Business Highlights and Updates

“Working through the melanocortin system, PL9643 is a novel approach to treating dry eye disease. The emerging profile of PL9643, with its rapid therapeutic onset and excellent tolerability profile, is a potentially distinct advance in dry eye therapy,” stated Carl Spana, Ph.D., President and CEO of Palatin. “The positive PL9643 Phase 2 study results identify the most appropriate patient population, endpoints, and timepoints for the next study, which is a Phase 2/3 study targeted for mid-calendar year 2021, with data readout in the first half of calendar year 2022. Regarding Vyleesi, our measured plan and investment is showing positive trends and returns with a significant rise in payer reimbursement and double-digit increases to month over month prescription numbers continuing through January 2021.”
