“The positive results from the NAPOLI 3 trial demonstrate that compared with the standard-of-care, the investigational Onivyde treatment regimen extended the lives of people living with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who were previously untreated,” said Howard Mayer, Executive Vice President and Head of Research and Development for Ipsen. “The prognosis for people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer is extremely poor and we plan to submit these new findings to the regulatory authority as, if approved, we believe this regimen could offer up an important new treatment option for people living with an aggressive and hard-to-treat cancer. We thank the patients who participated in the study, their families and their healthcare teams.”
