SEATTLE, Nov. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- CTI BioPharma Corp. (NASDAQ and MTA:CTIC) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2016.
“We recently reported top-line data from our second Phase 3 trial of pacritinib and are encouraged by its clinical profile, particularly in patients with severe thrombocytopenia, and look forward to the presentation of the full results at an upcoming scientific meeting,” said Richard Love, Interim President and CEO of CTI BioPharma. “With this data in hand, our top priority is to work with the FDA in short order to seek to address their recommendations for getting pacritinib off clinical hold and back on a development track. This has been a challenging year for us; however, we are committed to bringing novel therapies to patients with a critical unmet medical need.”
