Cocrystal Pharma's CDI-988 Secures FDA Fast Track Designation To Prevent And Treat Norovirus

FDA granted Fast Track designation to CDI-988 for treatment and prophylaxis of norovirus infection. Fast Track status can accelerate development timelines and enable rolling submissions and more frequent FDA interactions, lowering regulatory risk for the program. This is a positive, company-specific catalyst for Cocrystal Pharma that could move the stock modestly (order of 1-3%), but it is not equivalent to FDA approval.
