C4X Discovery Holdings plc (AIM: C4XD), a pioneering Drug Discovery company, today announces its full year results for the year ended 31 July 2019.

Dr Clive Dix, CEO of C4X Discovery, said: '2019 was a year of building out the C4X Discovery portfolio and advancing our drug discovery programmes to create a sustainable pipeline of potential revenue-generating assets. As momentum continues to build across our key programmes, we remain confident in our business strategy with partner discussions to date confirming commercial interest for our NRF-2 programme. This follows our already out-licensed Orexin-1 programme which is progressing to clinical studies with Indivior. Now in 2020, we will continue to advance the next wave of potential out-licensing candidates and to drive forward partnering deals to create value for our shareholders. With the business in a strong position, we are excited by our future prospects as we focus on building our pioneering Drug Discovery company towards sustainability.'
