The company reported a net loss of $11.2 million for the quarter, compared to a loss of $9.9 million in the same period last year. This increase in loss is attributed to higher research and development expenses, which rose to $8.1 million as the company progresses with its clinical trials.
The company’s balance sheet shows a strong cash position, with cash and cash equivalents amounting to $51.8 million, up from $39.6 million at the end of 2023.

Looking ahead, Protara Therapeutics is committed to advancing its pipeline and seeks to further its clinical trials for TARA-002 and Choline Chloride.
