Arsenic trioxide is under clinical development by Syros Pharmaceuticals and currently in Phase I for Myeloproliferative Disorders. According to GlobalData, Phase I drugs for Myeloproliferative Disorders have an 83% phase transition success rate (PTSR) indication benchmark for progressing into Phase II. GlobalData’s report assesses how Arsenic trioxide’s drug-specific PTSR and Likelihood of Approval (LoA) scores compare to the indication benchmarks. Buy the report here.

GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

Arsenic trioxide overview

Arsenic trioxide is under development for the treatment of relapsed and refractory acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) including acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and myeloproliferative neoplasm. It is administered orally. The drug candidate acts by preventing the production of DNA, which is necessary for leukaemia cells to grow.

GlobalData

GlobalData, the leading provider of industry intelligence, provided the underlying data, research, and analysis used to produce this article.

GlobalData’s Likelihood of Approval analytics tool dynamically assesses and predicts how likely a drug will move to the next stage in its clinical pathway (PTSR), as well as how likely the drug will be approved (LoA). This is based on a proprietary algorithm built from the drugs’ sales forecast, regulatory milestones, cost forecasts, WACC rate and other proprietary data sources found on GlobalData’s Pharmaceutical Intelligence Center.
