Takeda (TYO: 4502) announced on Wednesday that Ninlaro (ixazomib) achieved its primary endpoint in the Phase III TOURMALINE-MM3 trial oriented toward multiple myeloma treatment.

Ninlaro's effectiveness exceeded placebo in the treatment of adult patients diagnosed with multiple myeloma who responded to high-dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplant.

The Japanese pharma major has indicated its intention to share this data with global regulatory agencies. Ninlaro is not currently approved as a maintenance therapy anywhere in the world.
