A new report from the Access to Medicine Foundation calls for urgent changes in research and development (R&D) to ensure new antibiotics and antifungals reach patients facing drug-resistant infections. The report examines five late-stage antimicrobial projects targeting severe drug-resistant pathogens, revealing that structured advance planning for access and stewardship is not yet standard among companies. Four out of five companies—GSK, Pfizer, Innoviva, and Venatorx—are conducting clinical trials involving children, aiming to improve access for paediatric patients. Despite these efforts, only five low- and middle-income countries (LMICs)—China, India, Mexico, South Africa, and Thailand—have concrete commitments for drug registration. Many of the remaining 108 LMICs with high burdens of targeted diseases lack such commitments. The report underscores the need for partnerships and licensing agreements to enhance access in LMICs. SMEs have pursued wider access through collaborations, like those with the Global Antibiotic Research and Development Partnership (GARDP). However, the report finds that ...
Whole genome and exome sequencing are increasingly available for clinical research, aiding in the detection of inherited genetic variants that may cause various diseases. The American College of Medical Genetics-Association for Molecular Pathology (ACMG-AMP) provides regularly updated guidelines to help clinicians assess whether germline variants are likely related to a patient’s disease. However, automated tools often struggle to stay current with these updates. A new tool has now been developed that allows researchers to annotate variant data from large-scale studies with clinically relevant classifications for risks of childhood cancer and other diseases, aligning older applications with the latest guidelines. This tool is freely available to the research community. Developed by a team including scientists from Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP, Philadelphia, PA, USA), the tool, named Automated Germline Variant Pathogenicity (AutoGVP), incorporates germline variant pathogenicity annotations from the ClinVar database and variant classifications from a modified version of InterVar. AutoGVP ...
To win the battle against rare diseases, drug developers must work hand-in-hand with patients. By Sharon KingMy colleagues and I were privileged earlier this year to meet with a caregiver and a young patient living with a rare form of pediatric cancer, who shared their stories and inspiring words of encouragement for the biopharmaceutical industry. Their message resonated with all who were there: Together we are working toward a world where every cure is possible. It’s a big vision. Every day, more than 400 million people around the world are battling a rare disease. Many of those people are facing a scarcity of treatment options, often limited to drug regimens that haven’t been updated in decades and that do little to cure the illness or even slow down the progression of symptoms. Patient communities have long known that working together is the key to making progress, and they have created ...

At present, the company has built instrument production workshops and reagent production workshops, which can produce 100 flow cytometers and 5 million diagnostic kits ...
The nanocage technology combines both mRNA and traditional virus-based vaccines to create virus-like efficacious vaccines A new technology developed by researchers from King’s College London (KCL) could provide a new way of delivering drugs to advance next-generation treatments to prevent and treat a variety of diseases. Published in the nanotechnology journal Small, the ‘plug and play’ technology could also lead to new therapeutics that act as both a vaccine and a drug, preventing disease and symptoms. For over two decades, a common protein called ferritin, which manages iron in all organisms, has been used to create vaccines and deliver anticancer drugs, as well as other medicines, to the body. Until now, scientists have been unable to develop a universal approach to delivering a wide range of medicines due to the protein’s unique method of self-assembly. “The inability to easily control the assembly of natural protein nanocages like ferritin has been ...
Currently the third most common cancer in the UK, lung cancer affects 40,000 people annually Researchers from the University of Liverpool and Queen Mary University of London have demonstrated further evidence of the benefits of lung cancer screening across socioeconomic groups in a new study published in Lancet Regional Health Europe. Funded by the National Institute for Health Research’s Health Technology Assessment programme, the new evidence published also illustrates the importance of screening for individuals who live in areas of economic deprivation. Affecting around 40,000 people every year in the UK, lung cancer is currently the third most common cancer in the country and the leading cause of cancer worldwide, accounting for an estimated 1.8 million deaths globally. In the study, researchers examined the long-term outcomes of recruited participants from across the socioeconomic spectrum to assess the impact of socioeconomic status on a variety of factors, including initial recruitment, selection ...
Rapid and accurate testing is crucial in the fight against Hepatitis C. Hepatitis C blood testing determines whether someone has been infected with the Hepatitis C virus. Having regular access to testing helps ensure the prompt identification of potential Hepatitis C infections and facilitates immediate linkage to care, thus helping to reduce further transmission. Now, the first one-minute Hepatitis C antibody test can prove to be an excellent tool in managing this disease. The INSTI HCV Antibody Test from bioLytical Laboratories (Richmond, BC, Canada) is the world’s first one-minute test that detects antibodies to the Hepatitis C virus, which are substances released into the bloodstream upon infection. The test includes procedural control for IgG and IgM and can identify HCV genotypes 1 through 6, delivering results in as little as 60 seconds. It is both highly accurate and affordable, designed for ease of use. This fully portable system does not ...
