"The presentation of final data from our pivotal HORIZON study, with competitive results in triple-class refractory myeloma patients, represents the most important milestone for Oncopeptides to date. These data confirm that melflufen has a good efficacy and safety profile in triple-class refractory myeloma patients - a fast-growing patient population with significant unmet medical need and lack of approved treatments. The safety profile was consistent with previous melflufen studies with good tolerability and a low rate of non-haematological adverse events. We firmly believe that melflufen has the potential to become an important treatment option for patients with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma. Study physicians and clinical sites have been immensely supportive and with their help we are on schedule to submit the NDA for accelerated approval end of Q2 2020.”

 

"Furthermore, with the strong final results from HORIZON our Peptide-Drug Conjugate (PDC) platform has been validated. In today's webcast we will describe the PDC pipeline development to date and the possibilities this gives us," concludes Jakob Lindberg.
