Northwest Biotherapeutics Announces Approval of Pediatric Investigation Plan (PIP) by MHRA
There has not been any news about the company in the past week but back on August 23, 2022, Northwest announced that its Pedicatric Investigation Plan had been approved by the UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency. That was a major new development since the approval of the Pediatric Investigation Plan is essential when it comes to getting approval for medicine for the treatment of adults.
The approved Pediatric Investigation Plan is going to consist of as many as two clinical trials. In each of those trials, as many as 24 patients are going to be administered DCVax-L. It should be noted that the primary endpoints of the two clinical trials are overall survival. It goes without saying that the latest development was a major milestone and that may have prompted the steady rally in the stock in the past week.
