Why it matters: The company reported $116 million in cash and said it could fund operations through 2028. Higher spending or new funding needs could shorten that runway.
Worry ifAt the November 11 update, the company keeps its cash-through-2028 statement and reports no new funding need.
Less concerning ifThe company says its runway will end before the end of 2028, or announces a need for added capital.
Why it matters: Starting the trial would show progress on a third LAM-001 program. The company said it planned to start in late 2026.

Worry ifNo SAPH trial start is reported by December 31, 2026, or the company announces a delay.
