Mr. Robb Knie, CEO of Hoth Therapeutics, Inc. stated, "Hoth continues its plans for an upcoming trial in Australia later this year for its proprietary BioLexa Platform for those patients suffering with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis.  Our preclinical study of WEG-232 for dermatological treatment relating to the side effects of cancer medication is in its final stages and we look forward to sharing those results later this month.  The VNLG-152 preclinical study at Weill Cornell Medicine to examine the efficacy of RAMBA in blocking acne pathogenic gene expression and carcinogenesis in mice is well underway and continuing to proceed.  Our Gene Therapy program in conjunction with N.C. State has progressed to its next steps with no interruptions.  We at Hoth look forward to further updating our shareholders as we continue to work diligently to further the development of therapeutics within our pipeline."

While the Company does not anticipate that the virus poses any interruptions to its business or its clinical trial timeline, it did offer a reminder to those patients that are afflicted with Atopic Dermatitis.  The National Eczema Society stated that there is currently no "eczema-friendly" hand sanitizer on the market, as those available products all contain alcohol.  Overuse of the product can cause increased dryness to patients' skin, therefore causing cracks and increasing potential points of entry for viruses.  Hoth stands with the National Eczema Society and would like to provide this reminder in an effort to increase awareness and improve public safety. For more information please visit: http://www.eczema.org/coronavirus.
