Phase 3 trial shows VAZKEPA improves 5-year survival by 32% in colorectal cancer liver metastases patients.

Amarin Corporation announced results from the Phase 3 EPA for Metastasis Trial 2 (EMT2) showing that while VAZKEPA (icosapent ethyl) did not improve progression-free survival in colorectal cancer liver metastases patients undergoing liver resection, it significantly improved overall survival. Patients taking VAZKEPA had a 32% lower risk of death at 5 years compared to placebo, with a 62.0% survival rate versus 45.1%. The drug was well tolerated with no major safety concerns. These findings suggest VAZKEPA may offer a new adjunct therapy to extend survival in this high-risk cancer population, warranting further research.

Amarin's Phase 3 trial update on VAZKEPA shows a 32% lower risk of death at 5 years in colorectal cancer liver metastases patients.
