Polaris Group (6550 TT) is in a process to file first BLA to the FDA for its lead drug candidate ADI-PEG 20 as a potential treatment of malignant pleural Mesothelioma.
Although Polaris announced positive top-line result from Phase 2/3 study of ADI-PEG 20, overall survival was shorter than existing FDA-approved treatment, causing a massive sell-off in Polaris shares.
However, the results are not fully comparable due to the different mechanism of action of the drugs under trial. Future growth prospect is not reflected in current share price performance.
