The status was granted on March 9 and is given to drugs that have shown to be potentially effective in fighting diseases with a relatively low incidence and that are of minor commercial interest. \u201cThis is the first time that a product developed by a Brazilian company has obtained this designation,\u201d said Jos\u00e9 Fernando Perez, CEO of Recepta. \u201cThe attribution was based on an analysis of results obtained in our first phase 2 clinical trial, which treated patients with ovarian tumors that were resistant to chemotherapy.\u201d \u2028The designation of orphan drug is not the same as approving the antibody for clinical use, but grants it some benefits, such as a faster approval process and the need for fewer patients in the phase 3 clinical trial. It also gives the right to a longer exclusivity period when the drug is eventually sold.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Recepta Biopharma develops monoclonal antibody RebmAb 100","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[168],"tags":[232],"coauthors":[93],"class_list":["post-41316","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-technoscience","tag-pharmacology"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41316","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41316"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41316\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41316"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=41316"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=41316"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=41316"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
