Erytech is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company that develops red blood cell-based therapeutics for cancer and orphan diseases in France and the United States. FDA has granted the company's eryaspase Fast Track designation for the treatment of acute lymphocytic leukemia patients who have developed hypersensitivity reactions to E. coli-derived pegylated asparaginase.
"This is yet another significant milestone and meaningful inflection point in advancing our lead product candidate eryaspase, further supporting our recently announced intention to submit a BLA for eryaspase in hypersensitive ALL patients," said Gil Beyen, CEO of ERYTECH. "We believe that the FDA's Fast Track designation for eryaspase underscores its potential to address this high unmet medical need."
Fast track is a process designed to facilitate the development, and expedite the review of drugs to treat serious conditions and fill an unmet medical need. The purpose is to get important new drugs to the patient earlier.
