Precigen received Food and Drug Administration approval of its lead product candidate, a drug for treatment of adults with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis.
The drug, which had been known as PRGN-2012, is now called Papzimeos.
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis, caused by persistent human papillomavirus infection, leads to the growth of benign tumors in the respiratory tract, generally in the larynx.
In February, the FDA granted priority review, with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act target action date of Aug. 27.
