What LB Pharmaceuticals does

Clinical-stage biotech developing LB-102, an oral antipsychotic drug candidate for schizophrenia.

Has no product revenue and pays for trials by selling shares, so each trial result affects how much capital it can raise. LB-102 is a modified form of amisulpride, an antipsychotic sold in Europe but never approved in the US, which gives it a safety record from abroad.
