Zepsyre (lurbinectedin) is currently awaiting results after final analysis during 2019, from two trials that both completed recruitment in 2018. The multi-center basket trial cohort in relapsed small-cell lung cancer that recruited 105 patients to be treated with Zepsyre monotherapy and it is hoped that results are presented at a future congress on oncology.

In addition, the randomized multi-center ATLANTIS phase III clinical trial that enrolled 613 patients with relapsed small cell lung cancer to be treated with either Zepsyre in combination with doxorubicin versus Topotecan or CAV, is due to report top line results around year end 2019.
