All patients included in PhotoCures phase III study on pre-cancerous skin lesions (Actinic Keratosis) in Australia
The study completes the formal clinical program for Metvix® in Actinic Keratosis in Australia and will be followed by submission of a registration file for Marketing Approval. Such approval is required for marketing of Metvix® in this area.
We are very pleased to perform our first phase III study in Australia and work together with so many enthusiastic and competent investigators, says President and CEO Vidar Hansson.
PhotoCure expects to release the results from this study by 1st quarter 2001. The study in Australia is a supplement to two phase III studies for Actinic Keratosis completed earlier this year in Europe, where PhotoCure has applied for Marketing Authorisation for Metvix for Actinic Keratosis. Patient inclusion is still ongoing in PhotoCures phase III study for Actinic Keratosis in USA.
