Europe market has proved so hostile to gene therapies when it comes to pricing and reimbursement for gene therapies that bluebird bio has decided to quit the market altogether, according to Andrew Obenshain, president of its severe genetic diseases unit. — Brad Loncar (@bradloncar) August 9, 2021.
Novartis has shouldered its way into the in vivo gene editing category via a deal with US biotech Precision BioSciences, focused on a therapy for sickle cell disease (SCD). It is also working with Eli Lilly on in vivo gene-editing drugs against three targets, including one in Duchenne muscular dystrophy, under the terms of a $1.4
Oxford University and UK clinical artificial intelligence (AI) company Sensyne Health will partner on a project to find new drug targets for people with hard-to-treat asthma. Dr Timothy Hinks. According to Hinks, “we still don’t understand the causes of asthma, because in the past the scientific tools just didn’t exist.
The Netherlands-based biotech, which is putting together a pipeline of genetic modifier drugs for cancer and rare diseases, said the new funding would also allow it to double its headcount to add clinical capabilities and move to a larger facility. Others working in this area include Maze Therapeutics in the US.
Genesequencing specialist Illumina has started rolling out a new test that looks for a battery of tumour-associated genes from a single tissue sample, and could be used to help guide treatment for a broad range of cancers. The post Illumina debuts its multi-gene test for cancer in Europe appeared first on.
Vertex Pharma has ramped up its involvement in gene-editing medicines for the second time in a week, paying Obsidian Therapeutics $75 million upfront to access its technology platform. . Alternatively, a drug can be administered that switches off the genetic medicine and brings protein expression to a halt.
Since the introduction of a genesequencing method by Frederick Sanger in 1977, the field of genomic data collection and analysis has evolved significantly. Advancement in DNA sequencing technologies have resulted in noteworthy developments in various healthcare-related research fields, such as diagnostics and personalized medicine.
Cambridge, UK-based Biofidelity has raised $12 million in first-round funding for its cancer diagnosis platform, which can detect mutations quicker than current approaches like genesequencing. Longwall Ventures and Agilent have both returned to invest in the Series A, which on this occasion was led by BlueYard Capital.
Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) Library Preparation Kits. Driven by the increasing demand for gene therapies and the introduction of novel and advanced NGS techniques, the market is poised to grow at a CAGR of 18%, during the time period 2021-2035. Likely Growth of the NGS Library Preparation Kits Market. Our Social Media Platform.
The debut – raising upwards of £350 million from new shares – is the largest IPO for a UK biotech company since allergy drug specialist Circassia in 2014.
Combining next generation sequencing (“NGS”) with its technology platform, the Company performs full-genesequencing with deletion/duplication analysis in an array of panels that can be tailored to meet specific customer needs. The Company has received Emergency Use Authorization (“EUA”) from the U.S.
Tripling its production capacity, Touchlight can now manufacture 8kg plasmid DNA, a key component for mRNA gene therapies and vaccines. As per the company, dbDNA is suitable for rapid, scalable manufacture of GMP DNA and can incorporate genesequences of sizes ranging from 500bp to 20kb, which are typically unstable as pDNA.
Gibbs — A recent blog post focused on the potentially negative implications of the proposed Patent Eligibility Restoration Act (PERA) for manufacturers of generic drugs and biosimilar products. By 2010, about 2000 isolated human genes had been patented in the U.S. animal, viral, bacterial) DNA and RNA sequences.
