CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / March 27, 2019 / The future of the healthcare stock market is directly correlated to whether companies in the healthcare sector have what it takes to meet the growing health challenges facing society.

Novavax Inc (NVAX) this month shared its financial results and operational highlights for the fourth quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2018. Per the results, in February, Novavax announced top-line data from the Prepare trial, which was initiated in December 2015 to determine the efficacy of ResVax against medically significant RSV-positive lower respiratory tract infection in infants.
Stanley C. Erck, President, and CEO of Novavax said, "in 2018, we committed to focus on our two lead programs, ResVax™, and Nanoflu™ and reflecting on last year's activities, I am proud to say we have achieved significant results for both. Although we were disappointed to miss the primary endpoint of our Prepare trial, ResVax is the first RSV vaccine to demonstrate efficacy for the prevention of RSV disease in Phase 3 clinical trial. In addition, the successful Phase 2 results for our NanoFlu vaccine provide an opportunity to now confirm with the FDA the use of accelerated approval for licensure."

Trillium Therapeutics Inc (TRIL), a clinical-stage immune-oncology company developing innovative therapies for the treatment of cancer, earlier this month reported financial and operating results for the year ended December 31, 2018. Over the course of the last year, the Company initiated a multicenter, open-label, phase 1a/1b study of TTI-622 (SRIPaFc-IgG4) in patients with advanced relapsed or refractory lymphoma or multiple myeloma. In the phase 1a dose-escalation part, patients are enrolled in sequential dose cohorts to receive TTI-622 once weekly to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose.
Niclas Stiernholm, President and CEO of Trillium, commented, "In 2018 we presented clear evidence of single-agent activity in B- and T-cell lymphoma. We believe that TTI-621 is the most potent CD47-blocking agent in the clinic due to its IgG1 Fc region, which can deliver an activating signal to the immune system. What is especially noteworthy is the ability of TTI-621 to stimulate a rapid anti-tumor response when administered intratumorally to patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. We are also encouraged by the activity we have seen after intravenous delivery of relatively low doses, and look forward to characterizing the responses as we continue to dose intensify."
