Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

On May 9, 2023, pursuant to a securities purchase agreement, dated as of May 2, 2023, by and among the Issuer and Abingworth Bioventures 8 LP (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), Abingworth Bioventures 8 LP purchased 625,000 shares of Common Stock from the Issuer for a purchase price of $8.00 per share (the “Private Placement”).

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Issuer agreed to prepare and file a registration statement with the SEC on or before June 7, 2023 to register the resale of the shares of Common Stock sold in the Private Placement. In the event that the initial registration statement has not been filed or declared effective by the SEC by the dates set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Registration Default”), the Issuer has agreed to pay Abingworth Bioventures 8 LP 1.0% of the purchase amount for each 20-day period, provided that the payment shall increase by 1.0% of the purchase amount for each subsequent 20-day period following the initial 20-day period, or pro rata for any portion thereof, during which the Registration Default remains uncured, subject to certain limitations.

The foregoing description of the Securities Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of such agreement, which is attached as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.
