MONTREAL, May 01, 2018 -- Theratechnologies Inc. (Theratechnologies) (TSX:TH) today announced that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has released Theratechnologies from post-approval commitments related to the approval of EGRIFTA®.
At the time of approval of EGRIFTA® on November 10, 2010, the FDA requested that the company conduct two large safety clinical trials.
The FDA determined that these two large-scale post-approval clinical trials are no longer required as the current labeling adequately reflects the safety profile of EGRIFTA®. The FDA also concluded that the size of the HIV patient population with lipodystrophy did not make such a requirement feasible.
In its most recent audited financial statements, for the year ended November 30, 2017, Theratechnologies estimated that the post-approval commitments would require an additional investment of US$13 million, which will no longer be required.
