“Although the top-line results of our Phase 3 PRESECO trial were not what we had hoped for, I am incredibly proud of all that our team accomplished this quarter which continues to demonstrate Appili’s ability to rapidly execute and achieve key development milestones,” said Armand Balboni, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Appili Therapeutics. “I am excited to deploy our expanded drug development infrastructure to tackle the many other infectious disease threats in front of us and advance our broader anti-infective pipeline including our novel, clinical-stage antifungal ATI-2307 slated to enter Phase 2 next year, and our first-in-class biodefense vaccine candidate ATI-1701.”

Second quarter and recent operational highlights include:

Kimberly Stephens, CPA, CA, who has been the Company’s Chief Financial Officer since 2016, has chosen to leave Appili for personal reasons effective November 16, 2021. Kenneth G. Howling, who has over 25 years of experience in senior financial positions across several healthcare and pharmaceutical companies, will be joining Appili Therapeutics as Acting Chief Financial Officer this fall.

“On behalf of our entire team, I would like to thank Kimberly for her commitment and contribution to Appili Therapeutics,” continued Armand Balboni, CEO of Appili Therapeutics. “Since joining Appili in 2016, Kimberly has been an integral part of our executive team leading Appili through many of our biggest milestones, including taking the company public and up-listing to the Toronto Stock Exchange. We wish her well in her future endeavors.”
