These published results are from an updated analysis of the PROPEL study, which was the basis of the September 2009 U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accelerated approval of FOLOTYN – the only single-agent approved for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory PTCL. This indication is based on overall response rate. Clinical benefit such as improvement in progression-free survival or overall survival has not been demonstrated.
