Oramed Pharmaceuticals reports of successful meeting with FDA regarding its oral insulin
- Co announced that it has successfully concluded its meeting with the FDA regarding ORMD-0801, the Company's novel oral insulin formulation.
- At the meeting, the FDA gave clear guidance that the regulatory pathway for submission of ORMD-0801, would be a Biologics License Application.
- Such a pathway would grant a full 12 years of marketing exclusivity for ORMD-0801 if approved.
- On top of this, an additional six months of exclusivity can be granted if the product also receives approval for use in pediatric patients.
- The FDA confirmed that the approach to nonclinical toxicology, CMC and qualification of excipients would be driven by their published guidance documents, consistent with the Company's expectations.
- They also made specific recommendations for clinical trials designed to provide pivotal data prior to registration.
- Since oral insulin may have a positive more physiologic first-pass effect on the liver with less systemic insulin exposure compared to traditional injectable insulin, at the suggestion of the FDA, Oramed also plans to initiate a three-month trial in patients with type 2 diabetes to evaluate the effect of ORMD-0801 on HbA1c, the main FDA registrational endpoint, later this year.
- In addition, the FDA confirmed the Company's ability to use insulin from different suppliers like HTBT in the Phase 3 study.
