Evoke Inks Partnership with Spaulding Clinical Research For Trial
Evoke Pharma announced an agreement with Spaulding Clinical Research for a trial of the company’s lead product Gimoti comparative exposure pharmacokinetic trial.
Evoke Pharma (NASDAQ:EVOK) announced an agreement with Spaulding Clinical Research for a trial of the company’s lead product Gimoti comparative exposure pharmacokinetic trial.
As quoted in the press release:
The pivotal PK trial conducted in healthy volunteers is designed to establish bioequivalence with the listed drug, Reglan® Tablets, and may serve as a basis for the 505(b)(2) new drug application (NDA) planned for submission to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
This PK trial follows recent communications with FDA regarding the final clinical development steps for the NDA submission. The Company held a face-to-face pre-NDA meeting with FDA in December 2016 to propose and discuss this PK trial and recently confirmed the final protocol design during a Type A Meeting with FDA last month. The Company engaged Spaulding to execute this trial and is now in the latter planning stages to initiate the trial.
“We are very pleased to continue our relationship with Spaulding Clinical for our PK trial for Gimoti and remain on schedule to initiate the trial in the second half of the year. We believe a successful PK trial will conclude our clinical development work for Gimoti and may provide the final data needed to complete the 505(b)(2) NDA,” said Marilyn R. Carlson, DMD, MD, RAC, Chief Medical Officer of Evoke. “Previously, the Spaulding team successfully initiated and completed our Gimoti thorough ECG trial in 2014. We look forward to completing the PK trial in the second half of 2017 with the NDA submission for Gimoti to follow in late 2017 or early 2018.”
