Travere Therapeutics Submits Supplemental New Drug Application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Seeking Full Approval of FILSPARI® (sparsentan) for the Treatment of IgA Nephropathy (IgAN)
SAN DIEGO, March 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Travere Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq:TVTX) today announced the submission of a supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for conversion of the existing U.S. accelerated approval of FILSPARI® (sparsentan) in IgA nephropathy (IgAN) to full approval. In February 2023, the FDA granted accelerated approval to FILSPARI as the first and only non-immunosuppressive treatment targeting glomerular injury in the kidney to reduce proteinuria in adults with primary IgAN at risk of rapid disease progression. The sNDA is based on 2-year confirmatory results from the Phase 3 PROTECT Study, the only head-to-head study in IgAN versus an active comparator.
