Ep. 257 - Schizophrenia, Sickle Cell Drugs, D.C. Update
Approval of BMS’s first-in-class schizophrenia drug is good news for patients and the company’s thinning pipeline alike, but maximizing Cobenfy’s commercial potential depends on readouts in additional indications. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s editors assess the significance of the new therapy and what the pharma needs to do to make its launch a success.
They also discuss the impact of the withdrawal of Pfizer's sickle cell therapy; the work left unfinished on biotech-related legislation in Congress; BioAge's NASDAQ IPO; and the importance of FDA’s Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee meeting on the use of PD-1 inhibitors in patients with certain tumors expressing low levels of PD-L1. This episode of BioCentury This Week was sponsored by Parexel Biotech.
