Business summary
Acasti Pharma Inc. is a Canada-based late-stage biopharma company with drug candidates addressing rare and orphan diseases. The Company is targeting three underserved orphan diseases: GTX-104, an intravenous infusion targeting subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), a rare and life-threatening medical emergency, in which bleeding occurs over the surface of the brain in the subarachnoid space between the brain and skull; GTX-102, an oral mucosal spray targeting ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T), a progressive, neurodegenerative genetic disease that primarily impacts children causing severe disability; and GTX-101, a topical spray, targeting postherpetic neuralgia, a persistent and often debilitating neuropathic pain caused by nerve damage from the varicella zoster virus (shingles). The Company’s clinical assets have each been granted Orphan Drug Designation by the FDA, which provides seven years of marketing exclusivity post-launch in the United States, and additional intellectual property protection.

Key personnel
The London Stock Exchange does not disclose whether a trade is a buy or a sell so this data is estimated based on the trade price received and the LSE-quoted mid-price at the point the trade is placed. It should only be considered an indication and not a recommendation.
Trades priced above the mid-price at the time the trade is placed are labelled as a buy; those priced below the mid-price are sells; and those priced close to the mid-price or declared late are labelled 'N/A'.
