The FDA said in a safety announcement on its website that it is investigating two unexplained deaths in patients who received an intramuscular injection of the antipsychotic drug Zyprexa. The patients died 3-4 days after receiving an appropriate dose of the drug, well after the 3-hour post-injection monitoring period required under the Zyprexa Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy, the agency said. Both patients were found to have very high olanzapine blood levels after death. Eli Lilly is the maker of Zyprexa. |

Kowa Pharmaceuticals America and Eli Lilly and Company announced results of a pre-specified safety analysis from the INTREPID (HIV-infected patieNts and TREatment with PItavastatin vs. pravastatin for Dyslipidemia) trial evaluating the effect of LIVALO 4 mg compared with pravastatin 40 mg on changes in levels of blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin in HIV-infected adults with dyslipidemia. INTREPID was a Phase 4, multicenter, 12-week randomized superiority study followed by a 40-week safety extension study comparing the lipid-lowering effects of pitavastatin 4 mg and pravastatin 40 mg in adults with HIV infection and dyslipidemia. The results of this pre-specified safety analysis, presented yesterday at the Endocrine Society's 95th Annual Meeting & Expo in San Francisco, CA, showed neutral effects of pitavastatin 4 mg and pravastatin 40 mg on fasting serum glucose and HbA1c levels over 12 weeks. |

Each company will be responsible for their own legal costs, with InSite assuming a monitoring role, the company said. |

| 14:09 EDT | | NVS | Jakafi improved overall survival in Phase III trial of patients with myelofibros
Incyte (INCY) announced results from two ongoing clinical trials of Jakafi, ruxolitinib, an oral JAK1 and JAK2 inhibitor that is FDA-approved for the treatment of patients with intermediate or high-risk myelofibrosis, MF, that were presented at the 18th Congress of the European Hematology Associationm EHA, in Stockholm, Sweden. In a three-year follow-up analysis of the Phase III COMFORT-II study, treatment with Jakafi, which is marketed as Jakavi by Novartis (NVS) outside the United States, was associated with improved overall survival and sustained reductions in spleen size compared to best available therapy. In a separate exploratory analysis of bone marrow fibrosis data from an ongoing Phase I/II single-arm, open-label clinical trial, by 48 months of treatment, Jakafi stabilized or reversed fibrosis of the bone marrow in 56 percent and 22 percent, respectively, of patients with MF, a magnitude of an effect not seen historically with best available therapy. |
