OUCH:Vion Suspends Phase III Trial Of Drug For Relapsed AML >VION

DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
May 23, 2007 8:09 a.m.

Vion Pharmaceuticals Inc. (VION) suspended the Phase III trial of its Cloretazine drug for patients with relapsed adult myelogenous leukemia, pending a detailed review of data from the trial.

The New Haven, Conn., biopharmaceutical company said a review of interim data by the trial's independent data safety monitoring board found that any advantage in complete remission could be compromised by the observed on-study mortality to date.

Vion said data from the trial, which included 210 patients, will remain blinded while a complete medical review is conducted.
