Juergen Engel, Ph.D., AEterna Zentaris President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "The quarter was marked by continued progress of our current Phase 3 program in BPH with cetrorelix. As part of this same program and with a sponsorship from sanofi-aventis, our partner for cetrorelix in the US market, we initiated the extension of our North American efficacy study. We also moved up disclosure of the safety trial results of this program ahead of schedule, from Q4 to Q3 2009. Furthermore, we presented data on some of our anticancer compounds at both the AACR and ASCO annual meetings, which underlined the breadth and potential of our product pipeline. Also, we were very pleased with Keryx's announcement that they expect to begin a Phase 3 trial with perifosine in multiple myeloma, following their recent SPA agreement with the FDA. We now look forward to disclosing first results of our Phase 3 program in BPH during the third quarter, as we continue to deploy all the necessary efforts to bring cetrorelix to market."
