Flash2026-11-07

Shuttle Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. (SEC file no. 0001757499) filed an 8-K on November 6, 2026, disclosing a change in certifying accountant under Item 4.01. The filing requires disclosure of prior auditor’s opinion type, disagreements, and any internal control deficiencies — though reasons remain unstated.
