LUND, SE / ACCESS Newswire / November 3, 2026 / SynAct Pharma AB (publ) ("SynAct")(STO:SYNACT), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on treating inflammation through a novel therapeutic approach known as "pro-resolution", today publishes its interim report for the third quarter 2026.
"SynAct Pharma continued to progress in the third quarter of 2026, both clinically, with our novel pro-resolution therapeutic approach, and financially. Further analysis of data from the ADVANCE study with resomelagon in rheumatoid arthritis provides a clearer basis for designing our Phase 3 trial. We expect feedback from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration by end of year or early 2027. With financial flexibility and funding in place beyond multiple potential value creating milestones, we are well positioned to plot the most suitable route forward for resomelagon while, in parallel, continuing to advance our active partnering discussions," said Jeppe Øvlesen, Chief Executive Officer of SynAct Pharma.
