Cobalis Drug Enters Phase III Clinical Trials
It is expected that the ten-week trials will be completed in November. Cobalis expects to report final data from these Phase III Clinical Trials in the first quarter of 2007, followed by submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Dr. Gerald Yakatan, Cobalis' CEO, said, "I am very pleased with the speed and efficiency with which the patient enrollment was conducted, and I believe it is a reflection of the breadth of the market opportunity we are addressing. I would like to congratulate our clinical team on a job well done. Assuming a favorable trial outcome, we plan to expeditiously prepare and submit the NDA.
These twin studies, consisting of 788 and 763 patients, are anticipated to fulfill the requirement for the two Phase III double blind, placebo controlled studies typically required for FDA approval.
