Amgen Oncology Drug Vectibix Disappoints Zacks.com submits: Biotech company Amgen (AMGN) recently reported disappointing results on its oncology drug, Vectibix, which was being studied for the first-line treatment of head and neck cancer. Top-line results from a randomized phase III study showed that Vectibix failed to achieve its primary endpoint.Although treatment with Vectibix plus platinum-based chemotherapy prolonged the medial survival period to 11.1 months compared to 9 months with chemotherapy alone, the improvement in overall survival was not statistically significant. As far as secondary endpoints were concerned, the Vectibix arm showed improvement in progression free survival (5.8 months versus 4.6 months) and objective response rate (36% versus 25%). However, the results were not tested for statistical significance. Full data will be presented in early October.Complete Story » seekingalpha.com |
