Aucta has obtained orphan drug designation on this product and the program is currently undergoing Ph2 clinical study in U.S. and later on other countries.
AUC029
AUC029, a non-selective beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agent indicated in the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure in patients with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma, is being developed by Aucta for a new derm indication, i.e. infant hemangioma. Aucta has obtained CTA approval from CFDA on this product and the program is currently undergoing clinical studies in China.
We have expertise in a number of topical dosage forms, including ointment, gel, foam and spray. Topical form presents an attractive segment for new drug devleopment as it has a much longer life cycle than other dosage forms due to difficult to copy nature of the product, i.e. clinical end point study is generally requied for generic copies.
