Celcuity Inc (NASDAQ: CELC) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company that commenced activities in January 2012 and is developing gedatolisib, a PI3K/mTOR inhibitor, for treatment of breast cancer under a license agreement with Pfizer. The company has generated no revenue since inception and has financed operations through private placements, registered equity offerings, unsecured convertible notes, and borrowings under loan agreements.

Competitors include major multinational pharmaceutical companies, established biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies, and academic research institutions, many of which have substantially greater financial and technical resources than Celcuity.
