EpiCept Corp., a pharmaceutical company in Eastview, said today it has provided regulators in Europe with a “comprehensive dossier” stating why the regulators should re-consider the company’s application to market Ceplene, a drug to prevent certain leukemia patients from suffering a relapse.

The company said that in recent months a number of medical experts have recommended the approval of Ceplene.
