New development<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n
Chelsea Therapeutics International Ltd.

This drug has been granted approval by U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

NORTHERA is the one and only drug approved by the FDA that shows symptomatic benefit in patients with this rare form of hypotension.<\/p>\n
The company has said that the initial analysis of its exploratory Phase II trial of CH-4051 in patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis who experience an insufficient response to methotrexate treatment indicates that CH-4051 did not show higher efficacy to methotrexate in the dose administered. This drug is a non-metabolized antifolate.<\/p>\n
