Looking forward, Adial plans to continue the development of its lead product candidate, AD04, for the treatment of alcohol use disorder, with commercialization not expected until 2026 or later. The company acknowledges the need for additional funding to support its operations and development plans, as current cash reserves are projected to fund operations only into the first quarter of 2025.
