ReAlta Life Sciences has appointed new CEO and COO to focus on advancing pegtarazimod, a first-to-market therapy for hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in newborns, now in Phase 2 trials. The leadership emphasizes operational efficiency for clinical trials that require rapid patient enrolment within hours after birth.
