Talon signs SPA with FDA for Marqibo Phase 3 trial

Talon Therapeutics has signed a pact with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) related to the special protocol assessment (SPA) for its intended Hallmarq Phase 3 trial to evaluate Marqibo (vincristine sulfate liposomes injection) in newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients.

The Phase 3 study is intended to be a confirmatory study to be completed following the accelerated approval of Marqibo.

Talon president and CEO Steven Deitcher said the SPA represents a written agreement between Talon and the FDA regarding the planned design, conduct, and analysis of Phase 3 ALL trial called Hallmarq.

"HAllmarq will be a global trial with initial clinical site openings expected in the US prior to the end of 2011," Deitcher said.
