Germany says Otezla gives no benefit to psoriasis patients

[jiml]

Ooh I'll have a look at the translation later, but it's not looking good for otezla in Germany
And yet there have been successes

I didn't know you knew German Jim.

The way I have read it is that the successes you mention are not facts according to what the Germans want, they say "the dossier evaluations don't contain relevant information", and I think it's saying the mentions of the the success story's are based on placebo trails and not on actual comparisons against another treatment.

By what I have read elsewhere it looks like Germany may not prescribe it.

Yes I understand that it has only been trailed against Placebo, so the Germans wont accept that although there is evidence in the trials of a better outcome on the drug than the placebo.
Are Celgene planning any trials against bio drugs like stelara or in your opinion are they fearful they may not come out on top ( do you think they may have already done trials and as the results were not as good as they hoped for have not published them ?)
