Description:

The tragic death of a second non-ambulatory DMD patient treated with Sarepta's Elevidys gene therapy marks a turning point for the field and should drive all stakeholders to come together to figure out how to safely treat patients with this new modality. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s analysts discuss the opportunity FDA, companies and patient advocates have to share data and identify a safe path forward for the gene therapy field, both in DMD and beyond.
The analysts also review promising early data for amylin agonists to treat obesity from Metsera and Eli Lilly, and discuss the vision for FDA’s future laid out by Commissioner Marty Makary and CBER director Vinay Prasad. This episode of BioCentury This Week was sponsored by ICON Biotech.
