BioAlliance Pharma accelerates its European clinical development of clonidine Lauriad
Based on the incidence of chemoradiation therapy induced oral mucositis in this population, BioAlliance Pharma plans to submit an application dossier to the European and US agencies in Q2 2011 to obtain an Orphan Drug designation for clonidine Lauriad™.
"The orphan drug designation will qualify clonidine Lauriad™ for our "Orphan Oncology" Business Unit, which features breakthrough products for severe and rare cancers. In addition to clonidine Lauriad™, this Unit covers various projects including, at clinical stage, Livatag® (advanced hepatocellular carcinoma) in phase II and the AMEP® biotherapy (invasive metastatic melanoma) in phase I", comments Judith Greciet, Chief Operating Officer, Operations and R&D of BioAlliance Pharma.
