The European Commission (EC) has approved Aimmune Therapeutics’ Palforzia, making it the first treatment for peanut allergy in the EU, according to the firm.
Aimmune has been granted a positive opinion from the European Medicines Agency’s (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) for its drug Palforzia as a treatment of peanut allergic patients aged 4-17 years.
A panel of experts at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is set to weigh the pros and cons of what could be the first drug ever approved to prevent peanut allergy.
