SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Jan. 03, 2017 -- Portola Pharmaceuticals, Inc.® (Nasdaq:PTLA) today announced that it will host an investor webcast to review recent achievements and corporate and product milestones over the next year. The webcast, which will take place on Tuesday, January 10, at 7 a.m. Pacific Time (10 a.m. Eastern Time), will coincide with the 35th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco.
During the investor event, Portola’s senior management team will provide updates on clinical, regulatory and manufacturing milestones for its three wholly-owned product candidates, AndexXa™ (andexanet alfa), betrixaban and cerdulatinib.
AndexXa, a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-designated Breakthrough Therapy, is in development for patients treated with a direct (apixaban, rivaroxaban or edoxaban) or indirect (enoxaparin) Factor Xa inhibitor when reversal of anticoagulation is needed due to life-threatening or uncontrolled bleeding. Betrixaban, which has Fast Track designation from the FDA, is an oral Factor Xa inhibitor anticoagulant in development for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in acute medically ill patients. Cerdulatinib, an oral, dual Syk/JAK kinase inhibitor, is in development to treat patients with resistant or relapsed hematologic cancer.
