Medarex (MEDX, Trade ) shares slid 12% to $7.04. Shortly before the end of the regular session, the company said it and Bristol-Meyers Squibb Co. (BMY, Trade ) will delay filing a biologics license application for Ipilimumab, an advanced metastic melanoma treatment.

The companies said the Food and Drug Administration requested additional overall survival data on the drug. They are working on a revised development timeline but the application will not be submitted this year.

The companies also said they're working with the FDA to change the primary endpoint of Phase III trials of Ipilimumab to overall survival from progression-free survival, and that they're still committed to developing the treatment.
