June 1, 2009 8:16 AM EDT

Investigators presented data at the 2009 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) from four clinical trials with ARQ 197, an inhibitor of the c-MET receptor tyrosine kinase under development by ArQule, Inc. (Nasdaq: ARQL) and Daiichi Sankyo Co., Ltd.

"Key findings from these studies with ARQ 197 include clinical benefit shown in preliminary results from an ongoing Phase 2 trial in patients with MiT-associated tumors, evidence of prolonged stable disease among patients with advanced metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in a Phase 1 combination with erlotinib, and the observation of an anti-angiogenic effect in a Phase 1 trial among patients with metastatic solid tumors that supports previously presented clinical and pre-clinical data," said Paolo Pucci, chief executive officer of ArQule.
