In the article the author writes:

 

Allos presented its phase II results of pralatrexate this past weekend at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ACSO) annual meeting in Orlando, Fla.  The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is expected to release an approval decision by September 24.  Presently, no drug to treat peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) has been approved by the FDA.”

 

According to Allos’ chief medical officer, Pralatrexate might be an effective treatment option for patients with relapsed or refractory PTCL:

 

“’PTCL is an extremely challenging disease, and one for which there are currently no FDA-approved therapies,’ commented Pablo J. Cagnoni, chief medical officer of Allos stated in the press release. ‘The data from the PROPEL study suggest that pralatrexate may be an effective treatment option for patients with relapsed or refractory PTCL, including those with the disease that has been unresponsive to prior therapy. Our NDA for this patient population has been accepted for priority review and we look forward to working with the FDA through the review process to bring this product to market.’”
