It is envisioned that the phase III U.S. trial will start enrolling patients from the start of next year, with the last patient enrolled around May 2018 and the first results appearing around the summer of 2019. TissueGene Inc. would then expect to have the full trial results by 2020 and make a Biologics License Application to the FDA in early 2021.

“We believe we truly have something that we hope would fulfill a DMOAD application,” Dr. Kalsi said.

Kolon Life Science and TissueGene Inc. sponsored the studies. Dr. Lee and Dr. Kalsi are employees of TissueGene Inc.
