Peregrine's cancer drug gets OK for clinical trials
The Food and Drug Administration gave clearance to go ahead with clinical trials for Peregrine Pharmaceuticals' anti-cancer drug, Tarvacin, the company said Thursday. Up to 28 patients with advanced solid tumors that no longer respond to standard cancer treatments will be enrolled at three clinical sites for the trials. The drug will be administered intravenously. Tarvacin initially was discovered by researchers at the University of Texas Southwestern in Dallas, who worked closely with Peregrine.
The drug uses a therapy that binds directly to tumor blood vessels in an attempt to inhibit their growth.
Tustin-based Peregrine Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: PPHM) is a biotech company that develops therapeutic agents that effect blood vessels and blood flow in cancer and other diseases.
