3/3/20245 min read
Spotlighting five small-cap companies for the upcoming week, our focus lies on forward-looking catalysts while dissecting key entry points to evade chasing potential bottom bouncers.
Cingulate Inc. (NASDAQ: CING) - Cingulate Inc.'s stock closed last week at $1.34, a decrease of under 1%. The company recently completed a public offering, issuing a total of 3,750,000 shares of common stock, Series A warrants, and Series B warrants at a price of $2.00 per share. In December, they received FDA guidance on advancing their investigational asset CTx-2103 for anxiety treatment, with plans to file an IND application in the first half of 2024. CEO Shane J. Schaffer expressed optimism about the potential for approval under the 505(b)(2) pathway, which could streamline the process. With increased trading volume last week, we're closely monitoring the $1.51 resistance level while awaiting further updates from the company.

Lipella Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: LIPO) - Lipella Pharmaceuticals Inc.'s stock closed last week's trading session up nearly 1% at $1.05. In December, the company marked its first anniversary as a publicly traded entity. Headquartered in Pittsburgh, PA, Lipella has achieved significant progress over the past year, reaching key milestones and advancing its pipeline with three clinical indications and two orphan drug designations. Notably, the company successfully concluded a Type C meeting with the FDA regarding its leading drug candidate, LP-10, for the treatment of hemorrhagic cystitis (HC). CEO Jonathan Kaufman expressed satisfaction with the meeting's outcome, emphasizing the FDA's clear guidance for the company's Phase-2b trial for LP-10. Additionally, Lipella's LP-310 has received orphan drug designation for the treatment of oral graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) with tacrolimus. The company plans to submit a Phase 2a IND for this indication in Q1 2024. We'll be monitoring for company updates and watching for a potential resistance break at $1.25.

Abecassis, a Board member of PharmaCyte and Professor of Surgery and Microbiology, as well as the Dean of the College of Medicine – Tucson at the University of Arizona, expressed, "We believe that discussions with the Food and Drug Administration regarding Cell-in-a-Box should provide a path forward as we continue to explore other promising local delivery technologies that may offer similar benefits for patients grappling with this challenging and life-threatening clinical issue."
