The FDA has issued an action date for the NDA of February 28, 2010 under the Prescription Drug User Fee Act, or PDUFA. In the U.S., patients continue to be enrolled in an FDA-approved treatment protocol, under which Gaucher patients receive velaglucerase alfa prior to commercialization. Shire has also engaged with national and regional authorities outside the U.S. and patients are receiving velaglucerase alfa through pre-approval access programs. Shire confirms it is on track with its filing of the Marketing Authorization Application, or MAA, in the EU for 2009. :theflyonthewall.com |
