SYDNEY , Aug. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Clarity Pharmaceuticals (ASX: CU6) ("Clarity"), a clinical-stage radiopharmaceutical company with a mission to develop next-generation products that improve treatment outcomes for children and adults with cancer, is pleased to announce that the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Fast Track Designation for 64 Cu-SAR-bisPSMA for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positive prostate cancer lesions with suspected metastasis who are candidates for initial definitive therapy. The FDA's Fast Track Designation is designed to expedite the development and regulatory review of novel drugs addressing serious conditions with significant unmet medical needs. For 64 Cu-SAR-bisPSMA, it provides a number of product development advantages.
The designation paves the way for a potentially faster review process once Clarity submits its product approval application. Additionally, it enables more frequent communication with the FDA, allowing for rapid resolution of queries during development. Furthermore, Clarity can submit completed sections of its application as they are ready, rather than waiting for the entire package to be finished before it can be lodged with the FDA.
These benefits would reduce the review time needed to bring this innovative prostate cancer imaging agent to market, potentially improving diagnosis and treatment planning for patients sooner. Clarity's Executive Chairpers.
