Mustang Bio said that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has accepted its Investigational New Drug application of MB-109 for the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma and high-grade astrocytoma.
The biopharmaceutical company is planning to initiate a Phase 1 multicenter clinical trial at the University of Alabama at Birmingham to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of MB-109 in adult patients with recurrent GBM and high-grade astrocytomas.
Mustang said that FDA acceptance of the IND within 30 days of initial submission was positive for the potential treatment.
The Phase 1 study is expected to begin enrolling patients in 2024.
