In April 2022, the FDA placed partial clinical holds on the company's TakeAim Leukemia and TakeAim Lymphoma studies for emavusertib (CA-4948) after a patient death, restricting new patient enrollment but allowing current patients to continue at lower doses[134](index=134&type=chunk) - The company's near-term success is highly dependent on its ability to successfully resolve the FDA's partial clinical holds on the emavusertib trials[149](index=149&type=chunk) - The COVID-19 pandemic has caused and may continue to cause delays in clinical trial enrollment and overall timelines for the company's studies[143](index=143&type=chunk)[145](index=145&type=chunk) [Results of Operations](index=30&type=section&id=Results%20of%20Operations) Total revenues increased by 5% to **$2.4 million** in Q2 2022, but R&D and G&A expenses rose significantly, leading to a **47% higher net loss of $15.9 million** Comparison of Results for the Three Months Ended June 30 (in thousands of USD) | Line Item | 2022 | 2021 | % Change | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Revenues, net | $2,393 | $2,286 | 5% | | Research and development | $12,323 | $8,753 | 41% | | General and administrative | $5,089 | $4,067 | 25% | | Net loss | ($15,940) | ($10,838) | 47% | - The **41% increase in R&D expenses** for Q2 2022 was primarily due to a more than 100% increase in personnel-related costs (**$4.9 million** vs **$2.3 million**) and a 94% increase in stock-based compensation (**$0.85 million** vs **$0.44 million**), reflecting additional headcount[170](index=170&type=chunk)[172](index=172&type=chunk) - Cost of royalty revenues decreased by **64%** in Q2 2022 compared to Q2 2021, primarily due to the expiration of obligations to third-party university patent licensors for Erivedge sales in the U.S[169](index=169&type=chunk) [Liquidity and Capital Resources](index=31&type=section&id=Liquidity%20and%20Capital%20Resources) As of June 30, 2022, Curis had **$107.2 million** in cash, cash equivalents, and investments, expected to fund operations into 2024, but substantial future funding is required for development programs -
