LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CytRx Corporation (NASDAQ:CYTR), a biopharmaceutical research and development company specializing in oncology, announced that the independent Data Safety Monitoring Committee (DSMC) overseeing the Company’s international Phase 2b clinical trial with aldoxorubicin as a first-line treatment for patients with late-stage metastatic soft tissue sarcoma has recommended conducting the clinical trial through completion. This Phase 2b trial allows for a head-to-head clinical comparison of the commonly used chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin with aldoxorubicin, CytRx’s tumor-targeting doxorubicin conjugate. Doxorubicin is dose-limited at a level below its maximum anti-tumor capabilities due to toxicity, including cardiotoxicity. Data from the Phase 2b trial is expected in the second half of 2013.
