ERYTECH Provides Regulatory Update
- ERYTECH to stop further plans to pursue a BLA submission seeking an approval for Graspa® in hypersensitive ALL
- Evaluation of strategic partnering options ongoing
“We are obviously disappointed to stop the process of seeking approval for Graspa in ALL after all the work done and clinical promise observed in this indication,” said Gil Beyen, Chief Executive Officer of ERYTECH. “In multiple clinical trials, Graspa showed promising results for patients, and we were encouraged by the dialogue with the FDA and the Fast Track designation that we received for this indication last year. However, the changing competitive landscape, combined with new FDA’s requests for additional clinical data that would require significant additional resources on our part, led to the difficult decision to stop the development of Graspa in ALL. We are now focusing our resources on our most promising preclinical programs, while pursuing strategic partnering options to maximize value for our shareholders and employees.”
