Peregrine wants to see certain data that can be used as surrogate endpoint(s). These data could, conceivably, break open the trial and precipitate an FDA Accelerated Approval, AA, for BAVI in lung cancer.
That's false IMO. With ramucirumab reaching a stat. sig. OS benefit in combination with Docetaxel vs. Docetaxel alone across histologies there is zero chance that PPHM would file for approval using either of the listed surrogate endpoints of ORR or PFS in SUNRISE. Just ain't gonna happen.
But AA and use of surrogate endpoints is certainly on the table for melanoma, breast and/or liver. But there's that funding problem again.
