U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) onAugust 2, 2019 with a PDUFA date ofMarch 28, 2020 . - Announced positive results of two clinical pharmacology trials of Triferic in
China .Rockwell Medical and its partner inChina expect to request a meeting with theNational Medical Products Administration (“NMPA”) to review the results of these studies and discuss whether these studies are sufficient to support a submission for regulatory approval for Dialysate Triferic. - Received a new J-Code from the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”), effectiveJuly 1, 2019 , for the powder packet formulation of Dialysate Triferic. - Intends to provide comments supporting eligibility of I.V. Triferic for TDAPA in response to the recently announced CMS ESRD Proposed Rule for 2020.
- Sales were
$14.8 million and$30.4 million for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2019 , a decrease of 0.5% and increase of 1.8% over the same periods last year, respectively. The Company’s sales during the quarter and to date have substantially consisted of sales of dialysis concentrate products toDaVita , Baxter and international customers. The Company recently signed a new Products Purchase Agreement withDaVita with an initial term throughDecember 31, 2023 and supplies approximately 25% of the U.S. market for dialysis concentrates. - Completed a public offering of common stock, with gross proceeds of
$18.8 million . - As of
June 30, 2019 , the Company had cash, cash equivalents and investments available-for-sale of$35.2 million . Additionally, the Company has approximately$38 million remaining under its at-the-market equity offering facility, pursuant to which the Company may sell, at such times and amounts as it deems appropriate, shares of common stock to support its business plan, subject to certain restrictions on use.
“During the second quarter, we accomplished two critical milestones: commercializing Dialysate Triferic and submitting our NDA for the I.V. Triferic formulation. We are pleased with the progress we have made in a relatively short time. Through our medical education, sales and marketing efforts, we have begun the process of converting U.S. dialysis clinics to commercial use of Dialysate Triferic, and we believe these efforts will support our launch of I.V. Triferic next year, if approved by the FDA,” stated
“Our recent financing strengthens our balance sheet and supports our global commercialization and research and development efforts around Triferic. And, while we are disappointed with CMS’s proposed revisions as set forth in the ESRD Proposed Rule for 2020, we remain confident about Triferic’s future and potential to change the standard of care in anemia management for hemodialysis patients,” continued Mr. Paul.
