Immunogen's T-DM1 Gets Presidential Treatment
Ohad Hammer submits:Immunogen (IMGN) is still trying to recuperate from the controversial rejection of T-DM1's accelerated approval filing.

The first is a phase II study where it is compared to chemotherapy+ Herceptin, the current standard of care for 1st line breast cancer patients.
