Operating expenses are expected to be reduced with the P3 trial in Parkinson’s disease now over. The company is evaluating the data for AP-CD/LD to determine what the next steps may be. While the P3 trial outcome was a disappointment, it’s worth noting that the delivery technology that is the foundation of Intec as a company, did deliver the levodopa as it was supposed to.

As we have noted previously (see our note, We See Durable Wound Closure and 30%-40% COL7A1 Expression as after reviewing the published literature, we believe that achieving roughly 30%-40% of wild-type (normal) levels of collagen VII could be sufficient to restore skin integrity and prevent skin blistering.
