Why Cynviloq™?
1.
Abraxane   sold to Celgene for > $3 billion
2.
Efficacy demonstrated in Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies
Phase 2 studies affirmed clinical activity in MBC, NSCLC, PC,
ovarian cancer (OC) and bladder cancer (BC)
Interim data from Phase 3 study in MBC patients shows activity comparable to
Abraxane
®
Approved and marketed in S. Korea and other countries
3.
FDA concurred that available data supports pursuing the 505(b)(2)
bioequivalence (BE) regulatory submission pathway
4.
Single BE study in MBC patients may be sufficient for approval for
both NSCLC and MBC indications with Abraxane
label
5.
Potential to expand Cynviloq™
label and increase market size
