Given the nanoviricide MOA and the fact that hCoV-NL63 is a CoV cousin with the same receptor target, it was appropriate to use, and the results are very useful. Determining which ligands worked on this cousin virus helped the company calibrate and confirm its computer models and narrow candidate ligands to the ones most likely to work on the SARS CoV-2 virus. This is the stuff biotechs do. This is good. And the next step is to test whether it actually does work on it.

As for whether the company can do that test, attract collaboration, get credibility, and file an IND... Yes, it has a poor track record on that. That's why it is a nanocap.

But we've got our candidate ligand, along with a full year's worth of capital. Let's see.
