Shares of Soligenix (NASDAQ:SNGX) plunged in today’s session, which can be attributed to the FDA’s refusal to review its new drug application. The drug in question is HyBryte, which is being developed in an attempt to treat cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. The FDA believes that the application was sufficiently complete and has outlined the next steps that the company can take.
