Risk Factors
So far, the Group has not generated any revenue from product sales, and it is expected that commercial product sales will not be generated in the short term. The group also indicated that losses are expected to increase in 2021 due to continued clinical trial promotion, other clinical trials, and confirmation of potential losses related to the increase in the fair value of preferred shares before the global sale ends. Also, clinical trials are expensive, and it can take years to complete, and the results themselves are full of uncertainty.
