- Company has requested End of Phase 2 Meeting and Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD) based upon the positive FDA Meeting feedback
Concurrent with this announcement, the Company announced that it has submitted End of Phase 2 Meeting and Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD) requests to FDA based on the positive Type D Meeting feedback.
