In continuation of my update on Oxycodone ER
ntellipharmaceutics International Inc. (NASDAQ: IPCI, TSX: IPCI) ("Intellipharmaceutics" or the "Company"), a pharmaceutical company specializing in the research, development and manufacture of novel and generic controlled-release and targeted-release oral solid dosage drugs, announced that it has resubmitted its New Drug Application ("NDA") to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") for its Oxycodone ER product candidate.
The Company's NDA for an abuse-deterrent version of Oxycodone ER was initially accepted for filing by the FDA in February 2017. Intellipharmaceutics resubmitted the NDA in response to a Complete Response Letter ("CRL") received from the FDA, which provided certain recommendations and requests for information. The FDA granted us an extension to February 28, 2019 to resubmit our NDA under section 505(b)(2) of the U.S. Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and the Company has now met this deadline.
There can be no assurance that Intellipharmaceutics will not be required to conduct further studies for Oxycodone ER, that the FDA will approve any of the Company's requested abuse-deterrent label claims or that the FDA will ultimately approve the NDA for the sale of Oxycodone ER in the U.S. market, or that it will ever be successfully commercialized.
