This encouraging outcome underscores the potential of D-MNA as a safe and well-tolerated therapeutic option.

In response to the FDA’s requests, Medicus Pharma is committed to making a comprehensive submission in the second quarter of 2024. This submission will include the requested data and an updated investigator brochure, meticulously incorporating insights from the SKNJCT-001 and SKNJCT-002 studies. Furthermore, the submission will encompass Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls (CMC) stability data, ensuring a comprehensive and robust dossier.

Dr. Bokhari reiterated Medicus Pharma’s dedication to adhering to regulatory guidelines and fostering transparent communication with regulatory authorities. By addressing the FDA’s queries and providing comprehensive data, the company aims to facilitate the regulatory review process and advance the development of D-MNA towards potential regulatory approval.
