\nGossamer Bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: GOSS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of seralutinib for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023, and provided a business update.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cOur team continues to build momentum across multiple fronts following the positive results from our Phase 2 TORREY study of seralutinib in PAH patients. With recent feedback from both the FDA and EMA, we are well positioned to commence our registration program,\u201d said Faheem Hasnain, Chairman, Co-Founder and CEO of Gossamer. \u201cWe remain on track to begin our Phase 3 clinical trial of seralutinib in the coming months, moving one step closer towards our goal of bringing a potential new medicine to patients suffering from PAH.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\u201cAdditionally, we made the difficult decision to undergo an operational restructuring and headcount reduction to prioritize resources around the development of seralutinib. We believe that this restructuring was a necessary step to focus the organization on activities which maximize the potential of seralutinib. We truly appreciate the hard work and dedication of all of our employees, past and present.\u201d<\/p>\n
