SAN RAMON, Calif., April 14, 2016 -- SteadyMed Ltd. (Nasdaq:STDY), a pre-NDA stage specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the development of drug products to treat orphan and high-value diseases with unmet parenteral delivery needs, today announced that it will hold an Analyst & Investor day:
Date: Wednesday, April 20, 2016
Time: 8:00 – 10:00 a.m. ET
Breakfast: 7:30 a.m.
Location: Lotte Palace Hotel, New York, NY
Fernando Torres, M.D., Professor of Medicine at UT Southwestern Medical Center and Director of the Lung Transplant and Pulmonary Hypertension Programs at Clements University Hospital, will make an informative presentation on Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) and the therapies used to treat it. Jonathan Rigby, President and CEO of SteadyMed, Ltd. will provide a corporate update and overview of Trevyent®, the company's lead drug product candidate being developed to treat PAH, which has received Orphan Designation and with an NDA submission anticipated in Q4 2016.
Mr. Rigby will also discuss the recent announcement that the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has initiated an Inter Partes review (IPR) proceeding against U.S. Patent No. 8,497,393 (the '393 patent) owned by United Therapeutics (Nasdaq:UTHR). The PTAB has preliminarily agreed with SteadyMed’s arguments concerning invalidity, and has initially found that there is a reasonable likelihood that SteadyMed would prevail in challenging the ‘393 patent.
Space is limited: To pre-register for the event, please contact David Burke of The Ruth Group at [email protected], or call 646-536-7009.
An audio webcast and archive of the presentation will be available through the Events and Presentations page of the company's corporate website (www.steadymed.com) on April 21, 2016.
