Ischemic stroke results from the obstruction to the brain blood supply, resulting in cell death and secondary brain injury triggered due to cellular stress.
TBIs occur due to physical or mechanical trauma to the brain but are also associated with secondary brain injury.
HT-TBI is the second drug in the Hoth Pipeline to target neurological disorders. HT-ALZ, another Hoth central nervous system asset, is under development to treat Alzheimer's disease.
