In 2026, the U.S. government also launched TrumpRx, a federal initiative to enable patients to gain access to certain prescription drugs at reduced costs based on pricing available in other countries (i.e., most-favored-nation pricing). In addition, the Trump administration is pursuing a two-fold strategy to reduce drug costs in the United States. While it is unclear whether and how the Trump proposals will be implemented, the Trump policies are likely to have a negative impact on the pharmaceutical industry and on our ability to receive adequate revenues for any product candidate that we commercialize. On the one hand, President Trump has threatened to impose significant tariffs on pharmaceutical manufacturers that do not adopt pricing policies such as most favored nation pricing, which would tie the price for drugs in the United States to the lowest price in a group of other countries.
