Paratek Pharmaceutical’s ‘omadacycline’ gets QIDP designation from the FDA

The Global Dispatch logoBoston, MA company, Paratek Pharmaceuticals, Inc announced today that their lead product candidate, omadacycline received the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA)  Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP) designation for both oral and IV formulations, according to a company press release Jan. 3.

The antibiotic candidate, formerly known as PTK 0796, is a new tetracycline-derived, broad-spectrum antibiotic being developed for use as a first-line monotherapy for serious community-acquired bacterial infections, such as acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI),community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) and urinary tract infections (UTI),  where antibiotic resistance is an area of concern.

The QIDP designation provides Paratek access to certain incentives, including priority review associated with a New Drug Application (NDA) submission, eligibility for fast-track status for smaller population studies targeting certain resistant organisms, and a five-year extension of exclusivity under the Hatch-Waxman Act upon FDA approval of omadacycline, according to the release.

Paratek has completed clinical studies necessary to advance oral and IV formulations of omadacycline into Phase 3 development.
