LONDON (ShareCast) - Pharmaceutical firm SkyePharma was today's top riser after it said its third Phase III efficacy study evaluating Flutiform, which treats asthma, has met its primary endpoints.

"This is the third of the core clinical efficacy trials to meet its primary endpoints. These studies together with the Phase III safety study have included a total of 1,861 patients," said the group.

SkyePharma is now waiting for the one remaining clinical efficacy trial required for the US filing.

"This is being conducted by Kos Life Sciences (a wholly owned subsidiary of Abbott), and is on track to be fully recruited in July and completed in the second half of this year," it added.
