Bio-pharmaceutical company Vyome Biosciences today said the US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) has cleared its investigational new drug (IND) to treat moderate-to-severe acne.
"We have received USFDA acceptance of Investigational New Drug application in the US for our lead product VB-1953 to treat moderate-to-severe acne. We plan to start Phase-I clinical trials very soon," a company statement said here.
"With US FDA accepting our first IND application for the lead program VB-1953, we have become a clinical stage company in US, which is an important value inflection milestone for us.
