In September, BeyondSpring tanked after the company gave investors a closer look at Dublin-3 data. In a nutshell, the treatment might not be any more effective than existing options.
Recent lung cancer data was a little disappointing, but investors may be missing the point here. Plinabulin isn't intended to fight cancer directly. It's meant to stop toxic chemotherapy from destroying white blood cells. A lack of white blood cells, or neutropenia, is a dangerous complication that frequently interrupts chemotherapy treatment.
On or before Nov. 30, 2021, the FDA is expected to issue an approval decision for BeyondSpring's lead candidate plinabulin. If given a green light to treat chemotherapy-induced neutropenia, it could become an important new treatment for lots of different cancer patients.
