Concert Pharmaceuticals Inc. CEO Roger Tung said determining who leads isn’t easy in the phase III race that pits his firm against Eli Lilly and Co. and Pfizer Inc. in alopecia areata. That’s because neither of the other companies has “been very direct about the timelines they’re on,” he told BioWorld. “We’ve been pretty clear that our goal is to have an NDA filing in early 2023.”
Anaptysbio Inc. is calling it quits for developing imsidolimab in treating moderate to severe palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) after its phase II Poplar trial failed to hit its primary endpoint. However, the company said it would continue imsidolimab development for five other indications, including a phase III trial in treating generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) that’s set to begin in mid-2021.
