Portable Rapid PCR Diagnostic to Detect Gonorrhea and Antibiotic Susceptibility

Gonorrhea, ranked as the second most reported bacterial sexually transmitted infection (STI), affected approximately 82 million people globally in 2020. The infection can lead to severe health complications, including pelvic inflammatory disease, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility. Untreated gonorrhea may progress to the bloodstream, posing a life-threatening risk and increasing the likelihood of HIV infection. Many cases go unreported due to asymptomatic patients, implying that the actual burden of the disease may be significantly higher. Now, a rapid test aims to identify gonorrhea and also determine its antibiotic susceptibility. Visby Medical (San Jose, CA, USA) has been awarded up to USD 1.8 million by CARB-X (Boston, MA, USA) for the development of a portable rapid polymerase chain reaction (PCR) diagnostic to identify the presence of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG), the pathogen responsible for gonorrhea, and ascertain its susceptibility to ciprofloxacin. Ciprofloxacin was once a primary oral antibiotic for treating NG but ...

Key Trends from the 2024 J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference

Key trends such as the resilience of the emerging biopharma space, the complexities of Medicare, and the revolutionary role of data and AI are shaping the future of the industry. By SUJAY JADHAV Beneath the Californian sunshine (and a few showers) at JP Morgan, a revolution simmers. Not a political one, but a healthcare revolution propelled by necessity and fueled by innovation. Imagine a future where groundbreaking therapies reach patients years sooner, personalized treatments offer hope for chronic diseases, and healthcare costs become more manageable for everyone. This isn’t science fiction; it’s the promise of the cutting-edge trends made at the annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference earlier this month. For those that attended JPM in early 2023, you may recall it was quite gloomy coming off of a soft 2022 and an interest rate burdened 2023. JPM 2024 had an air of optimism.

Eli Lilly Sounds Off as Early Data Show How Gene Therapy Can Restore Hearing

Eli Lilly said its experimental gene therapy restored hearing in a boy born with profound hearing loss. The results for this experimental treatment come three months after Regeneron Pharmaceuticals reported early but encouraging data for its hearing loss gene therapy. By FRANK VINLUAN Gene therapy made its first breakthroughs slowing vision loss from inherited eye disorders. Eli Lilly is making the ear this therapeutic modality’s next proving ground, and the pharmaceutical giant now has some encouraging early clinical trial results showing it can work. An 11-year-old boy with profound hearing loss experienced restored hearing within 30 days of receiving the gene therapy, AK-OTOF, Lilly announced Tuesday. These are results for just one patient—the first in a clinical trial that could enroll up to 150 participants. But this early result is a promising sign for the therapy, which Lilly gained in 2022 through the $487 million acquisition of its developer, Akouos. ...

Allakos Skin Drug Fails 2 Mid-Stage Tests, Sparks Restructuring to Cut 50% of Staff

Allakos’s lirentelimab did not beat a placebo in separate Phase 2 tests in atopic dermatitis and spontaneous chronic urticaria. A restructuring now turns the biotech’s focus to an early-stage drug candidate also designed to treat inflammation. By FRANK VINLUAN The lead therapeutic candidate of Allakos has failed in two mid-stage clinical trials for inflammatory skin disorders, leading the biotech to halt work on the drug. Allakos is shifting its focus to an earlier-stage program in its pipeline but will do so with fewer staff. A corporate shakeup is shaving about half of the company’s workforce. San Carlos, California-based Allakos aims to treat allergic, inflammatory, and proliferative diseases with antibodies that target receptors on cells that create immune responses in the body. By activating inhibitory receptors, these drugs are intended to stop inflammation. Its most advanced drug candidate was lirentelimab, which was designed to target an inhibitory receptor on mast cells ...
