Thank you, Zack. I'll begin with a quick overview of our fourth quarter and full year 2022 financials and then turn the call over to Richard for a business update. Research and development expenses in the fourth quarter 2022 totalled $4.1 million compared to $4.8 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease of $0.7 million was primarily related to a decrease in personnel cost.
R&D expenses for the full year 2022 totalled $24.5 million compared to $29.1 million for the full year 2021. The net loss for the fourth quarter 2022 was $9.8 million, including a $4.6 million non-cash loss related to Angel Pharmaceuticals compared to a net loss of $9.2 million, including a $2.6 million non-cash loss related to Angel for the same period in 2021. The net loss for the full year 2022 was $41.3 million, including a $10 million non-cash loss related to Angel compared to a net loss of $43.2 million, including a $4.8 million non-cash loss related to Angel for the full year 2021.
