traditional IVM system

Sun Yat-sen University · Phase 3 active Small molecule Under review

traditional IVM system is a Glutamate-gated chloride channel agonist Small molecule drug developed by Sun Yat-sen University. It is currently in Phase 3 development for River blindness, Lymphatic filariasis. Also known as: sage.

Ivermectin acts as a glutamate-gated chloride channel agonist.

A traditional IVM (In Vitro Maturation) system is a method used in fertility treatments, specifically studied for conditions such as Diabetic Retinopathy, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, and Infertility. It is one of the interventions used in clinical trials, alongside other methods like intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), to assist with fertility treatments.

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
