Nasus Pharma (NSRX) touts NS002 Phase 2 data and cash runway
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Nasus Pharma filed a Form 6-K highlighting positive Phase 2 data for NS002, its intranasal epinephrine powder for anaphylaxis, and outlining 2026 clinical milestones. The company plans a pivotal NS002 study in the fourth quarter of 2026 with a planned readout in the first quarter of 2027, subject to regulatory alignment. Early-stage programs NS003 for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting and NS004 for metabolic disorders are expected to enter first-in-human studies in the second half of 2026, while NS005 targets cardiovascular diseases.
Financially, Nasus reported cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $4.3 million as of December 31, 2025, up from $0.3 million a year earlier, mainly due to its IPO and a subsequent $15 private placement. Research and development expenses rose to $2.4 million from $0.3 million, and general and administrative expenses increased to $2.7 million from $0.7 million, reflecting clinical progress and its transition to a public company. Net loss widened to $5.9 million from $1.5 million. The company expects its cash position to fund operations through the second quarter of 2027 and reported 9,015,383 shares outstanding as of December 31, 2025.

Insights
Positive Phase 2 data, clear 2026 milestones, and funded runway strengthen Nasus’s development story.
Nasus Pharma presents NS002 as its lead value driver, with Phase 2 results showing statistically significant improvements in early epinephrine absorption versus EpiPen and consistent performance under conditions simulating anaphylaxis. A pivotal study is planned for the fourth quarter of 2026 with a readout in the first quarter of 2027, and management explicitly links these data to a potential NDA path.
The company is also broadening its platform with preclinical programs NS003, NS004 and NS005, aiming for first-in-human studies for NS003 and NS004 in the second half of 2026. On the financial side, cash and marketable securities of $4.3 million at year-end 2025, together with a $15 private placement that closed in February 2026, are expected to fund operations through the second quarter of 2027. Higher research and development and general and administrative expenses, and a net loss of $5.9 million, are typical for a clinical-stage company investing in pipeline and public-company infrastructure.
Future disclosures tied to the NS002 pivotal initiation and the planned Phase 1 starts for NS003 and NS004 in the second half of 2026 will clarify execution against this roadmap. Investors can also reference the filed Form 20-F for detailed risk factors specific to regulatory, clinical, and financing uncertainties.

Recent Phase 2 topline results demonstrate NS002’s potential for best-in-class epinephrine delivery, with statistically significant improvements in early absorption compared to EpiPen®; pivotal study planned for Q4 2026
Company advancing pipeline assets NS003 (Ondansetron for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting) and NS004 (metabolic) toward first-in-human studies expected to start in the second half of 2026, significantly expanding the Company’s intranasal product portfolio into additional high value therapeutic areas
Company well funded through planned NS002 pivotal study and potential NDA submission
TEL AVIV, Israel, March 25, 2026 — Nasus Pharma Ltd. (NYSE: NSRX) (“Nasus Pharma” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the development of innovative intranasal products, today announced the filing of its annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2025, and provided a business update highlighting recent Phase 2 results for NS002 and upcoming clinical milestones.
“With positive Phase 2 data for NS002 and a strong cash position, we believe Nasus is well positioned to deliver on multiple clinical inflection points in 2026,” said Dan Teleman, Chief Executive Officer of Nasus Pharma. “Following the compelling topline Phase 2 results of NS002, we are advancing our intranasal epinephrine powder formulation towards a pivotal study planned to initiate in the fourth quarter of this year. The Company is well-funded to complete NS002’s pivotal study and see through a potential NDA filing. In addition, we plan to progress our earlier pipeline assets, Ondansetron for chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting, and NS004 targeting metabolic disorders, into first-in-human studies in the second half of the year and are also advancing NS005 targeting cardiovascular diseases. We believe our pipeline of innovative intranasal products, leveraging our proprietary powder platform technology, can deliver significant clinical benefits to patients and could unlock substantial value to our shareholders. We are committed to executing on this vision.”
Business Update
NS002 – Intranasal powder Epinephrine for Anaphylaxis
| ● | Completed Phase 2 single and repeat dose clinical study, with topline results demonstrating statistically significant improvements in time to therapeutic threshold (T100) and a higher proportion of participants reaching therapeutic epinephrine levels within the first minutes following administration, compared to EpiPen®. The data also demonstrated NS002’s consistent absorption across real-world conditions, including under a nasal allergic challenge designed to simulate anaphylaxis scenarios. | |
| ● | Advancing toward pivotal development, with a pivotal clinical study expected to initiate in the fourth quarter of 2026 and a planned readout in the first quarter of 2027, subject to regulatory alignment. The Company believes the positive Phase 2 results support continued development toward a potential NDA submission. |
Early Pipeline
Nasus is advancing its earlier-stage pipeline programs, which leverage the Company’s proprietary intranasal powder platform:
| ● | NS003 – Ondansetron for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting | |
| ● | NS004 – targeting metabolic disorders | |
| ● | NS005 – targeting cardiovascular diseases |
All programs are currently in preclinical development, with first-in-human Phase 1 studies expected to initiate in the second half of 2026 for NS003 and NS004, supporting the continued expansion of the Company’s intranasal product portfolio.

About Nasus Pharma
Nasus Pharma is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing a number of intranasal powder products addressing acute medical conditions in the community. NS002, Nasus Pharma’s intranasal powder Epinephrine product candidate is being developed as a needle-free alternative to Epinephrine autoinjectors for patients with anaphylaxis. Intranasal administration is most suitable for those situations in which rapid drug delivery is required and offers needle-free, easy-to-use alternatives. Nasus Pharma’s proprietary powder-based intranasal (“PBI”) technology is designed for rapid and reliable drug delivery, leveraging the nasal cavity’s rich vascular network for quick absorption. The PBI formulation uses uniform spherical powder particles for broad dispersion and potentially faster, higher absorption compared to liquid-based nasal products.
