EntreMed plans phase 2 trial of Panzem NCD in prostate cancer
By Lisa Kerner
Charlotte, N.C., Sept. 12 - EntreMed, Inc. began a multi-center phase 2 study to assess the anti-tumor activity, safety and pharmacokinetics of Panzem NCD (2-methoxyestradiol) in patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer.
The study will be initially conducted by the University of Wisconsin's Comprehensive Cancer Center, with additional sites to be added during the third quarter.
"For this study, we chose to assess a valuable clinical endpoint (progression-free survival), as well as a pharmacodynamic endpoint using current imaging technology," principal investigator Glenn Liu said in a news release.
EntreMed is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company located in Rockville, Md.
