Nymox Delisting from NASDAQ
July 05 2023 - 5:11PM
Nymox Pharmaceutical Corporation (NASDAQ: NYMX) (the “Company”)
today received a Nasdaq Hearing Delist Decision, noting that Nymox
has not regained the required $1.00 share price within the 6-month
extension period granted by Nasdaq, and hence the Company's shares
will be suspended from trading on NASDAQ at the open of business on
July 7, 2023. Nymox shares will be moved to the OTC market. The
mechanics of trading the stock remain the same, as do the Company's
business fundamentals.
Nymox is in the process of submitting
applications for the approval to market the Company's first in
class drug NYMOZARFEX to treat the symptoms of benign prostatic
hyperplasia (BPH). BPH is one of the most common conditions
affecting middle aged and elderly men throughout the world. BPH can
be devastating to men who suffer from the condition. Current
treatments are associated with numerous intolerable side effects
including sexual problems, such as impotence and retrograde
ejaculation. Medications for BPH have been associated with prostate
cancer, depression, gynecomastia and other adverse effects. The
majority of men stop taking the available medications due to these
and other problems. Surgery is often needed for advanced BPH.
Surgery is usually effective but it is not without risks, the
discomforts of surgery, and BPH surgery has side effects such as
permanent retrograde ejaculation for many patients.
Nymozarfex was submitted to the Danish
authorities in December 2022 and the application was accepted for
review in early 2023 and is currently undergoing review. The
Company announced that another submission was expected to be
submitted for approval in another jurisdiction in the second
quarter of 2023. It is expected to be submitted in the near future
and the Company will provide the appropriate update when that
occurs.
Dr. Paul Averback, CEO of Nymox said, "This is a
key time for the Company, with more than one important marketing
application being submitted. We are grateful to our loyal
shareholders for their patience and we wish to assure our
supporters that we are doing our best to deliver important
milestones in our business development, in as reasonable a time
horizon as possible. It took a long time to get to this point but
we believe enhanced fundamental value has been developed -- and we
intend to continue to do everything in our power to deliver the
goods to the public and to our stakeholders."
About NYMOZARFEX (TM) (Fexapotide)
