Endocyte Announces Phase 2b TARGET Trial Results Evaluating Vintafolide/Docetaxel Combination in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Met the Primary Endpoint of Improved Progression Free Survival

Endocyte, Inc. (Nasdaq:ECYT) today announced results from the Phase 2b TARGET trial, which showed that the study met the primary endpoint for the combination of vintafolide (EC145/MK-8109) and docetaxel in folate receptor (FR)-positive recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. As a randomized Phase 2b study, the pre-defined statistical threshold for significance was a p-value of < 0.10 (one-sided test). The data showed that risk of disease worsening or death was reduced by 25 percent for patients treated with the vintafolide/docetaxel combination versus docetaxel alone (PFS HR 0.75, p-value 0.0696, one-sided test). Detailed trial results, including data regarding overall survival (OS), will be presented at an upcoming medical conference.
