Talphera, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLPH) announced on October 21, 2025 that Joe Todisco, the chief executive officer of CorMedix Inc. (NASDAQ: CRMD), will join the company’s Board of Directors. The appointment follows CorMedix’s strategic investment in Talphera as part of a private placement financing completed in September 2025, giving CorMedix the right to nominate a board representative.
The new board member brings extensive pharmaceutical industry experience, having led CorMedix through a period of high growth and product portfolio expansion. His addition is intended to strengthen Talphera’s governance and support the company’s focus on developing Niyad, the lead anticoagulant candidate for continuous renal replacement therapy. The appointment also aligns with Talphera’s recent strategic shift toward a single-product pipeline and underscores the partnership’s commitment to advancing Niyad toward regulatory approval.
Talphera’s board now includes a representative from its largest equity investor, reflecting a deeper alignment between capital structure and strategic objectives. The move is expected to enhance decision‑making around clinical development milestones, potential acquisition negotiations, and future capital‑raising activities, providing investors with a clearer view of the company’s governance and strategic trajectory.
