PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Hemispherx Biopharma Inc. said Tuesday the FDA declined approval for the biotechnology company’s experimental intravenous drug Ampligen as a treatment for chronic fatigue syndrome. The company said the FDA cited two key studies as not proving the drug is effective and recommends an additional study. Also, the FDA noted manufacturing issues that need to be resolved. Hemispherx is seeking an expedited meeting with the FDA to discuss options.
