Final trial eh....looks good! "ImClone starts final trial of cancer drug"

By Maggie Fox, Health and Science Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March 9 (Reuters) - A small biotechnology
company said on Tuesday it had started final trials of a new
cancer drug that has so far shown good results in patients.

New York based ImClone (Nasdaq:IMCL - news) said it had received the go-ahead from the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to start Phase III trials of the drug, which is the final stage
before seeking approval.

As a result of the green light from the FDA, Germany's Merck KgaA, which signed an agreement
with ImClone in December to distribute the drug in Europe, gave ImClone a $5 million ''milestone''
payment.
