Business Briefing | Regulatory News: F.D.A. Clears New Cancer-Fighting Drug From Roche

Written By Unknown on Sabtu, 02 November 2013 | 13.58

The Food and Drug Administration approved a new drug from Roche to help treat patients with a type of cancer of the blood and bone marrow. The agency cleared Gazyva to fight chronic lymphocytic leukemia in combination with chemotherapy in patients who have not previously been treated for the disease. Gazyva works by killing cancer cells and encouraging the immune system to fight against them. The agency approved the drug based on a study showing Gazyva plus chemotherapy was superior to chemotherapy alone in slowing the progress of the disease. Patients treated with Gazyva had median survival of 23 months before death, relapse or worsening of their disease. That compares with 11.1 months for the chemotherapy patients. Gazyva will be marketed by Roche's Genentech unit.
