Novartis will submit an application next year for a possible
accelerated approval of atrasentan in the U.S. after its phase 3
study met the primary endpoint.
The Swiss pharmaceutical company said Monday that the study
showed a significant reduction in proteinuria, a condition causing
high levels of protein in urine, in patients with kidney disease
IgA nephropathy.
Novartis plans to review interim results with the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration for a potential regulatory submission for
accelerated approval. The study will continue, with final readout
expected in the first quarter of 2026, it said.
