FDA Extends BLA Review Following Post-AdCom Submissions
On Aug. 24, Capricor announced that the FDA has extended the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date for Capricor's lead investigational cell therapy, deramiocel, for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), moving the decision date from August 22, 2026, to November 22, 2026.
