Shares of Threshold Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:THLD), lost -4.18%, and is now trading at $0.500. Its overall volume is 263,360.00million shares right now, and average trading volume of 2.79 million.

Threshold Pharmaceuticals, declared that it has initiated a noteworthy reduction in its workforce in order to focus the companys financial resources in the near term on two ongoing Phase 2 proof-of-concept clinical trials of tarloxotinib bromide* (tarloxotinib), the companys novel epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR TKI) licensed from the University of Auckland, New Zealand.

Threshold will reduce its workforce by about two-thirds, resulting in between 20-25 remaining employees. Threshold anticipates the one-time severance-related charge associated with the workforce reduction to be about $2.6 million, which comprises about $0.3 million of non-cash expense related to the extension of the post-termination exercise period for the outstanding vested stock options for the affected employees. The majority of the charges will be paid by the end of the first quarter of 2016.

We are enacting this reduction in workforce as a result of the recently declared outcomes from our two Phase 3 trials of evofosfamide in which neither trial met its primary endpoint of demonstrating a statistically noteworthy improvement in overall survival, said Barry Selick, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer at Threshold. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to our employees who are being affected by this difficult but necessary action. This is a loss to our Threshold family of talented and dedicated individuals who have worked with integrity and passion towards improving the lives of people living with cancer.
