Pharmaxis encouraged by first results in bone marrow cancer trial

Pharmaxis Ltd’s (ASX:PXS) Gary Phillips says first results from a three-stage phase 1c clinical trial (MF-101) studying a potential treatment for bone marrow cancer myelofibrosis, have demonstrated strong inhibition of target enzymes LOX and LOXL2 in patients. The study aims to demonstrate that PXS-5505 is safe and effective as a monotherapy in myelofibrosis patients who are intolerant, unresponsive or ineligible for treatment with approved JAK inhibitor drugs.
