By Angus Liu When Roche touted data for Polivy in previously untreated large B-cell lymphoma, the company billed the drug as the first potential new treatment standard in nearly two decades. But the FDA sees things differently. |
By James Waldron Anyone looking for a road map out of the biotech bear market will take little comfort from Evaluate Vantage’s latest report. While Big Pharma valuations “regained their mojo” toward the end of last year, the outlook remains bleak for smaller-scaled drug developers. |
By Annalee Armstrong,Gabrielle Masson,Max Bayer We had hoped that our Layoff Tracker would stay retired for a while, but 2023 is starting to look a lot like our old friend 2022 when it comes to layoffs in biotech. |
By Fraiser Kansteiner After handing Narasimhan $9 million in performance-based pay in 2021, Novartis' compensation committee slashed the CEO’s award in that category by a whopping 61% last year. The pay cut, spurred by turbulent performance between 2020 and 2022, contrasts sharply with Novartis’ execution during the first three-year stretch under Narasimhan’s lead. |
By Nick Paul Taylor Merck & Co. has joined the emerging race to develop an Epstein-Barr virus vaccine, paying ModeX Therapeutics $50 million upfront and dangling $872.5 million in biobucks for global rights to a preclinical challenger to shots in clinical development at Moderna and the NIH. |
By Nick Paul Taylor Pfizer is once again looking to a diagnostic developer to drum up interest in its COVID-19 drug. Having kicked off the strategy last year through deals with Lucira Health and Roche, the Big Pharma has now partnered with Cue Health to raise awareness of the risks of progressing to severe COVID-19. |
By Fraiser Kansteiner Apotex on Wednesday kicked off a recall of six lots of the glaucoma and ocular hypertension drug brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution. The company is acting “out of an abundance of caution” after it found cracks on the caps of certain brimonidine tartrate bottles. Those cracks could jeopardize the drug’s sterility, potentially paving the way for unwanted side effects, Apotex said. |
By Annalee Armstrong It’s been a year since Novartis ventured into orbit with Voyager Therapeutics to find new central nervous system targets. Now, the Big Pharma is ready to go deeper into space with the AAV capsid discovery biotech. |
By Kevin Dunleavy In slashing the cost of its insulin earlier this week by some 70%, Eli Lilly responded quickly to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union appeal to producers of diabetes medicines. But Lilly’s initiative wasn’t enough for relentless pharma industry adversary Sen. Bernie Sanders. In separate letters to the world’s other two premier manufacturers of insulin, Sanofi and Novo Nordisk, Sanders has asked them to also reduce the “outrageous” price of insulin in the United States. |
By Andrea Park CZ Biohub Chicago will focus specifically on developing new technologies equipped with sensors and probes that can draw out high-resolution biological information from human tissue at a molecular level. |
By Zoey Becker After a long road to the FDA finish line for BioMarin, the agency just moved the goal post back by a few months. The new decision date for hemophilia A gene therapy Roctavian is June 30 versus the previous date of March 31. |
