Nelfinavir mesylate is under clinical development by Pfizer and currently in the Phase I and Phase II in clinical pathway. The characteristics of the clinical trial as well as other attributes related to the drug, regulations, and company play a fundamental role in ensuring the likelihood of transition that the drug moves from its current development stage to next.

According to GlobalData, the latest event to affect Nelfinavir mesylate’s likelihood of approval (LoA) and phase transition for Multiple Myeloma (Kahler Disease) took place on 11 Jul 2022, which decreased the likelihood that the drug progresses to the next phase in its clinical pathway and decreased the likelihood of final approval for this indication.

In addition, the same event on 11 Jul 2022 decreased Nelfinavir mesylate’s LoA and PTSR for Refractory Multiple Myeloma, and decreased LoA and PTSR for Relapsed Multiple Myeloma.

GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of this assessment in their Nelfinavir mesylate Likelihood of Approval (LoA) and Phase Transition Success Rate (PTSR) Report.
