No, I am not invested in ONCS. I try to follow other melanoma FDA trials since I am a heavily invested long in PVCT. The ONCS results are from a small patient pool, and the results appear to be materially inferior to PV-10. No patients received complete response. The ONCS partial response and stable disease results were also materially inferior to PV-10. However, it is difficult to compare one melanoma drug trial with another if the reported results don't indicate the stage of the melanoma cancer treated. PV-10 results were impressive for stage III melanoma, and less so with stage IV melanoma. The ONCS trial results don't indicate the stage of cancer treated.

There were 27 new FDA U.S. drug approvals in 2013, and many were breakthrough therapy approvals. The FDA cleared 12 fewer novel drugs in 2013 than the year before, though the rate was in line with historical averages.
