Aplidin (plitidepsin) to be re-evaluated by the EMA for Multiple Myeloma

  • The European Commission (EC) has acknowledged that an expert from the Scientific Advisory Group, who was developing a rival product was allowed to participate in the Marketing Authorization procedure for Aplidin (plitidepsin).
  • The EC requests the European Medicines Agency, EMA, to re-evaluate the application for Aplidin in Multiple Myeloma.
  • This exceptional decision supports what PharmaMar has always maintained, namely that there was a conflict of interest among the EMA experts who evaluated the therapy.
  • The Company will demand the reassessment process to be conducted with absolute impartiality, equality and transparency by the EMA.
