The Company stated that DX-2930 is currently being studied in a placebo-controlled, dose-escalation Phase 1 trial in healthy subjects, with results expected in Q1 2014. Burt Adelman, M.D., Chief Medical Officer and Executive Vice President of Research and Development at Dyax, commented, "A key finding from ex-vivo experimental studies is the observation that DX-2930 and ecallantide can be compared as inhibitors of pKal. The successful development of ecallantide has clearly demonstrated that pKal is a valid target. We are leveraging this knowledge to develop DX-2930."

Array BioPharma Inc. Research Report
On December 9, 2013, Array BioPharma Inc. (Array BioPharma) announced positive data for filanesib (ARRY-520) as a single agent and in combination with proteasome inhibitors in patients with multiple myeloma at the 2013 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Hematology. Michael Needle, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Array BioPharma, stated, "Multiple myeloma remains an incurable disease, with a significant unmet medical need in patients who are relapsed/refractory to IMiDs and proteasome inhibitors. Filanesib is a first-in class drug in myeloma that is well tolerated and has shown very encouraging clinical activity in heavily pretreated patients who have limited therapeutic options. Furthermore, we are excited about the potential of our patient selection marker, AAG, which should help us identify which patients have the best chance to benefit from receiving filanesib."

Lexicon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Research Report
On December 3, 2013, Lexicon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Lexicon Pharmaceuticals) announced top-line results from an initial Phase 2 study exploring the use of LX1033 in diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-d).

Pablo Lapuerta, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Lexicon Pharmaceuticals, stated, "While LX1033 showed similar improvements in stool consistency as compared to the placebo patients who completed the study, there were positive effects on abdominal pain in the treated group that warrant further study. While this initial Phase 2a study was underway, we completed long-term toxicology studies that would allow us to conduct a Phase 2b study at doses informed by the current results and with a duration of 12 weeks, a treatment period that has historically been important to identify clinically meaningful changes as compared to placebo."
