Today announced confirmation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that its proposed Phase II protocol for CH-4051 in rheumatoid arthritis has been approved by the agency. Chelsea plans to initiate patient screening next month and initiating treatment in October.
This multi-national, double-blind, randomized Phase II trial of CH-4051, an orally available metabolically stable antifolate, is intended to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CH-4051 in a 250-patient head-to-head study against methotrexate (MTX).
