SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Oct. 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Poniard Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: PARD), a biopharmaceutical company focused on oncology, today reported on its corporate progress and financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2008.

"During the quarter we continued to make important progress in developing picoplatin as an oncology platform compound, addressing multiple indications, combinations and formulations. Last week, we presented positive updated Phase 2 data with picoplatin in colorectal cancer (CRC) and hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC) at the EORTC oncology symposium in Geneva. In addition, our ongoing Phase 3 trial with picoplatin in lung cancer (SCLC) is on track to advance picoplatin toward commercialization in 2010," said Jerry McMahon, Ph.D., chairman and CEO of Poniard. "These ongoing clinical trials are generating data that support the development of picoplatin for broad use in overcoming platinum resistance, reducing side effects such as neurotoxicities seen with other platinum therapies, and as an agent in novel combination therapies.
