Melinta Therapeutics (NASDAQ: MLNT), a commercial-stage pharmaceutical Company, engaged in developing therapeutic options for treatment of bacterial infectious diseases, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in January 2020.  The Company had concerns about its financial prospects and warned the investors that it would be difficult to continue as a going concern.
