IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: SPPI - News) today announced positive results from the Phase 3 satraplatin pivotal registrational trial known as SPARC (Satraplatin and Prednisone Against Refractory Cancer). The trial is evaluating satraplatin, the first orally available platinum-based chemotherapy in advanced clinical development, plus prednisone versus placebo plus prednisone as a second-line treatment in 950 patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC).
