CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Aug 13 (Reuters) - Transcend Therapeutics Inc. said Thursday that intravenous administration of
Procysteine was not effective for the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

The company also said it can find no explanation for the higher all-cause mortality observed in the Procysteine group during
the Phase III trial.

The company said in May that it was discontinuing the Phase III trial to allow it to unblind the study and determine the safety

near term,'' said Hector J. Gomez, M.D., Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of Transcend Therapeutics
