InvestorNewsBreaks – 180 Life Sciences Corp. (NASDAQ: ATNF) Shares Status of Anti-TNF Treatment, Responses from MHRA and FDA

180 Life Sciences (NASDAQ: ATNF), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development of novel drugs that fulfill unmet needs in inflammatory diseases, fibrosis and pain, has shared progress status on the company’s anti-TNF treatment, adalimumab, designed to treat early-stage Dupuytren’s disease. The company has reached out to the U.K. Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to request a Type C meeting regarding adalimumab; the company noted that it has received a written response from both entities to this request. The MHRA’s response was sent following a scientific advice meeting, noting that the agency sees no need for further nonclinical studies for the planned use of adalimumab to treat early-stage Dupuytren’s disease and that it is unlikely a phase 2b study would be considered acceptable as a single pivotal study to support a marketing authorization application. In response, 180 Life Sciences is preparing evidence to address MHRA’s concerns. The FDA’s response recommended considering a pre-investigational new drug (“PIND”) meeting request to receive further regulatory guidance, which the company plans to request. According to the announcement, Dupuytren’s disease is a common chronic, progressive fibrotic, disabling condition of the hand that results in the fingers curling irreversibly into the palm. An estimated 20% to 35% of patients with a palmar nodule of early-stage Dupuytren’s disease progress to finger contractures. Roughly 12 million people in the United States have early-stage progressive Dupuytren’s disease with another 2.5 million in the United Kingdom and 18 million in the European Union. Currently, there is no approved treatment for these patients.
