Provectus Biopharmaceuticals Submits PV-10 Phase 3 Melanoma Protocol to FDA
Thursday November 6, 2014
KNOXVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Provectus Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE MKT: PVCT, www.pvct.com), a development-stage oncology and dermatology biopharmaceutical company, announced today that it has submitted its phase 3 protocol for evaluation of PV-10 for treatment of locally advanced cutaneous melanoma to the FDA. The FDA is expected to review the submission and comment on the proposed study population, clinical endpoints, and statistical analyses within 30 to 45 days. Provectus believes details of the protocol will be available publicly on www.clinicaltrials.gov within the next few days.
The submission of the protocol follows completion of the due diligence audit of Provectus' regulatory documents for PV-10 and PH-10. The purpose of the audit was to ensure that all the regulatory documents were in order.
Provectus anticipates few, if any, significant issues to arise from review of the protocol based on the substantive contact it has had with the FDA since the Company had its Type C meeting with the Agency on December 16, 2013. In particular in its letter of May 16, 2014 to the Company, the FDA gave guidance on assessment methods and endpoints that Provectus has incorporated into its phase 3 submission.
Shareholders received a letter from the CEO dated July 8, 2014 that detailed these interactions with the FDA. The letter read in part, "The primary endpoint of the study is progression-free survival (PFS) assessed using standard RECIST 1.1 criteria. Secondary endpoints are complete response rate and overall survival. Progression-free survival and overall survival are standard endpoints for oncology approvals. With these assessment methods and endpoints we're following what the FDA has suggested to document the clinical benefit to patients after intralesional injection. And, we'll measure patient reported outcomes to better characterize the relationship between complete response and symptoms of locally advanced cutaneous melanoma, such as pain and bleeding."
