Apthera files clinical protocol for Phase III cancer drug

The international Phase III randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will compare standard of care treatment (SoC) versus SoC plus NeuVax for the prevention of recurrence in early-stage, node-positive breast cancer patients.

Joseph Sinkule, chairman and founder of Apthera, said: “The SPA approval process will provide Apthera a clear understanding of what the FDA is looking for and should increase the likelihood of FDA product approval for NeuVax if we achieve the agreed-upon endpoints.”
