Ibudilast is under clinical development by Kyorin Pharmaceutical and currently in the Phase II and Phase III in clinical pathway. The characteristics of the clinical trial as well as other attributes related to the drug, regulations, and company play a fundamental role in ensuring the likelihood of transition that the drug moves from its current development stage to next.
According to GlobalData, the latest event to affect Ibudilast’s likelihood of approval (LoA) and phase transition for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis took place on 07 Feb 2022, which increased the likelihood that the drug progresses to the next phase in its clinical pathway and increased the likelihood of final approval for this indication.
In addition, the same event on 07 Feb 2022 increased Ibudilast’s LoA and PTSR for Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM).
GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of this assessment in their Ibudilast Likelihood of Approval (LoA) and Phase Transition Success Rate (PTSR) Report.
