Regeneron receives approval under the Commissioner's National Priority Voucher for Otarmeni (DB-OTO)
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals has received accelerated approval under the FDA’s Commissioner’s National Priority Voucher (CNPV) programme for Otarmeni (DB-OTO), a gene therapy for OTOF-related hearing loss.
The company also announced the treatment will be provided free of charge in the U.S.
While not yet officially disclosed, Otarmeni would also likely qualify for a Rare Paediatric Disease Priority Review Voucher (PRV). The therapy targets a rare inherited form of childhood hearing loss and meets the eligibility requirements for the Rare Paediatric Disease PRV programme.
