    New Delhi: Drug major Sun Pharmaceutical Industries said the US health regulator has accepted biologics licence application (BLA) for tildrakizumab for the treatment of psoriasis.


    "The FDA filing acceptance follows the acceptance of the regulatory filing of tildrakizumab by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in March 2017. Tildrakizumab is an being evaluated for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis," Sun Pharma said in a regulatory filing.


    Sun Pharma CEO -North America Business Abhay Gandhi said: "The acceptance of the regulatory filing by the US FDA marks a significant milestone as we seek to advance for tildrakizumab as a potential new treatment option for people who continue to struggle everyday with the chronic nature of psoriasis".


    The company said that the BLA filing for tildrakizumab with the US FDA is based on two pivotal Phase III trials which included over 1,800 patients across more than 200 clinical trial sites, including some patients who have been treated with tildrakizumab for up to three-and-a-half years.


    The BLA filing for tildrakizumab was submitted by Merck & Co., Inc., Kenilworth, NJ, USA, it added.


    The BLA is a request for permission to introduce, or deliver for introduction, a biologic product into interstate commerce, as per the US FDA.


    Shares of Sun Pharma were trading 0.23 per cent higher at Rs 613.95 on BSE.
