AstraZeneca PLC said Thursday that the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration has accepted and granted Priority Review for its
tezepelumab treatment for patients with asthma.
The pharmaceutical company said that tezepelumab is being
developed in collaboration with Amgen Inc. and it is the first and
only biologic to consistently and significantly reduce asthma
exacerbations in a broad population across Phase II and III
clinical trials.
The FDA grants Priority Review to applications for medicines
that offer significant advantages over available options.
