“We are very pleased to receive the FDA’s notification that we can proceed with the Phase 3 clinical trial. This announcement signifies the most significant milestone for our company but also for the patients, families and caregivers in the NPC Community as well,” said company CEO N Scott Fine. “We will continue to collaborate with the NPC community as we drive this study forward towards market authorization as rapidly as possible.”
“Through our Fast Track designation, we were able to engage in ongoing collaboration with the US FDA which has enabled us to proceed quickly in the US,” said company Chief Regulatory Officer Michael Lisjak. “We will continue to execute on our parallel efforts with the EMA and other regulatory bodies to achieve a similar outcome on our Phase 3 pivotal program outside the US.”
“We are grateful to the FDA for the positive feedback on our Phase 3 pivotal study design,” said company Chief Scientific Officer and Senior Vice President for Medical Affairs, Sharon Hrynkow, PhD. “We are excited to launch our first clinical sites in the US in the near term, with confidence that the European sites and other global sites will follow in short order.”
Niemann-Pick Disease Type C is a rare genetic disease affecting 1 in 100,000 live births globally. NPC affects every cell in the body due to a defect in the NPC1 protein which is responsible for cholesterol processing in the cell. NPC causes symptoms in the brain, liver, spleen, lung and other organs and often leads to premature death. There are no approved drug therapies for NPC in the United States and only one approved therapy in Europe.
