Further to the recent positive results from the Lupuzor™/P140 Pharmacokinetic (“PK”) study announced on 13 April 2022, we are pleased to announce that Avion Pharmaceuticals (“Avion”), our US partner, has confirmed to us, that they are now requesting final guidance from the US Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”), in order to commence the Lupuzor™ Phase 3 trial.
