes in body weight were not associated with fluid retention or other adverse effects and occurred at exposures without central nervous system ("CNS") side effects. Discussions with United Kingdom ("UK"), U.S. and Canadian regulators indicate there is a potential pathway for development of ART27.13 for the treatment of cancer-related anorexia, which affects approximately 60% of advanced stage cancer patients.

58

We commenced enrollment and dosed the first patient in CAReS, our Phase 1b/2a clinical study of cancer-related anorexia with ART27.13 in April 2021 and completed enrolling patients in the Phase 1b during the first quarter of 2023. Data from the Phase 1b stage was used to determine the most effective and safe dose selected as the starting dose for the Phase 2a portion of CAReS. We received approval from the regulatory authorities in the UK, Ireland and Norway to increase the daily dose from the starting dose of 650 micrograms to 1,000 micrograms after 4 weeks and up to 1,300 micrograms initiated at eight weeks in patients for whom intra-patient dose escalation is expected to be well tolerated. We also received approval from the regulatory authorities to enroll 40 evaluable patients into the Phase 2a stage with a 3:1 randomization of ART27.13 to placebo. We initiated the Phase 2a portion of CAReS during April 2023 with 18 clinical sites across five countries.

As of December 31, 2025, 32 participants have been enrolled. On September 3, 2025, we announced interim results from the Phase 2a CAReS trial. In the interim analysis, 18 evaluable patients-primarily with lung and gastrointestinal cancers not receiving cyclic chemotherapy-were included. After 12 weeks of treatment in patients who were titrated to the top dose evaluated of 1300 micrograms (n=5), ART27.13 demonstrated compelling increases in mean body weight of 6.38% (Standard Deviation or SD 9.50) compared to patients on placebo (n=6) who lost -5.42% (SD 8.17). The maximum weight gain in the ART27.13 group reached 18.5%, versus only 0.4% in placebo. The maximum weight loss in the placebo arm was -17.4%, compared to just -3.0% in the ART27.13 group. Additional benefits were seen in lean body mass, with a +4.23% increase (SD 5.37) in the treatment group versus a -3.15% loss (SD 4.89) in placebo at one month, as well as qualitative improvements in total and weekly activity scores.

Safety results were consistent with prior findings. Among the 32 participants enrolled in the CAReS Phase 2 trial to date, seven patients (22%) experienced adverse events that may be related to ART27.13. All were mild or moderate, with the exception of a single case of severe malaise, and no drug-related serious adverse events were reported. These data are aligned with safety outcomes observed in Phase 1 of CAReS, supporting ART27.13's overall favorable tolerability and acceptable safety profile.

Our second in-licensed patented program is being advanced from our platform of small-molecule inhibitors of FABPs, notably FABP5. FABPs are attractive therapeutic targets, however, the high degree of sequence and structural similarities among family members made the creation of drugs targeting specific FABPs challenging. FABP5 is believed to specifically target and regulate one of the body's endogenous cannabinoids, anandamide ("AEA"). While searching for a FABP5 inhibitor to regulate AEA, researchers at Stony Brook University ("SBU") discovered the chemistry for creating a large library of compounds which we believe to be highly specific and potent small molecule inhibitors of FABP5 and other isoforms. We licensed the rights to world-wide intellectual property in all fields and certain know-how to these inhibitors from SBU.

Our lead FABP5 inhibitor program is designated ART26.12. Preclinical research with ART26.12 showed evidence of activity in multiple pain models including osteoarthritis, cancer bone pain, and neuropathic pain. Based upon positive preclinical evidence from five separate studies showing promising activity and a differentiated mechanism-of-action for the prevention and treatment of painful neuropathies, including diabetic neuropathy and CIPN, we prioritized CIPN as the initial indication for development of ART26.12. Treatment and/or prevention of CIPN is a significant unmet need, often resulting in anti-cancer treatment delays or discontinuations, and there are currently no approved treatments for CIPN by the regulatory authorities in the U.S., UK or EU. We submitted an IND application for ART26.12 to the FDA on June 10, 2024 and received a study may proceed notice from the FDA on July 8, 2024. First-in-human studies for ART26.12 began in Q4 of 2024 and we successfully completed dosing all 48 healthy volunteers planned for the Phase 1 Single Ascending Dose study at the end of April 2025. In addition to its potential as a synthetic endocannabinoid modulator with development targeting pain, inflammation, dermatologic conditions such as psoriasis, FABP5 is understood to play an important role in lipid signaling and is believed to be an attractive strategy for drug development in oncology. Large amounts of human biomarker and animal model data support FABP5 as an oncology target, including triple negative breast cancer, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, and castration-resistant prostate cancer. Through our sponsored research we have also subsequently identified a potential role for FABP5 inhibition to treat anxiety disorders, such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder ("PTSD"). We have been awarded a research grant in Canada to expand on our earlier research at the University of Western Ontario in this new development area.

59

In addition to our in-licensed programs, we have internal discovery research initiatives which resulted in ART12.11, a proprietary cocrystal composition of CBD and TMP. The crystal structure of CBD is known to exhibit solid polymorphism, or the ability to manifest in different forms. Polymorphism can adversely affect stability, dissolution, and bioavailability of a drug product and thus may affect its quality, safety, and efficacy. Based upon our research, we believe our CBD cocrystal exists as a single crystal form and as such is anticipated to have advantages over other solid forms of CBD that exhibit polymorphism. Emerging data demonstrates potential advantages of this single crystal structure, including improved stability, solubility, and a more consistent absorption profile. We believe these features have contributed to a more consistent and improved bioavailability and pharmacokinetic profile which may ultimately lead to improved safety and efficacy in human therapeutics, as already demonstrated in animal studies.

Presently, we have two U.S. patents, one pending U.S. patent application, six foreign patents (Australia, Brazil, China, Mexico, Japan and Taiwan) and three pending foreign patent applications (Canada, Europe, and South Korea) directed to our cocrystal composition of CBD. Composition claims are generally known in the pharmaceutical industry as the most desired type of intellectual property and should provide for long lasting market exclusivity for our synthetic CBD cocrystal drug product candidate. In addition, due to the reasons outlined above, we believe that our synthetic CBD cocrystal will continue to demonstrate a superior set of pharmaceutical properties compared to non-cocrystal CBD compositions. We plan to develop ART12.11 for multiple potential indications where CBD has shown activity of such anxiety disorders, including PTSD, depression, and other possible uses such as epilepsy and insomnia.

We are developing our product candidates in accordance with traditional regulated drug development standards and expect to make them available to patients via prescription or physician orders only after obtaining marketing authorization from a country's regulatory authority, such as the FDA. Our management team has experience developing, commercializing, and partnering ethical pharmaceutical products, including several first-in-class therapeutics. Based upon our current management's capabilities and the future talent we may attract, we plan to retain rights to internally develop and commercialize products; however, we may seek collaborations with partners in the biopharmaceutical industry when a partnering strategy serves to maximize value for our stockholders.

Components of Our Results of Operations

Revenue

To date, we have not generated any revenue and we may not generate any revenue from the sale of products or from other sources in the near future.

Our operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $11.4 million compared to $10.1 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025, was primarily the result of increased professional fees during the year related to our financing activities and increases in the service cost of stock-based compensation offset by a decrease in research and development activities compared to the prior year, due to the timing and level of the research being conducted.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis.

Since our inception, we have not generated any revenue from product sales and have incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from our operations. Our net loss was $12.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025.

In July 2023, we filed a $75,000 in aggregate value shelf registration statement on Form S-3 which became effective on July 14, 2023. The shelf registration statement is effective for three years and permits us to sell, from time to time, up to $75,000 of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, and/or units subject to a limit of one-third (1/3) of our public float within a twelve (12) month period if our public float is less than $75,000 as of relevant measurement dates under applicable securities laws.

On May 1, 2025, we issued at-market, unsecured convertible notes with gross proceeds of $900. The convertible notes bore interest at 12.0% and had a maturity of 180 days. The convertible notes were subject to voluntary and automatic provisions for conversion into our common stock, as well as conversion into warrants to purchase our common stock for a five-year period at a price of $6.24 per share, as adjusted for the subsequent reverse stock split. Certain members of our board of directors, an officer and consultants to the Company acquired $350 of the convertible notes. On October 28, 2025, we entered into a subscription agreement pursuant to which it issued and sold to certain investors, and the investors purchased (by converting all or a portion of the unconverted voluntary conversion portion of unpaid principal balance and accrued interest due to such investors upon the maturity of the convertible promissory notes issued to the investors on May 1, 2025): (i) convertible notes to the investors in an aggregate principal amount of $692; and (ii) warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase an aggregate of 438,182 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at an exercise price of $3.40 per share. The Notes have a maturity of 180 days and bear interest at 12.0%.

On June 24, 2025, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with the purchasers named therein, for the private placement of (i) 136,843 shares of our common stock at $5.82 per share, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase 93,180 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share at $5.819 per pre-funded warrant, (iii) warrants to purchase 460,046 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.82 per share, and (iv) warrants to purchase 230,023 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share. Total gross proceeds were $1,425, net proceeds were $1,079 after transaction costs of $346.

61

On July 18, 2025, we entered into an At-The-Market Offering Agreement (the "Sales Agreement") with R.F. Lafferty & Co., Inc. ("R.F. Lafferty") under which we may offer and sell up to $6.5 million of shares of our common stock from time to time through an "at the market" offering program under which R.F. Lafferty will act as sales agent. Under the Sales Agreement, we will set the parameters for the sale of shares, including the number or dollar amount of shares to be issued, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, limitations on the number or dollar amount of shares that may be sold in any one trading day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, R.F. Lafferty may sell the shares by methods deemed to be an "at the market" offering as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). We have no obligation to sell any shares under the Sales Agreement and may at any time suspend solicitation and offers under the Sales Agreement. The shares will be issued pursuant to our shelf registration statement on Form S-3, including the prospectus supplement contained therein, which was declared effective by the SEC on July 14, 2023. During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, 50,858 shares were sold under the Sales Agreement for net proceeds of $442.

On August 4, 2025, we entered into a securities purchase agreement for an at-the market PIPE (private investment in public equity) for the purchase and sale of securities at a price of $10.45 per unit, consisting of: (a) 906,687 shares of common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof); (b) three-year warrants to purchase 906,687 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $10.20 per share; and (c) three-year warrants to purchase 906,687 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $50.00 per share, for expected aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $9,475. The Company agreed that the net proceeds of the sale will be used to purchase Solana's native token, SOL. On August 19, 2025, this securities purchase agreement was terminated with mutual consent of us and investors and all proceeds received from investors were returned.

On September 4, 2025, we entered into an underwriting agreement (the "First Underwriting Agreement") with R.F. Lafferty & Co., Inc. ("Underwriter"), the sole book-running manager and underwriter, relating to an underwritten offering of (i) 640,924 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $4.40 per share, and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 40,894 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, at a price to the public of $4.399 per pre-funded warrant, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3,000, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses of $310 resulting in net proceeds of $2,690. The offering was closed on September 5, 2025. We delivered the securities to the Underwriter on the same day. Pursuant to the First Underwriting Agreement, we granted the Underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 102,272 shares of common stock at the share purchase price per share and/or pre-funded warrants at the pre-funded warrant purchase price, less the underwriting discounts to cover overallotments, if any. The Underwriter purchased an additional 57,914 shares of common stock under this option for net proceeds of $237.

On September 30, 2025, we entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Second Underwriting Agreement") with the Underwriter, the sole book-running manager and underwriter, relating to an underwritten offering of (i) 441,210 shares (the "Shares") of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a price to the public of $4.40 per share (the "Share Purchase Price"), and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 13,335 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share at a price to the public of $4.399 per pre-funded warrant, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $2,000, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and the other estimated offering expenses of $240 resulting in net proceeds of $1,760. Pursuant to the Second Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 68,181 shares of common stock at the share purchase price per share and/or pre-funded warrants at the pre-funded warrant purchase price, less the underwriting discounts to cover over-allotments, if any. This option was not exercised by the Underwriter.

To continue operations, we will be required to raise additional funds by completing additional equity or debt offerings or licensing our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in acquiring additional funding, that our projections of its future working capital needs will prove accurate, or that any additional funding would be sufficient to continue operations in future years. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

62

As of December 31, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents, and investments of $0.6 million.

Funding Requirements

To date, we have not generated any revenue and we may not generate any revenue from the sale of products or from other sources in the near future. We expect our expenses and capital requirements will increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities as we:

	·	continue our research and development activities;
	·	maintain, protect and expand our intellectual property portfolio, including patents, trade secrets and know how;
	·	implement operational, financial and management information systems;
	·	attract, hire and retain additional management, scientific and administrative personnel; and
	·	operate as a public company.

We continue to face challenges and uncertainties and, as a result, our available capital resources may be consumed more rapidly than currently expected due to: delays in execution of our product development plans; the scope and timing of our investment in our research and development activities and capabilities; changes we may make to the business that affect ongoing operating expenses; the costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights; changes we may make in our business strategy; the scope and timing of our investment in sales, marketing and distribution capabilities; our need to implement additional infrastructure and internal systems; the impact of the conflicts in Eastern Europe, the Middle East and in other countries; and other items affecting our forecasted level of expenditures and use of cash resources including potential acquisitions.

Until such time as we can generate significant revenue, if ever, we will continue to require substantial additional capital to fund operations for the foreseeable future. We intend to obtain such capital through public or private equity offerings or debt financings, credit or loan facilities or a combination of one or more of these funding sources. We may also seek additional financing opportunistically. We may be unable to raise additional funds on favorable terms or at all. Our ability to raise additional funds may be adversely impacted by potential worsening global economic conditions and the recent disruptions to, and volatility in, the credit and financial markets in the United States and, recent and any potential future financial institution failures, the conflicts in Eastern Europe, the Middle East and in other countries, and otherwise. Our failure to raise additional capital, if needed, would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to execute our business plan.

Our expected future capital requirements depend on many factors including expansion of our product portfolio and the timing and extent of spending on research and development activities and sales and marketing. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders will experience dilution. Any future debt financing into which we enter may impose upon us additional covenants that restrict our operations, including limitations on our ability to incur liens or additional debt, pay dividends, repurchase our Common Stock, make certain investments and engage in certain merger, consolidation or asset sale transactions. Any debt or additional equity financings that we complete may contain terms that are not favorable to us or our stockholders.

Working Capital		$	(3,349	)		$	785			$	(4,134	)

Our total current assets as of December 31, 2025, were $0.7 million as compared to total current assets of $2.6 million as of December 31, 2024. The decrease in current assets was primarily due to the funding of our operating activities.

Our total current liabilities as of December 31, 2025, were $4.0 million as compared to total current liabilities of $1.8 million as of December 31, 2024. The increase in current liabilities was primarily due to slower payments to the Company's vendors due to cash constraints as well as the issuance of convertible notes of $0.6 million outstanding at December 31, 2025, for which there was no comparable outstanding balance in the prior year.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

For a discussion of our contractual obligations and commitments, refer to Part II, Item 8, Note [11], "Commitments and Contingencies" to the financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for the judgments we make about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Because these estimates can vary depending on the situation, actual results may differ from these estimates. Making estimates and judgments about future events is inherently unpredictable and is subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. Should any of these estimates and assumptions change or prove to have been incorrect, it could have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position and statement of cash flows.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.

New Accounting Standard Adopted

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company adopted ASU 2023-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets ("ASU 2023-08"). The standard requires all entities holding cryptocurrency assets to measure these assets at fair value and disclose significant holdings. As the current reporting period was the first period in which the Company held cryptocurrency assets, there was no impact on any prior reporting periods as a result of the adoption of this standard.
