Telix Files NDA for TLX101-CDx (Pixclara) Brain Tumor Imaging Agent Page 1

MELBOURNE, Australia, Aug. 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Telix Pharmaceuticals Limited (ASX: TLX, Telix, the Company) today announces that it has submitted a New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for TLX101-CDx, (Pixclara1, 18F-phloretyrosine or 18F-FET), a research PET2 agent for the characterization of progressive or recurrent glioma (brain tumors) due to treatment-related changes in both adult and pediatric patients.

Given the potential to address a significant unmet medical need, Pixclara1 has been granted Orphan Drug status3 and Fast Track4 designation by the FDA, which allows for expedited review and closer consultation with the agency during the review process. FET PET (Pixclara1) has already been included in the international clinical practice guidelines for glioma imaging5but there is currently no FDA-approved targeted amino acid PET agent for imaging brain tumors in adults and children commercially available in the U.S.
