Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
Janssen Products, LP informed healthcare providers on September 25, 2013 of an anticipated interruption of supply of DOXIL® (doxorubicin HCI liposome injection). Endocyte’s Phase 3 PROCEED trial evaluating vintafolide and etarfolatide in women with platinum resistant ovarian cancer includes DOXIL® as the control drug. As previously disclosed, Endocyte has purchased a substantial supply of DOXIL® to support the PROCEED trial. This supply is expected to be sufficient to support patients currently on trial and new enrollment for the next 9-12 months, which would be beyond the interim analysis of the trial. Enrollment in the trial will continue uninterrupted in the meantime.
Endocyte will continue to collaborate with Janssen to ensure ongoing supply of DOXIL® in order to complete the PROCEED trial.
