RJX is an Intravenous (IV) formulation of known physiologically compatible compounds that is being developed for more effective supportive therapy of patients with sepsis, including COVID-19 patients with viral sepsis and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The RJX formulation is a solution of buffered acid products, electrolyte components, and vitamins, including ascorbic acid, cyanocobalamin, thiamine hydrochloride, riboflavin 5' phosphate, niacinamide, pyridoxine hydrochloride, and calcium d-pantothenate, and magnesium sulfate heptahydrate, a mineral with a negative oxidation-reduction potential. The components of RJX exhibited promising activity in clinical studies involving ARDS patients and/or non-clinical studies in animal models of ARDS. The published data from these clinical and non-clinical studies provided the medical-scientific rationale for our clinical development strategy for RJX and a clinical study in COVID-19 patients.
