DiaMedica Therapeutics Inc. has announced the completion of a pre-Investigational New Drug $(IND)$ meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regarding a planned study of DM199 for preeclampsia. The FDA requested an additional non-clinical, 10-day modified embryo-fetal development and pre- and postnatal development study in a rabbit model, with results expected by the second quarter of 2026. Additionally, an ongoing Phase 2 investigator-sponsored trial of DM199 in South Africa has dosed over 30 women with late-stage preeclampsia. Interim data from this trial have shown statistically significant reductions in blood pressure and dilation of intrauterine arteries, with no placental transfer of DM199 observed. The full results of the rabbit study are anticipated in the future.
