The lead drug candidate is BHB 1893, a next-generation oral small molecule cardiac myosin inhibitor being developed to treat obstructive HCM ("oHCM") and non obstructive HCM ("nHCM").

The company expects to initiate LIONHEART-HCM, a global Phase 3 trial of BHB 1893 in oHCM, in the second half of 2026 and NOBLEHEART-HCM, a global Phase 3 trial in nHCM, in the first half of 2027.

**SGHT Lifts Revenue Outlook**

Shares of Sight Sciences Inc. (SGHT) gained more than 27% on Thursday after the company reported second-quarter 2026 financial results, raised its full-year 2026 revenue guidance, and lowered its adjusted operating expense outlook for the year.

Revenue for the second quarter of 2026 was $23.4 million, an increase of 20% compared to $19.6 million in the second quarter of 2025. Net loss narrowed significantly to $4.4 million in Q2 2026, a 63% improvement from $11.9 million in the prior year period. Net loss per share was $0.08, compared to $0.23 in the second quarter of 2025.

The company reported Q2 2026 revenue of $11.7 million, a 21% increase compared with the second quarter of 2025, driven by a higher average selling price (ASP) and growth in the number of revenue-generating units.

For the third quarter of 2026, Myomo expects revenue to be in the range of $11.5 million to $12.0 million, representing year-over-year growth of 14% to 19%.

Looking ahead, the company raised its full-year 2026 revenue guidance to $45 million - $47 million, up from its previous outlook of $43 million-$46 million. The updated guidance compares with full-year 2025 revenue of $40.9 million, reflecting continued growth momentum in its wearable medical robotics business.
