Key risks include a limited operating history, significant net losses, dependence on lead product candidate tovorafenib (DAY101), need for substantial additional capital, and uncertainties in clinical trials and regulatory approvals[180] - Other risks involve manufacturing complexities, ability to retain key personnel, intellectual property protection, and competition in the biopharmaceutical industry[180][181] Risks Related to Our Financial Position and Need for Additional Capital Addresses risks associated with limited operating history, ongoing losses, and the need for future financing - The company has a limited operating history, no approved products, and has incurred significant net losses, making it difficult for investors to evaluate its viability and increasing the risk of never achieving profitability[182][186] - Substantial additional capital will be required to fund operations and achieve goals, with existing cash projected to last into 2025, but there's no assurance of obtaining adequate financing on acceptable terms[198][200] - Failure to raise capital could force delays, reductions, or elimination of research, product development, or commercialization efforts, and may result in dilution for stockholders[199][202][203] Risks Related to Development and Commercialization of Our Product Candidates Covers risks in clinical trials, regulatory approvals, market competition, and product safety - Clinical trials are expensive, time-consuming, and have uncertain outcomes; earlier results may not predict later success, and product candidates may fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy, delaying or preventing regulatory approval[205][206][212] - The company relies on investigator-initiated Phase 1 trial data for tovorafenib (DAY101) but does not control its operations or reporting, and additional data may not show similar results[208][209] - Adverse side effects or safety risks could delay or preclude approval, limit commercial potential, or lead to significant negative consequences post-approval, including withdrawal from the market[233][235][239] - The market opportunities for product candidates may be smaller than estimated, limited to specific patient subsets, and subject to intense competition from existing and developing therapies, including other BRAF and MEK inhibitors[222][225][244] Risks related to Government Regulation Details regulatory approval uncertainties, post-marketing requirements, and compliance with healthcare laws - The development and commercialization of pharmaceutical products are subject to extensive regulation, and there is no guarantee of timely regulatory approvals for tovorafenib (DAY101), pimasertib, or future product candidates[256][257] - Accelerated approval pathways may not lead to faster development or approval and do not increase the likelihood of marketing approval, with post-marketing confirmatory trials required and potential for withdrawal of approval[263][264] - Breakthrough Therapy designation for tovorafenib (DAY101) does not guarantee faster development or approval, nor does it change approval standards, and the designation can be withdrawn[266][267] - Failure to comply with ongoing post-marketing requirements, including promotion restrictions and cGMPs, could lead to substantial penalties, withdrawal of products, or limitations on marketing[283][284][288][289] - The company's relationships with healthcare providers and payors are subject to anti-kickback, fraud and abuse, transparency, and health privacy laws, with potential for significant penalties for non-compliance[293][295] - Recently enacted and future legislation, such as the Inflation Reduction Act, may increase the difficulty and cost of obtaining marketing approval and commercializing products, and could decrease prices[296][301][303] Risks Related to Our Reliance on Third Parties Examines risks from dependence on third-party CROs, CMOs, and suppliers for development and manufacturing - The company relies heavily on third parties (CROs, CMOs, investigators) to conduct clinical trials and manufacturing, which introduces risks of delays, increased costs, non-compliance, or substandard performance[323][324][327] - Manufacturing product candidates is complex and relies on third-party manufacturers, primarily in China, exposing the company to supply disruptions, increased costs, and geopolitical risks[328] - Reliance on a limited number of sole suppliers for raw materials creates risks of capacity constraints, price increases, and supply chain disruptions due to various factors including natural disasters or economic conditions[337] - Future collaborations for product development and commercialization may not be successful, leading to limited control over resources, potential competition from collaborators, and disputes over intellectual property[338][339] Risks Related to Employee Matters and Our Operations Discusses risks related to personnel retention, operational growth, misconduct, and cybersecurity - Future success depends on retaining executive officers and key employees and attracting qualified personnel in a highly competitive industry, particularly in the San Francisco Bay Area[342][344] - The company expects significant growth in employees and operations, which may be difficult to manage effectively due to limited financial resources and management experience in scaling a commercial enterprise[345][347] - The company is exposed to risks of misconduct by employees, clinical trial investigators, and third-party partners, which could lead to regulatory sanctions, reputational harm, and significant penalties[348][349] - Security breaches, cyber-attacks, or failures in information technology systems could disrupt development programs, compromise sensitive information, and expose the company to liability and reputational damage[350][351][355] - Compliance with stringent and changing privacy, data protection, and data security laws (e.g., GDPR, CCPA) is costly and complex, with potential for government enforcement actions, fines, and litigation[360][362][364] - Natural disasters, power outages, or other unforeseen events could disrupt operations, damage critical infrastructure, and adversely affect the business, with existing disaster recovery plans potentially inadequate[371] Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property Highlights challenges in obtaining and maintaining patent protection and avoiding infringement claims - The company's commercial success depends on obtaining and maintaining patent protection, but the patent position in biopharmaceuticals is highly uncertain, with no assurance that patent applications will issue or provide sufficient competitive advantage[377][379][381] - Operating without infringing third-party patents is crucial, but claims of infringement may arise, leading to costly litigation, development delays, or the need for expensive licensing agreements[392][394][395] - Reliance on licensed intellectual property from third parties (e.g., Viracta, Takeda, Merck KGaA) means that termination or narrow interpretation of these agreements could materially adversely affect the ability to develop and commercialize product candidates[398][400][404] - Patent terms may be inadequate to protect competitive position, and failure to obtain patent term extensions could allow competitors to launch products earlier[427][428] - Protecting intellectual property rights globally is challenging and expensive, with varying levels of protection in different countries, potentially allowing competitors to use technologies where patent protection is weak[429][430] Risks Related to Our Common Stock Addresses stock price volatility, lack of dividends, potential dilution, and anti-takeover provisions - An active and liquid trading market for common stock may not be sustained, potentially making it difficult for investors to resell shares at or above the purchase price[445] - Quarterly operating results are expected to fluctuate significantly, and falling below investor or analyst expectations could cause the stock price to decline substantially[447] - The market price of common stock is highly volatile due to various factors, including clinical trial results, regulatory developments, competition, and general economic conditions, which could lead to substantial losses for investors[448][451][453] - The company does not intend to pay dividends, so investment return depends solely on stock price appreciation[454] - Sales of a substantial number of shares by existing stockholders or future capital raises could dilute ownership interests and cause the stock price to decline[455][458] - Anti-takeover provisions in charter documents and Delaware law could prevent or delay an acquisition, even if beneficial to stockholders, and may hinder attempts to replace management[465][466] General Risk Factors Covers increased costs of public company operations, internal control effectiveness, and economic conditions - Operating as a public company incurs increased costs and requires substantial management time for compliance with regulations like Sarbanes-Oxley, especially after losing emerging growth company status[474] - Failure to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting could impair the ability to produce accurate financial statements, leading to loss of investor confidence and potential sanctions[475][476] - Unfavorable global economic conditions, including inflation, rising interest rates, and instability in the global banking system, could adversely affect the business, financial condition, and stock price[480] Item 2.
