If all warrants are exercised, Alzinova will receive approximately SEK 26.5 million before issuing costs.

Comment from Alzinova’s CEO, Kristina Torfgård
”Now that we have taken our drug candidate, ALZ-101, into the clinical phase, we have reached an important intermediate goal in the work of developing a therapeutic vaccine directed against the neurotoxic oligomers for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Our goal of developing long-acting and effective treatments that enable patients to live an active and independent life, free from the effects of Alzheimer's disease, has now come a bit closer.
We look forward to your continued support and confidence in Alzinova's further development as weprepare and optimise the conditions for the start of a clinical phase 2 study." - Kristina Torfgård, CEO Alzinova
