MT Newswires Live01-15

Zai Lab (ZLAB) said Wednesday that data from the China subpopulation of a global phase 3 trial showed an improved overall survival after treatment with Tivdak in patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer compared with chemotherapy.

The company said the China results were consistent with those seen in the global population as the drug candidate showed a 45% decrease in the risk of death compared with chemotherapy.

Main secondary endpoints of progression-free survival and objective response rate also "favored treatment with Tivdak compared to chemotherapy," Zai Lab said.

The company said it plans to file a new drug application with China's National Medical Products Administration in Q1.

ZLAB shares were up 2.8% in early trading.
