US FDA Orphan Drug Designation Granted to REYOBIQ™ in Pediatric Malignant Gliomas
“Receiving orphan drug designation for REYOBIQ in pediatric malignant gliomas, including the broader scope for progressive pediatric ependymoma, is an important milestone and further validates our approach to delivering targeted radiotherapy directly to CNS tumors,” said Marc Hedrick, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Plus Therapeutics. “We believe REYOBIQ’s ability to deliver high-dose radiation precisely to tumor sites while minimizing exposure to healthy brain tissue has the potential to meaningfully improve outcomes in this underserved patient population. This orphan designation reinforces the potential applicability of REYOBIQ across a wider range of CNS tumor indications and our continued advancement of REYOBIQ across multiple CNS cancer indications.”
