<ul>
<li>The difficulty of developing KRAS G12D has been recognized by the industry. Investors will be more cautious about any early and unverified G12D projects, demanding higher risk premiums.</li>
<li>Without data validation, the market cannot assess whether the efficacy/safety of TSN1611 are competitive. The “good safety” data of TSN222 still needs to be validated through larger clinical trials.</li>
<li>We think Tyligand’s valuation may not exceed the valuations of comparable companies such as <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/jacobio-pharmaceuticals" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:29696:1" rel="noopener">Jacobio Pharmaceuticals (1167 HK)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/genfleet-therapeutics" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:44187:1" rel="noopener">GenFleet Therapeutics (GENFL12 HK)</a>.</li>
