Date:5/5/2009

, were $59.6 million, compared with $72.8 million at December 31, 2008. Management currently believes the existing cash and investment securities will provide adequate resources to fund the Company's operations into the first quarter of 2010.

Goals and Objectives

During the remainder of 2009 Poniard expects to:

  • Present progression-free survival data and safety data from two ongoing Phase 2 trials of picoplatin as first-line treatment for metastatic colorectal and castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPC) at the 45th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO); the Company plans to hold an investor event featuring oncology experts at ASCO on Sunday, May 31;
  • Report top-line results from the pivotal Phase 3 SPEAR trial in SCLC in the second half 2009; and
  • Initiate submission of a New Drug Application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for picoplatin as a second-line treatment for SCLC, targeting approval and commercialization in 2010.
