Drug firm Wockhardt on Friday said the national drug regulator has accorded a favourable recommendation for its novel antibiotic developed for the treatment of community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) in adults.
The Subject Expert Committee (SEC) of the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) has provided a favourable recommendation for Miqnaf (nafithromycin), the drug firm said in a statement.
The SEC recommendation is based on CDSCO's comprehensive review of the product dossier consisting of non-clinical, US/EU Phase 1, Global Phase 2 and India Phase 3 clinical studies conducted over the last 15 years, it added.
A positive opinion from the SEC of CDSCO would pave the way for gaining DCGI's final approval for Miqnaf, the company stated.
Miqnaf is the once-a-day 3-days-only treatment for CABP patients, including those caused by multi-drug resistant (MDR) bugs.
CABP is the most common infection, leading to hospitalisation and death. Globally, 2.4 million annual dea

Junior doctors in West Bengal continued their indefinite hunger strike for the sixth consecutive day, drawing support from several senior doctors across the country and prompting the Indian Medical Association (IMA) to urge Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to intervene before the situation escalates.
The ongoing agitation has also led the Federation of All India Medical Association (FAIMA) to warn that it would declare a nationwide "complete shutdown of medical services" if any "any harm befalls brave junior doctors".
The agitating doctors are demanding justice for their murdered colleague at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, along with a safer working environment and other important issues.
On Friday, IMA national president RV Asokan met the fasting junior doctors to hear their concerns.
After visiting another junior medic admitted to RG Kar hospital, he expressed his admiration for the protesters, stating, "I am touched by the way these children are fighting for the cause of the

The Supreme Court on Monday refused to entertain a plea over the alleged demolition of properties across states in the country.
A bench of Justices B R Gavai and P K Mishra were not inclined to hear the plea following which the counsel for the petitioners withdrew it.
The bench told the petitioners' counsel that it has recently reserved its verdict on a batch of petitions raising the plea that properties, including those belonging to persons accused of crimes, were being demolished in several states.
"It is already closed for judgement. Be reasonable," the bench observed, adding that its judgement might also deal with the issue raised by the petitioners.
The petitioners' counsel claimed there was data from nine states in the plea and lakhs of people had been affected owing to the demolitions.
The counsel was subsequently allowed to withdraw the petition.
On October 1, the top court had said it would frame pan-India guidelines on demolition of properties and religious structures i
