While You Were Winning the NL East!

M-V-P

How 'bout them Phillies! Could we be heading for an intrablog standoff between IN VIVO's Philly and Boston contingents? Only time will tell...

Sorry for the late and skinny weekend roundup; our flight was delayed several hours returning to the UK after the PSA conference and we were too excited about the Phillies victory (and frankly, without an easy internet connection) to post yesterday.

So we'll keep it short:

• Vernalis' and Endo's Frova hits the wall. The migraine drug's second time around at FDA--its supplemental NDA for expansion of its label into menstrually associated migraine--turned ugly over the weekend when the agency sent the companies a surprise "Not Approvable" letter. As one analyst told IN VIVO Blog today, "there's a lot of egg on a lot of faces" at Vernalis and Endo. The companies had been extremely optimistic about the drug's label expansion prospects.
