Ferring Japan announces PMDA Acceptance of NDA Filing for nadofaragene firadenovec>
(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ferring Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. announced that the PMDA has accepted the NDA for nadofaragene firadenovec for review, following submission on August 27th, 2025. This non-replicating gene therapy, administered intravesically, offers patients with NMIBC a bladder-sparing treatment option. Nadofaragene firadenovec's quarterly dosing eliminates the burden of frequent treatments, while delivering a non-chemotherapy mechanism of action through interferon gene therapy. The NDA acceptance further highlights Ferring's ongoing commitment to establish the new standard of care for high-risk BCG-unresponsive NMIBC.
Professor Keiji Inoue, M.D., Ph.D., Department of Urology, Kochi Medical School, stated: "Nadofaragene firadenovec represents an option for those who failed NMIBC treatment. As the first choice after BCG failure, this bladder sparing gene therapy offers patients a non-chemotherapy option that transforms their own bladder cells into interferon-producing factories. The 75% complete response rate achieved with convenient quarterly dosing provides hope for patients who previously faced limited treatment options."
