Update: Aplidin Phase III success

Positive results from PharmaMar’s ADMYRE Phase III trial of Aplidin in multiple myeloma clear the path for a potential approval in Europe in H217. Separately, PharmaMar continues to accelerate clinical development of PM1183, a follow-on to its marketed anticancer drug Yondelis: a Phase III trial of PM1183 in small cell lung cancer planned for mid-year will add to the ongoing CORAIL Phase III in ovarian cancer (an interim futility analysis after 210 ovarian patients is expected to report in H216). Our valuation increases to €1.09bn (was €1.07bn previously) or €4.91 per share (€4.82), but a successful self-commercialisation of PM1183 in the US (if approved) could lift valuation by 14% compared to our base case.
