The advancement follows the successful completion of the phase 1 dose escalation portion of the trial, results of which will be submitted for presentation at an upcoming scientific meeting. “As our registration strategy for single agent tivozanib reaches key inflection points, with a European regulatory decision expected in the near-term and readout of our US registration-directed TIVO-3 study expected in the first quarter of 2018, our attention is increasing on tivozanib immuno-oncology combinations that have the potential to deliver significantly improved outcomes and tolerability to patients,” AVEO’s president and CEO Michael Bailey stated in the news release.
