Spectrum continues to collect and analyze data from this trial. Database lock is expected to occur by the end of the fourth quarter, following which a definitive objective response rate will be determined. We also look forward to a required meeting with the FDA once a definitive objective response rate has been reached. Upon positive data and FDA agreement, the company expects to file the NDA application in 2013.
