NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Dendreon Corp. (DNDN) has cleared a significant hurdle in bringing its controversial prostate cancer treatment Provenge to market, but obstacles remain before the drug gets launched.
Provenge could be a blockbuster drug, with the potential to revolutionize cancer treatment by harnessing the immune system to fight the disease, but the Seattle drug developer still must pass a cautious Food and Drug Administration, including the resolution of manufacturing questions.
