SynAct Pharma AB: SynAct Pharma publishes Q2 2024 interim results

SynAct Pharma AB (publ) ("SynAct") today publishes the interim report for the second quarter 2024 and first six months.

"The second quarter of 2024 was a period of remarkable progress and strategic execution for SynAct Pharma. Building on the momentum from Q1, our dedicated team is focused on propelling resomelagon back into clinical trials within RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis) after strengthening our financial and operational foundations. We are confident resomelagon has incredible potential for early intervention in patients with severe RA, so progressing with ADVANCE is top priority."
