Item 8.01 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On April 28, 2014, OncoGenex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) announced results from the Phase 3 SYNERGY trial. Top-line survival results indicate that the addition of custirsen to standard first-line docetaxel/prednisone therapy did not meet the primary endpoint of a statistically significant improvement in overall survival in men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer, compared to docetaxel/prednisone alone (median survival 23.4 months vs 22.2 months, respectively; hazard ratio 0.93 and one-sided p value 0.207). Copies of the Company’s press release and the Company’s joint press release with Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. are filed as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
