AP Pharma cuts workforce by 34%

28 May 2009

AP Pharma, a California, USA-based specialty drug firm, has implemented a reduction of about 34% in its work force. The actions are being taken  to allow the company to provide the resources needed to continue  advancing its lead program, APF530, towards regulatory approval and  commercialization. APF530 is a long-acting formulation of granisetron  that utilizes AAP's proprietary Biochronomer drug delivery system. The  New Drug Application for the compound was submitted earlier this month  for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting.
