Item 8.01  Other Events

Rockwell Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that on November 6, 2014, the Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee (“ODAC”) of the U.S. Food & Drug Administration recommended that the Phase 3 efficacy and safety results for the Company’s lead investigational drug, Triferic, support a positive benefit/risk to treat iron loss to maintain hemoglobin in patients with hemodialysis-dependent stage 5 chronic kidney disease. The ODAC voted in favor of Triferic by a vote of 8 to 3.

The ODAC reviewed safety and efficacy data from Rockwell’s overall clinical program. During the clinical program more than 1,400 patients were treated with Triferic and more than 100,000 individual administrations were given. The results from the clinical trials have shown Triferic to be an effective and highly-differentiated iron delivery therapy with a safety profile similar to placebo.
