EC Approve Roche’s Tarceva

Friday, September 2nd, 2011

GSK Parkinsons Trials Post Positive Results

Tuesday, August 16th, 2011

Pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline’s new Parkinson’s drug has been seen to help patients retain their motor skills following the medication wearing off, reports inpharm.com.

In a phase III trial, the drug significantly increased patients’ time without needing to use the drugs whilst their motor skills did not decline any further. The drug decreased patients off time, where they suffer from Parkinson’s symptoms, by 33.5% from the standard baseline. This represents over two hours more time that patients report that they are symptom free following taking their medication.

Impax Pharmaceuticals, who developed the drug with GSK, said they are “excited to report these positive results.” Under the agreement between the companies, Impax holds the rights to the drug in the US and Taiwan, with GSK holding the rights in every other market. GSK plans to apply for marketing rights in the EU early in 2012.
