Recent FDA Feedback (February 2018) Based on its preliminary review, FDA advised that the results of the pilot study may, on their face, suffice as the sole basis for demonstrating bioequivalence between the Corplex Donepezil Transdermal System and Aricept. Corium 20 |

NDA Submission Strategy NDA to be submitted using pilot bioequivalence (BE) data “Pilot” PK data will serve as the sole basis for establishing BE Full Pilot PK data (>2,500 pages) submitted for FDA review/comment Agency was aware of “pivotal” study being conducted Reviewed strategy with external experts Consensus that feedback is as strong as possible prior to NDA review Potential partner feedback consistent with expert recommendations No longer planning to analyze blood samples from “pivotal” study Plasma samples are secured and stable Available for analysis at a later date, if necessary Targeting PDUFA date in Q4 CY2019 Due to stability timing, NDA submission expected in Q1 CY2019 |
