Verastem planning duvelisib submission
Verastem Inc. (NASDAQ:VSTM) gained $1.08 (28%) to $4.92 on Wednesday after reporting that duvelisib (IPI-145) met the primary endpoint of improving progression-free survival (PFS) in the Phase III DUO trial to treat relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL). Next half, the company plans to submit an NDA to FDA for the product.
In the 319-patient trial, twice-daily 25 mg oral duvelisib led to a median PFS of 13.3 months vs. 9.9 months for Arzerra ofatumumab (HR=0.52, p<0.0001).
Verastem said the NDA submission will include data from DUO and the Phase II DYNAMO trial in indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) (see BioCentury Extra, June 14, 2016).
