Johnson & Johnson Research Report
On December 8, 2013, Janssen Research & Development, LLC (Janssen), a part of Johnson & Johnson's Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies, reported positive results from a pivotal Phase 2 global registration study (MCD2001). According to the Company, siltuximab, which is an investigational compound, along with best supportive care (BSC), exhibited statistically significant efficacy and a tolerable safety profile compared with placebo and BSC in treating patients with the rare disorder Multicentric Castleman's Disease (MCD) who are HIV-negative and human herpes virus-8 (HHV-8)-negative. Commenting on the results, the lead study investigator Raymond S. Wong, MBChB, M.D., Prince of Wales Hospital, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, stated, "MCD is a devastating disease that weakens the immune system and may lead to life-threatening infections." "These results are encouraging and from my perspective support the potential for siltuximab as a new treatment for these patients who previously had no approved treatment options."

Array BioPharma, Inc. Research Report
On December 9, 2013, Array BioPharma, Inc. (Array BioPharma) announced updated clinical safety and efficacy data on ARRY-614 in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) at the 2013 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Hematology. Guillermo Garcia-Manero, M.D., Professor, Department of Leukemia, Division of Cancer Medicine, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, stated, "The emerging results from this study with ARRY-614 are very promising. ARRY-614 was generally well tolerated in these lower-risk MDS patients and I am particularly encouraged with the platelet effects observed in patients with thrombocytopenia, including platelet transfusion independence. Responses were seen in patients for whom hypomethylating agents had failed, a group with no available treatment options." Michael Needle, M.D., Chief Medical Officer, Array BioPharma, also added, "Significant unmet needs remain in the treatment of MDS. ARRY-614 is thought to operate at the progenitor cell level, distinct from currently available therapies, offering a unique mechanism of action for treatment of the cytopenias associated with MDS."
