Business Wire
Edgewise Therapeutics, Inc., (Nasdaq: EWTX), a leading muscle
disease biopharmaceutical company, today provided information
regarding the company’s relationship with Dr. Han Phan at Rare
Disease Research.
On November 27, 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) issued a warning letter to Dr. Phan based on a 2024 site
inspection related to her work with another company. This warning
letter is unrelated to any Edgewise clinical trial or data. None of
the Edgewise clinical trials are the subject of the FDA’s warning
letter.
Edgewise has audited Dr. Phan’s site multiple times and believes
that the data related to the Edgewise clinical trials at the site
are being acquired and stored in accordance with FDA
requirements.
