Esperion Therapeutics, Inc. (ESPR, Financial)
Shares of Esperion Therapeutics (ESPR, Financial) surged more than 10% in extended-hours trading on Monday after the company said that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has removed the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) partial clinical hold on ETC-1002
The action by the FDA will now allow ESPR to conduct clinical trials exceeding six months in duration and, according to the company, it is an important milestone on the path toward initiation of its Phase 3 clinical program for ETC-1002 later this year
ESPR's ETC-1002 is a unique, first-in-class, orally available, once-daily small molecule designed to lower LDL-cholesterol levels and avoid the side effects associated with therapies currently available for lowering LDL-cholesterol. ETC-1002 is being developed primarily for patients with hypercholesterolemia and a history of statin intolerance.
ESPR is an emerging pharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing first-in-class, oral, LDL-cholesterol-lowering therapies for the treatment of patients with hypercholesterolemia and other cardiometabolic risk markers.
