What Latigo Biotherapeutics does

Clinical-stage biotech developing a non-opioid Nav1.8 sodium-channel blocker for acute and chronic pain.

Has no product on sale and earns nothing from customers, so trials are funded by money raised from investors. Its value rests on late-stage results for one drug class, and any later income would come from selling or licensing the drug.
