| Description |
|
Gloucester Pharmaceuticals is a privately held biopharmaceutical company that acquires clinical-stage oncology drug candidates with the goal of advancing them through regulatory approval and commercialization. Gloucester's first drug, ISTODAX® (romidepsin), a novel histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, was approved in November 2009 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) in patients who have received at least one prior systemic therapy.
The Company is also conducting a registration trial in peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) with an anticipated sNDA filing in 2010 for this indication. Additional studies in both hematologic and solid tumors are currently ongoing. ISTODAX is approved for the treatment of CTCL and is not approved for the treatment of PTCL or other indications. Gloucester retains worldwide exclusive rights to ISTODAX. |
