Citius Pharmaceuticals' (CTXR) majority-owned subsidiary Citius Oncology (CTOR) said it has retained Jefferies as a financial advisor to evaluate possible strategic alternatives.
The company said alternatives being considered include partnerships, joint ventures, mergers, acquisitions, or licensing but has no specific timeline for a decision.
Citius Oncology Chief Executive Leonard Mazur said the "goal is to deliver value to shareholders."
Citius Oncology's main product Lymphir was recently approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of relapsed or refractory Stage I-III cutaneous T-cell lymphoma following at least one prior systemic therapy.
Citius Oncology shares were up more than 6% and Citius Pharmaceuticals more than 5% in Monday's premarket activity.
