Market and Competitive Landscape - The pharmaceutical industry is characterized by rapid technological change and substantial competition, which may impair the company's business [289]. - The company will compete against larger pharmaceutical companies and smaller firms with greater resources and experience in drug development and commercialization [291]. - The success of the product candidates will depend on acceptance by physicians, healthcare payers, and patients, particularly as the products are intended to be used in conjunction with genetic testing [288]. - Market acceptance of AD04 and future product candidates is uncertain, and failure to gain acceptance could significantly harm revenue generation [319].
