Spectrum Pharmaceuticals Reports Second Quarter 2015 Financial Results and Pipeline Update
| |
• | SPI-2012: Pursuing Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) before initiating a non-inferiority Phase 3 study, also powered at 80% for superiority to pegfilgrastim |
| |
• | EVOMELA™ (melphalan hydrochloride) for injection: On track for FDA decision (NDA PDUFA date of October 23, 2015) |
| |
• | Poziotinib: Expect to initiate Phase 2 study in breast cancer |
| |
• | Apaziquone: On track for NDA filing by year end |
| |

HENDERSON, Nevada - August 6, 2015 - Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NasdaqGS: SPPI), a biotechnology company with fully integrated commercial and drug development operations with a primary focus in hematology and oncology, announced today financial results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015.
“The results from this quarter demonstrate our ability to maintain financial discipline while continuing to fund our highest priority projects,” said Rajesh C. Shrotriya, MD, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Spectrum Pharmaceuticals. “The second half of 2015 marks key milestones for several of Spectrum’s drugs. With the potential approval of Evomela in October, we could have six drugs on the market. Pending alignment with the FDA, we expect to initiate a non-inferiority Phase 3 study for SPI-2012 which would be powered at 80% to show superiority against pegfilgrastim. Also, our potentially best-in-class novel pan-HER inhibitor, poziotinib, will target breast cancer in a Phase 2 clinical program. Additionally, with apaziquone, we plan to file an NDA and initiate a confirmatory Phase 3 trial under a SPA by year end. Our pipeline has never been as exciting as it is today, and provides a sound foundation for future growth of the company.”
Pipeline Update:
Two Potential Blockbusters, One Near-term FDA Decision and One Near-term NDA Submission
| |
• | SPI-2012, a novel long-acting GCSF: In Phase 2 trials earlier this year, SPI-2012’s efficacy was shown to be non-inferior at the middle dose, and superior to the blockbuster drug pegfilgrastim at the higher dose tested. Based on discussion with the FDA, the Company plans to initiate a Phase 3 study this year, and is seeking an SPA for this study that would be powered at over 90% to demonstrate non-inferiority and at 80% to demonstrate superiority to pegfilgrastim. |
| |
• | EVOMELA, a propylene-glycol free formulation of melphalan with improved stability: NDA review is ongoing and is on track for an FDA decision on October 23, 2015. This drug is expected to be launched using Spectrum’s existing sales force, and pre-launch activities have commenced. |
| |
• | Poziotinib, a potential best-in-class, novel, pan-HER inhibitor: The Company plans to initiate a U.S. based breast cancer program based on compelling Phase 1 efficacy data demonstrated in breast cancer patients who had failed multiple other HER-2 directed therapies. In addition, multiple Phase 2 studies funded by Hanmi Pharmaceuticals are currently ongoing. |
| |
• | Apaziquone, a potent pro-drug being investigated for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer: Apaziquone is a bio-reductive agent activated by reductase enzymes, such as DT-diaphorase, |
expressed by bladder tumor cells, to form a cytotoxic alkylating agent. Spectrum expects to file an NDA by year-end. Additionally, the Company is seeking an SPA with the FDA before commencing an additional confirmatory Phase 3 Study.

About Evomela™
Evomela, a propylene glycol-free formulation of melphalan,is being investigated for the multiple myeloma transplant setting, for which it has been granted an Orphan Drug Designation by the FDA. This formulation eliminates the need to use propylene glycol containing custom diluent, which has been reported to cause renal and cardiac side effects, which in turn limit the ability to deliver higher doses of therapeutic compounds. The use of the Captisol® technology to reformulate melphalan also improves its stability and is anticipated to allow for slower infusion rates and longer administration durations, potentially enabling clinicians to safely achieve a higher dose intensity for pre-transplant chemotherapy.
About Captisol®
Captisol is a patent-protected, chemically modified cyclodextrin with a structure designed to optimize the solubility and stability of drugs. Captisol was invented and initially developed by scientists in the laboratories of Dr. Valentino Stella at the University of Kansas’ Higuchi Biosciences Center for specific use in drug development and formulation. This unique technology has enabled six FDA-approved products, including Onyx Pharmaceuticals’ Kyprolis®, Baxter International’s Nexterone® and Merck’s NOXAFIL IV. There are also more than 30 Captisol-enabled products currently in clinical development.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, Spectrum reports certain historical and expected non-GAAP results. Non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in the tables of this press release and the accompanying footnotes. The non-GAAP financial measures contained herein are a supplement to the corresponding financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial measures presented exclude the items summarized in the below table. Management believes that adjustments for these items assist investors in making comparisons of period-to-period operating results and that these items are not indicative of the Company's on-going core operating performance.
Management uses non-GAAP net income (loss) in its evaluation of the Company's core after-tax results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that these measures are important components of its internal performance measurement process. Management believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures allows investors to view the Company's financial results in the way that management views the financial results.
The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein have certain limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of the Company's business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures presented by the Company may be different from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
