Synta Pharmaceuticals (SNTA) Said SYMMETRYSM Trial Did Not Achieve Statistical Significance
Synta Pharmaceuticals Corp. (NASDAQ: SNTA) announced the preliminary results of the Phase 3 SYMMETRYSM trial of elesclomol in combination with paclitaxel in metastatic melanoma.
These results show a trend towards improvement in PFS, which did not achieve statistical significance (p=0.111; stratified log-rank test).
A statistically significant PFS improvement was achieved, however, in the normal LDH population, which constituted just over 2/3 of total evaluable patients in this trial.
