Initiation of Phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of BN83495 announced

Ipsen (Paris:IPN) today announced the initiation of an international, multi-center, controlled, randomized Phase II clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BN83495, its investigational first-in-class steroid sulfatase (STS) inhibitor, in advanced endometrial cancer. BN83495 is currently being studied in several clinical studies in patients with hormone dependent cancers.

Stéphane Thiroloix, Executive Vice-President, Corporate Development said :”We are very pleased to be moving BN83495 into phase II in this indication. This first-in-class steroid sulfatase inhibitor can potentially significantly improve lives of patients with advanced endometrial cancer. With further indications in breast, prostate and ovarian cancers, we believe Ipsen with its focus on hormone dependent cancers will fully leverage the value of BN83495.”
