Positive data in high-risk patients

Paion has taken an important step towards its goal of US approval for its ultra-fast-acting sedative, remimazolam with the announcement of positive top line results from a safety study in high risk colonoscopy patients. It is approaching another important milestone, with the confirmatory Phase III in bronchoscopy patients expected to complete recruitment soon; top line results are likely about two months later. Paion is on track to file for approval in both the US (in procedural sedation via partner Cosmo Pharmaceuticals) and Japan (for general anaesthesia) by mid-2018.
