FDA panel to discuss Arena obesity drug in 2nd quarter | Reuters

FDA panel to discuss Arena obesity drug in 2nd quarter Reuters: Arena's lorcaserin, which is being developed in partnership with Japanese drugmaker Eisai Co Ltd, was one of three new potential weight loss drugs rejected by the Food and Drug Administration over safety concerns.
Arena resubmitted its new drug marketing application to the agency last month after providing new data to health regulators that it believes will alleviate concerns about cancerous tumors found in rats used in animal studies of lorcaserin.
