    On March 22, Odonate announced the termination of the development of tesetaxel and the termination of the company's operations.


    Odonate said that, based on the FDA's feedback at the pre-NDA meeting, the clinical data of teseltaxel is unlikely to support the FDA's approval of the product.


    Tesitetaxel belongs to the taxane class of anticancer drugs.


    As a new type of taxane compound, tesitetaxel has unique characteristics: (1) it will not be excreted by P-glycoprotein, (2) has higher oral bioavailability, (3) has high Water solubility; (4) has a longer half-life (take the drug once every 3 weeks).


    In August 2020, Odonate announced the positive top-line results of the Phase III (CONTESSA) study of Teselstat for the treatment of patients with HR+/Her2- metastatic breast cancer.


    However, the publication of the research data caused Odonate's stock price to plummet by 45%, because investors believe that the therapy has safety issues.
