Engensis is one of Helixmith's core pipelines. Currently, the Phase 3-2 clinical trial for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is underway. In July, the independent data monitoring committee (IDMC) of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will decide whether to 'continue the trial,' 'modify the trial design,' or 'terminate the trial,' and will recommend this to the trial sponsor. CEO Kim mentioned that unless a recommendation to terminate the trial is made, the success probability of the Phase 3-2 trial can be considered high.
