BioPorto Announces Submission of Response to FDA Additional Information Letter

COPENHAGEN, DENMARK and BOSTON, MA, June 29, 2023, (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioPorto A/S (BioPorto or Company) (CPH:BIOPOR) today announced that it has responded to the Additional Information (AI) Letter the Company previously stated it received from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The response relates to BioPorto’s De Novo application to the FDA for Marketing Authorization of an NGAL test to aid in identifying pediatric patients at risk of moderate to severe Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). AI requests are a standard part of the regulatory review process.

BioPorto completed additional analytical testing and statistical analysis requested by the FDA and submitted them in a comprehensive response prior to its announced goal of June 30, 2023. The Company continues to be in active dialogue with the FDA in support of its Breakthrough Designation application and the FDA’s ongoing review.

If the application is granted by the FDA, BioPorto’s NGAL test would be the first authorized pediatric AKI biomarker test commercially available in the US.
