By Kurt R. Karst The FDA Reduction-in-Force (Termination)or RIF(T)announced last week has resulted in countless stories in the press and on personal LinkedIn accounts from those RIFd. As the dust begins to settle and we all assess what this means for the future of FDA and the public health, generally, this blogger wanted to call out one particular division in the Office of Generic Drugs (OGD), funded by user fees under the Generic Drug User Fee Amendments (GDUFA), that was eradicated and what t
The Indian pharmaceutical industry is at the forefront of a transformative effort to make CAR-T cell therapy more affordable and accessible, offering renewed hope to cancer patients nationwide. This cutting-edge treatment, particularly effective against blood cancers such as leukaemia and lymphoma, has remained prohibitively expensive due to its complex manufacturing process and high international pricing.
In a recent webinar, Challenges of Drug Development in Early Parkinsons Disease , Tom Babic, MD, PhD , our Vice President of Scientific Solutions in Neuroscience, uses his 40+ years of experience to share invaluable insights into the current state and future directions of early Parkinsons disease (PD) research. Although clinical research in PD began more than 25 years ago, there have been no significant updates in the last decade.
There are over 10,000 rare diseases affecting an estimated 300 million people worldwide where 80% are genetic , 95% lack approved treatments and nearly half begin in childhood. Global rare disease clinical trials face unique challenges due to small patient populations, complex logistics, diverse regulatory environments and cultural differences. Reflecting on these challenges, Michelle Petersen, MS, Vice-President of Clinical Trial Management at Medpace, noted, When its rare, its personal every

The FDA has approved Jobevne (bevacizumabnwgd) , a biosimilar to Avastin (bevacizumab). This marks BioconBiologics seventh biosimilar cleared for use in the US. Jobevne, like Avastin, is a humanized monoclonal antibody that blocks vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). By preventing VEGF from binding its receptors on blood vessel linings, the drug cuts off tumors oxygen and nutrient supply.
