UroGen Pharma Says FDA Approves Plan For Rolling NDA Submission For UGN-102 From January 2024

(RTTNews) - Biotech company UroGen Pharma Ltd. (URGN) announced Tuesday that it has reached agreement with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on plans for submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) for UGN-102 (mitomycin) for intravesical solution.

The FDA indicated that the current clinical development plan for UGN-102, which includes evaluation of duration of complete response (CR) at 12 months from the pivotal ENVISION trial, will support submission of an NDA for the treatment of low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-IR-NMIBC).

The FDA also agreed that the UGN-102 NDA can utilize a rolling review, allowing for early submission of the Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) sections of the NDA, which is planned for January 2024.

If approved, UGN-102 has the potential to introduce a new non-surgical treatment paradigm for LG-IR-NMIBC, a subset of bladder cancer patients characterized by high recurrence rates and the need for multiple surgeries.

The UGN-102 clinical development plan centers around the Phase 3 ENVISION pivotal trial and is supported by robust clinical data from the ATLAS Phase 3 and OPTIMA Phase 2b trials.
