Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
In the normal course of Applied Therapeutics, Inc.'s (the "Company") New Drug Application ("NDA") review for govorestat, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") performed an inspection relating to the AT-007-1002 study. The Company responded to the FDA's inspectional observations and believed it addressed any outstanding questions or issues. Following issuance of a Complete Response Letter ("CRL"), the Company received a warning letter limited to the AT-007-1002 study. The letter identified issues related to electronic data capture, which the Company believes were addressed in prior communications with the agency, including by providing detailed paper and video records. The letter also refers to a dosing error in the dose-escalation phase of the study resulting in slightly lower levels than targeted in a limited number of patients, which was remedied prior to achieving maintenance dosing. Detailed records were maintained by the Company under FDA regulatory requirements, and this information was provided to FDA. The Company intends to respond within the permitted 15 business days to address these issues.
