Oliceridine injection is an intravenous (IV) analgesic designed to improve conventional opioid pharmacology to provide the pain-reducing potential of an opioid with minimum associated adverse effects.
The company expects a six-month review period of the NDA.
The resubmission was based on the outcome of a Type A meeting with the FDA, which was conducted to obtain clarity on Complete Response Letter (CRL) with respect to oliceridine.
The resubmission package comprised data from the multi-dose healthy volunteer QT trial, nonclinical data that confirmed inactive metabolite levels, and reports regarding validation of the drug product.
