Praxis Bioresearch Seeks Regulatory Strategy Support from MMS Holdings to Develop Therapeutics for Alzheimer’s Disease

Experts at MMS provided regulatory strategy, writing and operations support, including submission publishing, through an exploratory IND and pre-IND submission, with contributions made from a global team on a 24-hour support clock.

“This submission, especially the use of an exploratory IND, shows how MMS is highly supportive of the most efficient ways to get our Sponsors to FDA approvals,” said Ben Kaspar, Senior Manager, Regulatory Strategy, MMS. “Our Sponsors are at an advantage when we provide focused and concise support when needed.”

Dr. Uma Sharma, Chief Scientific Officer at MMS, added, “Our continued support and partnership with Praxis Bioresearch as they are awarded a fast-track SBIR Grant will lead to innovative therapies for neurological disorders. We’re grateful to be able to contribute to the development of life-changing treatments.”

With the positive clinical data from the Phase 0 program and funding of the Fast-Track SBIR Grant, Praxis can now advance PRX-P4-003 to early clinical development.

“It has been a pleasure to work with the MMS team through the successful exploratory IND and Pre-IND meeting submission,” says Sandeep Patil, PhD, MD, CEO and Co-Founder, Praxis Bioresearch. “We appreciate timely insights from Ben Kasper in addition to the tireless efforts from the broader submission team that remained dedicated and enthusiastic throughout the process in spite of our challenging timelines.”
