PLAINSBORO -- GPC Biotech, a German pharmaceutical company with offices here, has laid off workers locally for the second time this year.

The company, which withdrew its application for Food and Drug Administration approval of cancer drug candidate satraplatin this summer, announced it will lay off 43 people at its Plainsboro office on the heels of cutting 46 jobs at that site in August.

GPC also will cut 60 jobs in Munich for a total of 103 job losses this month, or about 44 percent of its total work force. The move will leave GPC with 58 people in Plainsboro and 56 in Munich for a total of 114 employees.
