Y-mAbs Therapeutics…today announced the outcome of the meeting of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee (“ODAC”), which reviewed investigational 131I-omburtamab (“omburtamab”) for the treatment of CNS/leptomeningeal metastasis from neuroblastoma. The committee voted 16 to 0 that the Company had not provided sufficient evidence to conclude that omburtamab improves overall survival.
The BLA is based a single-arm trial with an external (historical) control, which can make efficacy difficult to measure.
The stock is currently halted.
