CalciMedica has secured FDA alignment on the design of its Phase 2b trial for Auxora, a treatment for acute pancreatitis. The agreement covers key trial endpoints and a biomarker-based patient selection strategy, establishing a potential regulatory pathway in a disease area with no currently approved therapies.

◆ The Wire takeaway

The FDA is actively co-designing pivotal trials for diseases that lack any approved drugs. If you are developing a first-in-class therapy, your regulatory strategy should now include proposing novel endpoints and biomarker-driven patient selection, as CalciMedica has just proven is possible.
