“The fourth quarter of 2022 completed a very intense and productive year for Ascelia Pharma, with a particular focus on the important Phase 3 program with our investigational magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent Orviglance®. In December, we presented an updated plan for the pivotal Phase 3 clinical SPARKLE study with Orviglance that will now be completed with 80 patients due to a significantly higher Orviglance effect than originally expected. Earlier in the year, we successfully completed the two other clinical studies which are part of our Phase 3 program for Orviglance – the Hepatic Impairment Study and the Food Effect Study. Our progress in the development of Orviglance in the fourth quarter sets us on course for a successful 2023. The entire Ascelia Pharma team is excited to bring Orviglance forward towards a successful 2023, with completion of patient enrollment, headline results and preparations of regulatory submission and launch.”, said Magnus Corfitzen, CEO at Ascelia Pharma.
