CorMedix (NASDAQ: CRMD) has received supportive feedback from the FDA regarding its plans to expand the use of DefenCath to adult Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) patients. The company plans to submit a complete clinical protocol by the third quarter of 2024 and aims to start the program by year-end. The FDA also requires a pediatric study under the Pediatric Research Equity Act. An independent market assessment shows a critical unmet need for DefenCath in TPN patients, with an estimated CLABSI rate over 25% and an addressable market of 5 million yearly infusions. Further details will be shared in CorMedix's Q2 earnings call in August.
CorMedix announced that CMS has granted pass-through status to DefenCath under the Out-Patient Prospective Payment System (OPPS). This status allows for separate Medicare Part B payments for DefenCath for at least two years, and up to three years, in outpatient settings. DefenCath, a combination of taurolidine and heparin, is used to reduce catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) in chronic hemodialysis patients using central venous catheters. The company estimates around 100,000 HD-CVC placements annually, highlighting the importance of reimbursement for DefenCath to prevent CRBSIs. However, DefenCath is contraindicated in patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia or hypersensitivity to any of its components.
