Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine Sales Tumble After Government Guidance on the Shots Narrows

The fall COVID-19 vaccine season is starting slowly for Pfizer, with U.S. sales of its Comirnaty shots sinking 25% after federal regulators narrowed recommendations on who should get them. Approval of updated shots also came several weeks later than usual, and Pfizer said Tuesday that hurt sales as well. Many Americans get vaccinations in the fall, to protect against any disease surges in the coming winter. Experts say interest in COVID-19 shots has been declining, and that trend could pick up this fall due to anti-vaccine sentiment and confusion about whether the shots are necessary. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention last month stopped recommending COVID-19 shots for anyone, instead leaving the choice up to patients. The government agency said it was adopting recommendations made by advisers picked by U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Before this year, U.S. health officials — following the advice of infectious disease ...

Plans to Advance Multiple Phase III Lung Cancer Phase II Clinical Trials. (This is part of a larger effort to validate the efficacy of PD-L1 ADC.)

Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily, November 3 (Reporter Xu Hong) – “When the HLX43 project was first launched, not many people were optimistic about this direction. But drug development cannot follow the crowd; we must see what others cannot. Why do so many cancer patients still respond when they use PD-1 again after having previously used it? It was based on this observation that I pushed the team to follow up on this direction.” During a media exchange on November 2, Dr. Zhu Jun, Executive Director and CEO of Henlius Biotech (02696.HK), reviewed the starting point of HLX43’s research and development. Today, this project, which started more as a “trial and error” experiment, is beginning to validate its initial scientific assumptions step by step as clinical research progresses. HLX43 is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that targets PD-L1. Its mechanism of action combines the dual functions of immune checkpoint inhibition ...

By Dennis Thompson HealthDay ReporterTUESDAY, Nov. 4, 2025 (HealthDay News) — Low-dose aspirin is no longer universally recommended to prevent heart health emergencies, but it might help people with type 2 diabetes, a new study says. People with type 2 diabetes who took low-dose aspirin were less likely to have a heart attack or stroke, according to findings that will be presented Nov. 9 at the upcoming annual meeting of the American Heart Association in New Orleans. “We were somewhat surprised by the magnitude of the findings,” researcher Dr. Aleesha Kainat, a clinical assistant professor of medicine at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, said in a news release. “People with type 2 diabetes and a higher risk of cardiovascular disease who reported taking low-dose aspirin were much less likely to have had a heart attack, stroke or death over 10 years when compared to similar individuals ...

FDA Issues Safety Alert for Radiofrequency Microneedling

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning consumers, patients and healthcare providers about the potential risk for serious complications from radiofrequency (RF) microneedling procedures. RF microneedling devices are commonly used to improve skin appearance of the face and neck — often referred to as “resurfacing,” “tightening” or “rejuvenation” to treat issues like wrinkles. The technology works by using an array of tiny needles (microneedles) to deliver RF energy and heat into the skin. This heat is intended to cause controlled changes in the tissue, promoting new collagen growth, according to the FDA. However, the FDA has received numerous reports of serious and potentially permanent injuries related to the microneedling procedure. The adverse events reported to the agency include: Severe burns Permanent scarring Fat loss (diminishing facial volume) Physical disfigurement Nerve damage These reported injuries have occasionally required follow-up ...
