Announcement of Phase 3 Clinical Trial Results


On February 23, 2010, we received a report of the top-line results of our pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial in advanced non-small cell lung cancer studying our lead product, NOV-002, in combination with first-line chemotherapy. Upon evaluation and review of the data contained in the report, we determined that the primary endpoint of improvement in overall survival was not met in the trial.


Based on a preliminary analysis of the clinical trial data, it appears that internal simulations suggesting positive trial results were inaccurate due to the deviation of certain trial data from our statistical model, the impact of censoring patterns and the survival of patients in the control arm exceeding our expectations, which had been based on historical precedents. We expect to present detailed Phase 3 lung cancer trial results at an appropriate scientific venue later this year.
