The product has been on the market for less than a year, and all other pipelines have been cut off

The financial pressure is now causing concern among some biotech companies that have already launched their products. Recently, X4 Pharmaceuticals announced that it will lay off 43 employees, accounting for approximately 30% of its global workforce. This wave of layoffs includes the closure of the “Center of Excellence” located in Vienna, Austria, and the suspension of the development of all preclinical drug candidates. Layoffs and business downsizing will save the company $30 million to $35 million. This company just welcomed the launch of its core pipeline XOLREMDI (mavorixafor) less than a year ago (April last year), however, the product launch does not mean that X4 has reached the safe line of cash flow. According to last year’s Q3 financial report, excluding XOLREMDI’s revenue, X4 company’s cash is only sufficient to operate until the end of 2025. However, after layoffs and integration, X4 is expected to extend its cash flow to ...

Merck suspends supply to China, domestic nine-valent HPV vaccine has not yet been launched

Recently, Merck announced in a earnings call after the disclosure of its financial report that it would suspend the supply of HPV vaccines to China until mid-2025 or longer. This is undoubtedly extremely explosive news. You must know that Merck’s quadrivalent and nine-valent HPV vaccine sales achieved US$8.9 billion in sales in 2023, of which 60%-70% came from the Chinese market. Its chairman and CEO Rob Davis even proposed a goal of exceeding US$11 billion in sales in 2030. Why did Merck do this, and what chain reactions will the domestic vaccine market and vaccine manufacturers have as a result? Overdrawn market, weak subsequent growth In the earnings call, Rob Davis bluntly stated that the sales dynamics of Merck’s HPV vaccine product Gardasil in China in 2025 are still challenging, and market demand has not yet returned to the company’s expectations, so the overall channel inventory is still higher than ...

CanSino’s Infant DTcP Vaccine Included in Priority Review

On February 7, CanSino Biologics announced that information on the website of the Center for Drug Evaluation under the National Medical Products Administration indicates that its Adsorbed Acellular Pertussis, Diphtheria, and Tetanus Combined Vaccine for Infants (hereinafter referred to as “Infant DTcP”) has been officially included in the priority review category. CanSino explained that the currently available pertussis-diphtheria-tetanus (DTP) vaccines on the domestic market use a co-purification process for pertussis antigens during manufacturing. In contrast, CanSino’s Infant DTcP is a component-based vaccine, in which each pertussis antigen is individually purified and then formulated in precise proportions. This process ensures batch-to-batch consistency and enhances the overall stability of the product’s quality. As of now, no domestically developed component-based DTP vaccines have been approved for sale in China. CanSino’s Infant DTcP is positioned as a domestic alternative to imported vaccines. Furthermore, the development of this vaccine lays the foundation for future research ...

【EXPERT Q&A】Why aren’t prescription drugs so tightly regulated?

Drugdu.com expert’s response: The reasons for the relatively lax regulation of prescription drugs involve multiple aspects, mainly including the following points: Profit-driven: The demand for prescription drugs is large and the profits are substantial, which leads some pharmacies to take risks and illegally sell prescription drugs in pursuit of profits. In a market economy, the primary business objective of pharmacies is economic benefits, so they may overlook the strictness of prescription drug regulation. Inadequate supervision: In some regions, the supervision of pharmacies is insufficient, making it difficult to effectively curb violations. The limited availability of regulatory resources and the relatively lagging regulatory measures may create loopholes in the practical operation of prescription drug regulation. Lack of consumer awareness: Some consumers lack sufficient understanding of the definition and importance of prescription drugs, making them susceptible to诱导by pharmacies. This information asymmetry leaves consumers with inadequate judgment and vigilance when facing prescription drugs. ...
