Dec 18 (Reuters) - Checkpoint Therapeutics said on Monday the U.S. Food and Drug Administration declined to approve its experimental therapy to treat a type of advanced skin cancer, citing issues related to a third-party contract manufacturer.
The company filed the marketing application for the drug, Cosibelimab, its lead therapy in development, earlier this year.
