Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq:TNXP) (Tonix), which is developing a next-generation treatment for PTSD, announced today that it will present at the 9th Annual Biotech Showcase Conference being held January 9-11, 2017 in San Francisco, CA.

Tonix intends to commence its 12-week Phase 3 HONOR study, evaluating TNX-102 SL, 5.6 mg, in military-related PTSD, in the first quarter of 2017, upon FDA acceptance of the protocol and proposed interim analysis plan.
