Dan’s extensive expertise in clinical research and development in North America will be invaluable as ZEPIZURE®, our innovative needle-free rescue therapy for epileptic seizures, moves towards the market. This appointment adds further to our strong international leadership team while expanding presence in the U.S., as we continue to make good progress towards an U.S. Emergency Use Authorization for ZEPIZURE®, and our U.S. New Drug Application (NDA) filing in 2025,” said Patrick Alexandre, CEO of Crossject.

Dr. Chiche has been CEO and CMO of Kompas Medical Services, a consultancy focusing on clinical research, drug development and medical affairs, since 2006, and in which he will continue to hold executive functions.

ZEPIZURE® is poised to make a significant difference to patients in need of emergency treatment by reducing any delay for the administration of effective drugs. I am looking forward to working closely with the team, leveraging my experience in the industry and in medical products to help ensure approval and a strong launch, and to continue the development of Crossject’s portfolio of products based on its unique needle-free technology,” said Dan Chiche, CMO North America of Crossject.
