As well, shares of Antibe Therapeutics Inc. (TSXV:ATE) slid 16% to $0.355 as the biopharma company said enrollment of the last patient for its clinical trial to determine the efficacy of its lead drug ATB-346, involving patients with osteoarthritis of the knee, has been delayed from late calendar Q3 2019 to Q4 2019, which the Company attributed to its rigorous screening discipline and a temporary slowdown in patient recruitment due to the summer holiday period.
