Schwarz Pharma says US FDA accepts its NDA for Parkinson's drug Neupro
MONHEIM, Germany (AFX) - Schwarz Pharma AG (Xetra: 722190.DE - news) said
the US Food and Drug
Administration has accepted its New Drug Application (NDA) for the Neupro
patch, its rotigotine transdermal system to treat Parkinson's disease.
The original application for the Neupro patch was filed in September last
year. It was accepted by the European Medicines Evaluation Agency (EMEA),
but the FDA refused to accept it due to electronic issues.
Schwarz Pharma re-filed at the end of January.
The patch has an annual peak sales potential of 350 mln eur, Schwarz Pharma
said.
The patch is applied once a day to the skin and administers the active
ingredient rotigotine to the body for 24 hours.
