Akela Pharma Inc. has announced that as previously requested by the FDA, it has started over again the required inhalation toxicology studies. The studies performed at US based CRO are expected to produce results allowing Akela to start the longer term safety arm of the Fentanyl TAIFUN® Phase III clinical trial in patients in the second quarter of 2009.
