Amarin's VAZKEPA/VASCEPA failed the primary endpoint of progression-free survival in the Phase 3 EMT2 liver metastasis trial (median PFS 13.5 vs 12.9 months, HR 0.89, p=0.329). However, the key secondary endpoint of overall survival was statistically significantly improved: 5-year OS of 62.0% versus 45.1% with placebo, an approximately 32% reduction in the risk of death (HR 0.68, p=0.030).
