Description:

Biopharma companies believe a draft law that seeks to overhaul European pharmaceutical policy for the first time in years is out of sync with innovation, Washington Editor Steve Usdin said on the latest BioCentury This Week. Usdin and colleagues assessed the EC’s proposals in the legislation, as well as what’s changed since a version of the draft was leaked earlier this year. BioCentury’s editors also discussed the implications of FDA’s acceptance of NfL as a surrogate endpoint for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis for companies with clinical neurodegeneration programs, plus the $5.9 billion takeout of geographic atrophy company Iveric bio by Astellas, and a deal by Sanofi to license rights to a Pompe therapy from Maze Therapeutics.
