SUDA LTD made steady progress with its pipeline of OroMist® oral sprays in FY2016. This included finalising the design of a pivotal PK trial and meeting with the FDA regarding the Company’s SUD-001 sumatriptan oral spray for the treatment of migraine. During the financial year, SUDA was granted several patents in the US, Canada and other territories, strengthening its IP portfolio.
The Company is advancing towards its business development goals to out-license its first-in-class oral sprays to pharmaceutical companies across the world. Discussions with prospective partners span its treatments for malaria, insomnia, migraine, nausea, and erectile dysfunction, as well as the application of SUDA’s OroMist® technology to new compounds.
The Company’s operations have expanded in 2016 with the addition of new staff. SUDA also took full control of its novel sublingual antimalarial ArTiMist™ with the acquisition of the 20% minority shareholding in its subsidiary company, Malaria Research Company Pty Ltd (MRC).
SUDA anticipates that FY2017 will be an exciting year for the Company with the prospect of securing several commercial deals and creating significant shareholder value.
