Material Event Form 8 K

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On November 27, 2024, Applied Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company") announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") has issued a Complete Response Letter ("CRL") for the New Drug Application ("NDA") for govorestat, a novel, central nervous system ("CNS")-penetrant aldose reductase inhibitor ("ARI"), for the treatment of Classic Galactosemia.

The CRL indicates that the FDA completed its review of the application and determined that it is unable to approve the NDA in its current form, citing deficiencies in the clinical application.

The Company is reviewing the feedback from the FDA and plans to immediately request a meeting to discuss requirements for a potential resubmission of the NDA or appeal of the decision along with appropriate next steps.

In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this report, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur at all. Factors that may cause actual results to differ from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements in this report are discussed in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the "Risk Factors" contained therein.
