GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

NT-501 overview

NT-501 is under development for the treatment of glaucoma and macular telangiectasia type 2 (Mactel). NT-501 is an intraocular implant. NT-501 consists of encapsulated human cells genetically modified (designated as NTC-201) to secrete ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), designed to continually deliver a low, safe and therapeutic dose of CNTF into the back of the eye.

It was also under development for the treatment of geographic atrophy associated with dry atropic macular degeneration, ischemic optic neuropathy, achromatopsia, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, progressive muscular atrophy, progressive bulbar palsy, primary lateral sclerosis, spinal muscular atrophies, retinitis pigmentosa, choroideremia and usher syndrome type-2 and type-3.
