FDA Grants Fast Track Designation for MediciNova's MN-166 (ibudilast) for Progressive Multiple Sclerosis
GlobeNewswire - Tue Mar 22, 5:09AM CDT
MediciNova, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on the NASDAQ Global Market (NASDAQ:MNOV) and the JASDAQ Market of the Tokyo Stock Exchange (Code Number:4875), today announced that it has received Fast Track designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the development of MN-166 (ibudilast) for the treatment of patients with progressive multiple sclerosis (progressive MS). Progressive MS includes both primary progressive MS (PPMS) and secondary progressive MS (SPMS). Fast Track is a process designed to facilitate the development and expedite the review of drugs that are intended to treat serious or life-threatening diseases and demonstrate the potential to address unmet medical needs for such diseases. An important feature of the FDA's Fast Track program is that it emphasizes frequent communication between the FDA and the sponsor throughout the entire drug development and review process to improve the efficiency of product development. Accordingly, Fast Track status can potentially lead to a shortened timeline to ultimate drug approval.
