Actavis Inc. Research Report

On June 25, 2013, Actavis Inc. (Actavis) announced that Health Canada has approved the Company's application to market FIBRISTAL (ulipristal acetate) for the treatment of moderate to severe signs and symptoms of uterine fibroids in adult women of reproductive age, who are eligible for surgery. Expected to be available in Canada in Q3 2013, Actavis claims that FIBRISTAL is a breakthrough first-in-class oral treatment that offers an important new option for women in Canada with uterine fibroids, being the first approved medication to reduce fibroid size as well as control symptoms. Current treatments for uterine fibroids include off-label medication to reduce symptoms, or surgery to remove fibroids if they become severe. The Company stated that two double-blind, controlled, multicenter, Phase 3 studies showed that FIBRISTAL significantly reduced heavy bleeding during menstruation, pain and discomfort and the overall volume of fibroids. Besides, the Company claims that a three month treatment with FIBRISTAL helps to maintain the reduced size of fibroid for at least six months.
