Advanced Accelerator Applications today announced its Q4 and full year 2015 financial results. The company reported an increase in year-on-year sales of 26.8% for the full-year and a 14% increase for Q4 2015 compared to Q4 2014. For the year ended 31 December 2015 total sales were €88.6 million (+26.8% vs. 2014).

Other key news announced is that the company had completed its rolling NDA submission to the FDA and that it had also recently submitted a Lutathera MAA to the EMA. In these filings AAA has asked for priority review to the FDA and Accelerated Assessment to the EMA.

Mr. Stefano Buono, AAA’s CEO, commented, “2015 was a pivotal year for AAA. We continued our trend of significant sales growth, and the year was marked by the completion of two key milestones, namely: the completion of our IPO and simultaneous listing on the Nasdaq under the ticker “AAAP” and the announcement of favourable results from the pivotal Phase 3 NETTER-1 trial evaluating our lead therapeutic candidate, Lutathera. We also submitted an NDA and MAA in the U.S. and Europe, respectively, for Somakit, which could be the ideal in-vivo companion diagnostic for Lutathera.”

Mr. Buono concluded, “In 2016, we have already achieved several key milestones to advance the company forward and support our future success. With our Lutathera filing now complete and submitted to the FDA and the EMA and the anticipated Somakit approval in both the US and Europe, we look forward to reporting our commercial developments gearing up towards the launch of both products.”

AAA today announced that the company will provide an update on corporate activities for the fourth quarter and year-end 2015 on April 29, 2016. A press release for the fourth quarter and year-end 2015 will be released prior to the call.

Stefano Buono, Chief Executive Officer, Heinz Mäusli, Chief Financial Officer and Gérard Ber, Chief Operating Officer, will conduct a conference call at 11:00 am ET that day to provide a business update and review the Company’s fourth quarter and year-end 2015 financial results.

AAA today announced that the company has initiated an expanded access program (EAP) in the United States for the investigational product, Lutathera. Through the program, Lutathera is being made available for patients suffering from inoperable, somatostatin receptor positive, midgut carcinoid tumors, progressive under somatostatin analogue therapy. Healthcare professionals and patients can learn more about the Lutathera EAP by visiting www.clinicaltrials.gov (trial number: NCT02705313).

Today AAA also announced a New Drug Application (NDA) filing plan for Lutathera, following the pre-NDA meeting held on the 14 March 2016. Given that rolling submissions are possible under the Fast-Track program granted for Lutathera, the Agency accepted a submission plan in which all parts of the NDA are to be sent by the end of the current month except for the ISS and ISE (Integrated Summaries of Safety and Efficacy Databases) which should be submitted within thirty days after the bulk of the submission.

The review clock for the NDA will not begin until AAA informs the FDA that a complete NDA has been submitted, including the ISS and ISE. The rolling submission will, however, allow the FDA to immediately start the review of the most relevant parts of the application, including the separate Clinical Reports of both NETTER-1 and the Phase 2 study.

Given the fact that rolling submissions are not permitted at the European Medicine Agency (EMA), a complete submission to the EMA will be completed by the end of April.
