JUPITER, Fla., Aug. 22, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Jupiter Orphan Therapeutics, Inc. ("JOT"), Jupiter, FL, today announced that it has received notification from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that its Orphan Drug Designation request for trans-Resveratrol has been granted.
"Orphan Drug Designation serves as an important milestone for JOT as it positions our JOTROL™ product as a potential treatment for FA. We are hopeful that JOTROL™ can ultimately provide a meaningful treatment for FA patients around the world based on the earlier Phase II trial, utilizing resveratrol, conducted by our partner Murdoch Children's Research Institute, Melbourne, Australia ("MCRI"). That trial was an open label trial and generated very encouraging results, where 4 out of 5 very important endpoints were met. We, JOT together with MCRI, expect to repeat these results through a larger placebo controlled study utilizing JOTROL™ to avoid the Gastro Intestinal (GI) tolerability issues.
