>>Looks like plenty of room for Xyotax to improve upon it.>>

Yes, no doubt about that. APPX has chosen an interesting approach to their trial. Instead of - as is normally the case - matching the dosing and hoping for at least an improvement in side-effects, they appear to have tried to match the side effects and show a marginal improvement in treatment effects. They have taken out the CREMAFOR-related side-effects, but not much more.

I am actually surprised there was an approval here. Maybe this is also the reason for the strong CTIC reaction. The share price was up another 4,5 % after hours. I mean, if FDA can approve on data like Abraxane's, Xyotax should be a slam-dunk, if the survival benefits, which seem to be there, are for real.
