These securities are being offered privately under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D.

The company has agreed to file a resale registration statement for these securities.

TH104, Tharimmune's lead candidate, is a transmucosal buccal film embedded with nalmefene, which adheres to the mouth's interior. This form makes TH104 suitable for treating various liver-related and pruritogenic inflammatory conditions. The molecule interacts with both µ-opioid and kappa opioid receptors, which are involved in the body's itch response.

Tharimmune is focused on developing treatments for inflammation and immunology, with TH104 aimed at treating chronic pruritus in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), a rare liver disease. Their early-stage pipeline includes novel multi-specific antibodies targeting unique epitopes in solid tumors, such as PD-1, HER2, and HER3. The company has a licensing agreement with OmniAb, Inc. for access to antibody discovery technology against these targets.
