DiaMedica Inc. (TSX VENTURE:DMA), a drug discovery and development company focused on novel treatments for Type 2 diabetes, today announced that it has received feedback from the U.S. Food and Drug and Administration (FDA) on its pre-IND filing for DM-71, the Company's lead compound. The FDA has recommended a standard 90 day in vitro toxicology study comparing the combination product with each active component in separate arms to support the proposed phase IIb trial. This will provide further support for the safety of the compound which was well tolerated in the Company's Phase IIa human study. "The FDA's response provides welcomed feedback on our pre-IND filing", stated Mr. Rick Pauls, President and CEO of DiaMedica. "We will conduct the recommended 90 day study in concurrence with other preparations for our IND filing in support of the larger phase II trial. Based on results of the 12 week human trial of DM-71, the Company expects the 90 day toxicity study will reaffirm the safety of the two drugs in combination."
