What is Farydak?

Farydak is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by Secura Bio, Inc. Farydak, is classed as a histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDAC). It is used in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone, to treat multiple myeloma patients who have received at least 2 prior treatments, including bortezomib and an immunomodulatory agent.

Multiple myeloma is a type of blood cancer that begins in white blood cells called plasma cells. Multiple myeloma causes plasma cells to multiply rapidly, crowding out other blood cells from the bone marrow. Farydak helps to slow the over-development of the plasma cells.

This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on progression-free survival. Continued approval for this indication may be based upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials.
