Sotagliflozin approved in US as “INPEFA”
Here is a brief preview of this blast: Lexicon announced the FDA approval of sotagliflozin as “INPEFA” to reduce the risk of CV death, hospitalization for HF, and urgent HF visit in adults with HF (across the full LVEF spectrum) or T2DM, CKD, and other cardiovascular risk factors. The May 26 approval is consistent with FENIX’s projection following Lexicon’s July 2022 announcement that FDA accepted the re-submission and assigned a full 10-month review period (previous FENIX insight). The Inpefa label has not yet been observed at the time of this publication. Of note, Lexicon is hosting a call with investors on Tuesday, May 30 at 8am ET. FENIX will conduct a full label analysis of sotagliflozin in the coming days once the label is available.
