Protecting the bladder is definitely a topic worth paying attention to for pharmaceutical companies. The core reason is that there are many patients who face the decision of whether to keep their bladders. Bladder cancer is the tenth most common cancer in the world, with more than 614,000 new cases of bladder cancer in 2022. About 70% of patients are initially diagnosed with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), corresponding to a population of more than 400,000. According to the severity, NMIBC can be divided into carcinoma in situ (CIS) that only exists on the surface of the bladder, non-invasive papillary carcinoma (Ta), and tumors that invade the lamina propria (T1). Fortunately, bladder cancer has obvious early symptoms, which facilitates early detection and early treatment. In the past few decades, the standard treatment for NMIBC has been transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURBT) plus postoperative adjuvant intravesical instillation of BCG. Unfortunately, ...
The performance of the leading player ResMed fully reflects this point. In fiscal year 2024, ResMed’s equipment revenue alone reached US$2.444 billion. As another example of the “razor + blade” model, the revenue brought by home ventilators is not limited to equipment. In fiscal year 2024, in addition to equipment, ResMed’s consumables revenue reached US$1.657 billion, a year-on-year increase of 14%, which is much higher than the equipment; and ResMed also opened up the space for the SAAS business model, with revenue reaching US$584 million, a year-on-year increase of 17%. Under the three-wheel drive model of equipment, consumables, and software, ResMed’s total revenue in fiscal year 2024 reached US$4.685 billion and its net profit reached US$1.021 billion. In the huge medical equipment industry, such a scale is not considered the top, but it must not be ignored in the subdivided field. The outstanding performance of the leader naturally attracted the ...

On October 16th, Wave Life Sciences released positive mechanistic evidence data from the Ib/IIa RestorAATion-2 study of RNA editing therapy WVE-006 for the treatment of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD). This is the first RNA editing therapy to release clinical data. AATD is a genetic disease caused by mutations in the SERPINA1 gene, which encodes alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT), the most abundant protease inhibitor in human serum. Patients with homozygous protease inhibitor gene mutation type (Pi * ZZ) AATD are unable to naturally produce wild-type alpha-1 antitrypsin (M-AAT) protein. Therefore, after receiving WVE-006 treatment, patients can produce M-AAT protein in their bodies, which confirms the successful editing of mutant Z-AAT mRNA. In addition, restoring 50% of M-AAT levels will be consistent with the heterozygous “MZ” genotype, resulting in a lower risk of AATD lung disease and liver disease. The data released this time comes from the 200mg single dose cohort of RestorAATion-2 ...
The new data released on Thursday at IDWeek provides a clearer picture of Abrysvo’s performance in preventing severe illness and hospitalization. The results came from Kaiser Permanente in Southern California, although the trial was funded by Pfizer and included co authors from Pfizer. This retrospective study observed patients aged 60 and above who were hospitalized or visited the emergency room due to severe acute respiratory disease. In this group, the effectiveness of the vaccine in preventing the most severe respiratory cases was 90%, with only one positive case found among patients who received the Abrysvo vaccine. The confidence interval is wide, ranging from 24% to 99% in preliminary analysis. Although the results were not significantly different from those shown by the company in previous trials, this study is the first to review individuals with compromised immune function as they were not included in the Phase 3 study. Despite the introduction ...
Beijing, China – October 21, 2024- BeiGene Limited (NASDAQ: BGNE; Hong Kong Stock Exchange code: 06160; Shanghai Stock Exchange code: 688235), a global cancer treatment innovation company, announced today that its PD-1 inhibitor BeiGene An ® Teralizumab has been officially approved by the China National Medical Products Administration (hereinafter referred to as “NMPA”) for use in combination with platinum based chemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy, and continues to be used as monotherapy for resectable stage II or IIIA non-small cell lung cancer patients after surgery. As the first PD-1 drug approved for neoadjuvant and adjuvant immunotherapy of stage II-III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in China, Trastuzumab provides a new option for perioperative treatment of operable lung cancer patients, helping them achieve longer survival benefits. This approval is based on clinical trial data of RATIONALE 315 (NCT04379635). This study is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind phase 3 study evaluating the efficacy ...

This number really shocked the Chinese people. Are there really so many? You know, the number of diabetes patients in China in 2023 will reach 141 million, with an incidence rate of 12.8%. The number of diabetes patients in China ranks first in the world! In recent years, diabetes has become younger in China. According to a report in 2020, the prevalence of diabetes among residents aged 18 and above in China has reached 11.9%. This set of data once again sounded the alarm for the health of the Chinese people! You should know that diabetes is a chronic disease, and its typical symptoms are “three more and one less”. “Three more” means drinking more, eating more, and urinating more; “one less” mainly refers to weight ...
Recently, Abbott announced its latest progress in electrophysiology pulsed field ablation (PFA). Specifically, the global IDE registration of the Volt™ PFA system was completed ahead of schedule; the tactical flex™ Duo ablation catheter Sensor Enabled™ is undergoing the global FOCALFLEX trial; the Advisor™ HD Grid X mapping catheter Sensor Enabled™ has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration and has begun commercial release. According to Abbott’s official website, the above two catheters are being developed as important tools for doctors to treat patients with abnormal heart rhythms such as atrial fibrillation (AFib). Among them, the mapping catheter will further support the mapping of PFA and radiofrequency ablation cases, and the visualization of cardiac anatomy is crucial for patients undergoing ablation surgery to achieve the best results. It is reported that the enrollment of the US VOLT-AF IDE study was completed 4 months ahead of schedule, and nearly 400 ...
