NeurOp Receives FDA Orphan Drug Designation for NP10679 for Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Treatment

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted orphan drug designation to NeurOp, Inc.’s investigational candidate NP10679 to treat Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). NeurOp is working on a subunit-specific NMDA receptor inhibitor for CNS disorders called NP10679. The neurotransmitter glutamate, the most common excitatory transmitter in the brain, activates NMDA receptors.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is bleeding into the subarachnoid space between the arachnoid membrane and the pia mater surrounding the brain. Symptoms may include a severe headache of rapid onset, vomiting, decreased level of consciousness, fever, and sometimes seizures. Twenty percent of strokes are hemorrhagic, with SAH and intracerebral hemorrhage accounting for 10 percent. SAH secondary to rupture of an intracranial aneurysm is a common problem that accounts for approximately 80% of non-traumatic SAHs, 6-8% of all strokes, and 22-25% of cerebrovascular deaths. By time trends, the SAH incidence for 2019 was 7.8 per 100,000 persons, having declined from 1980 when the incidence was 10.2 per 100,000 person-years.
