Aldeyra Therapeutics, Inc  today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted for review the resubmitted New Drug Application (NDA) for topical ocular reproxalap, a first-in-class investigational new drug candidate, for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease. The FDA assigned a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date of December 16, 2025.

“Based on the FDA’s requirement for an additional clinical trial demonstrating the efficacy of reproxalap in treating the symptoms of dry eye disease, and per agreement with the FDA, the NDA resubmission contained a single clinical trial that achieved the primary endpoint of reducing ocular discomfort relative to the vehicle control,” stated Todd C. Brady, M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Aldeyra. “We look forward to a productive dialog with the FDA during the NDA review of reproxalap, which, to our knowledge, remains the only dry eye disease investigational therapy to have demonstrated acute activity in reducing ocular discomfort and redness in pivotal trials simulating the disease flares that are likely the most bothersome aspects of dry eye disease.”
