UniQure (QURE) shares were up over 18% in Thursday trading after the company said it plans to submit a UK marketing authorization application in Q3 for AMT-130 for the treatment of Huntington's disease.

The plan came after a pre-submission meeting with the UK's Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency, it said.

The company said it has also been granted a Type B meeting with the US Food and Drug Administration in Q2, and expects to discuss key elements of a potential phase III trial design.

The company said it is pursuing additional regulatory pathways in international markets for the potential registration of AMT-130 and expects to provide further updates in H2.
