IOBITRIDOL

Phase 3 active Small molecule ✓ Verified May 2026 Quality 32/100

IOBITRIDOL is a iobitridol drug. It is currently in Phase 3 development.

IOBITRIDOL works by providing contrast in radiographic imaging to help visualize internal structures and abnormalities.

IOBITRIDOL is a small molecule modality used in medical imaging, specifically in laparoscopic procedures such as cholecystectomy and cholelithiasis treatment. It is administered in conjunction with Indocyanine Green (ICG) and Xenetix-CT perfusion imaging for image-guided laparoscopic surgery.

Why this estimate
  • Baseline phase 3 → approval rate +58.3pp
    Industry-wide phase 3 drugs reach approval ~58.3% of the time (BIO/Informa 2023 industry benchmark across all therapeutic areas).
Predicted approval windows by jurisdiction (conditional on FDA approval)
Regulator Country Likely year Lag vs FDA
FDA US 2028–2030
EMA EU 2029–2031 +0.7 yr
MHRA GB 2029–2031 +0.7 yr
Health Canada CA 2029–2032 +0.9 yr
TGA AU 2029–2032 +1.2 yr
PMDA JP 2029–2032 +1.5 yr
NMPA CN 2030–2033 +2.3 yr

CDSCO IN 2029–2033 +1.8 yr
ANVISA BR 2030–2033 +2.3 yr

Hover any row for the lag rationale. Lag estimates are reduced when the drug has FDA Breakthrough or EMA PRIME designation (sponsors file globally in parallel).

Estimate based on the BIO/Informa industry phase transition rates plus per-drug modifiers for therapeutic area, sponsor type, FDA designations, mechanism, and trial design. Per-jurisdiction lags from Tufts CSDD international approval studies. Not investment, clinical or regulatory advice. Methodology: /methodology#likelihood.
