About JDP-205
JDP-205 is a proprietary injectable product being developed for the treatment of acute allergic reactions for the hospital market. A market QUANT study surveyed 110 physicians, and revealed that 86% of responding doctors had indicated readiness to use JDP-205 in place of the current therapy when the product is approved by the FDA. A second independent market research study with in-depth clinician interviews confirmed the findings.
Acute allergic reaction is a serious condition, potentially life-threatening, and has been growing at concerning rates with very limited selections of medications for treatment. JDP-205 will offer an alternative and superior treatment to the current therapy for the first time in nearly 60 years. JDP-205 is projected to have a significant commercial opportunity with its peak annual sales in the range of ~$300MM.
