TherapeuticsMD concedes FDA acceptance of NDA and PDUFA date for TX-001HR

TherapeuticsMD which is an innovative women’s healthcare company claimed the FDA’s admission of NDA for TX-001HR. TX-001HR is the company’s investigational bio-identical hormone therapy combination of estradiol and progesterone in a single, oral softgel for the treatment of moderate-to-severe vasomotor symptoms due to menopause.

The FDA in its 74-day letter stated that the application is sufficiently complete to permit a substantive review and that, at this time, the FDA has not identified any potential review issues. The FDA noted that the filing review is only a preliminary evaluation of the application and is not indicative of deficiencies that may be identified during the FDA’s review.

TherapeuticsMD CEO Robert G. Finizio said “If approved, TX-001HR has the potential to be the first and only combination of bio-identical estradiol and bio-identical progesterone in a single, oral softgel to meet the needs of patients, physicians, and pharmacies as an FDA-approved, third-party reimbursed treatment option for women suffering from moderate-to-severe vasomotor symptoms due to menopause.”

The 505(b)(2) NDA submission for TX-001HR is supported by the complete TX-001HR clinical program, including positive results of the phase 3 Replenish Trial, which evaluated the safety and efficacy of four doses of TX-001HR (1 mg estradiol/100 mg progesterone, 0.5 mg estradiol/100 mg progesterone, 0.5 mg estradiol/50 mg progesterone, 0.25 mg estradiol/50 mg progesterone) compared to placebo. The co-primary efficacy endpoints in the Replenish Trial were the change from baseline in the number and severity of hot flashes at weeks 4 and 12 as compared to placebo.
