BOTHELL, WA, October 15, 2025 — PharmaIN Corporation, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, today announced that the company will present single-ascending dose results from its ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial of PHIN-214, the company’s lead candidate for the outpatient management of portal hypertension and its complications in patients with cirrhosis.
