Hengrui Biopharmaceutical’s JAK1 Inhibitor SHR0302 Approved for Clinical Use in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Recently, Hengrui Biopharmaceuticals received the Drug Clinical Trial Approval Notice issued by the National Medical Products Administration, granting approval for the company’s JAK1 inhibitor and innovative drug SHR0302 sustained-release tablets to conduct clinical trials for the indication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Currently, there is no globally approved medication targeting the same pathway for treating systemic lupus erythematosus. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease with a complex etiology involving various factors such as genetics, sex hormones, and environmental factors like viral and bacterial infections. The prevalence of SLE in China is estimated to be around 30-70 per 100,000, with an estimated affected population of approximately one million. SLE manifests with complex clinical presentations, affecting multiple organ systems, including joints, skin, kidneys, lungs, blood systems, nervous systems, and blood vessels, potentially leading to severe complications and even death. The situation of SLE in China is characterized by a ...

NHS trials home testing for chronic kidney disease

Tens of thousands of patients at risk of kidney disease will be able to get tested from the comfort of their own homes as part of a £30 million tech and AI innovation fund this winter. The Healthy.io early detection device will initially be sent to 30,000 patients who are considered most at risk for kidney disease. Analysis suggests the device could help detect 1,300 cases of undiagnosed chronic kidney disease (CKD) over the coming months, as well as stopping some patients from developing end-stage renal disease – improving outcomes for individuals and reducing pressure on the NHS by preventing unplanned hospital admissions. Patients place a small device in a urine sample before scanning the device into an app which gives immediate results on whether a patient may have a kidney condition. The test results are immediately uploaded to the patient’s electronic medical record for clinical review. The National CKD ...

GSK’s Jemperli Plus Zejula Produces Significant Survival Improvement in Endometrial Cancer

Pharmaceutical Executive Editorial Staff Jemperli plus standard-of-care chemotherapy with carboplatin and paclitaxel, followed by Jemperli plus Zejula as maintenance therapy produced a statistically significant and clinically meaningful benefit in progression-free survival in patients with primary advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. GSK’s Jemperli (dostarlimab) produced a significant improvement in survival among adults with primary advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer in a Phase III trial.1 Findings from the RUBY/ENGOT-EN6/GOG3031/NSGO trial show that Jemperli plus standard-of-care chemotherapy with carboplatin and paclitaxel, followed by Jemperli plus Zejula (niraparib) as maintenance therapy, achieved the primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS). The combination led to a statistically significant and clinically meaningful benefit across the overall patient population and among a subpopulation of patients with mismatch repair proficient/microsatellite stable (MMRp/MSS) tumors in those with primary advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. “Patients with MMRp/MSS primary advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer have few approved treatment options,” Hesham Abdullah, senior ...

HuidaGene Announces Rare Pediatric Drug Designation Granted to HG302, A Novel CRISPR DNA-editing Therapy, for the Treatment of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

SHANGHAI and CLINTON (NJ), December 19, 2023 – HuidaGene Therapeutics (辉大基因“HuidaGene”) today announced the U.S. FDA granted Rare Pediatric Drug Designation (RPDD) to HG302, a novel CRISPR-Cas12 DNA-editing therapy, to treat Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), affecting 1 in ~5,000 newborn boys. Unlike the in-vivo use of Cas9 system with limited genome-editing efficiency, high occurrence of off-targeting modifications, viral delivery packaging limitations, and complicated CRISPR-Cas9 patent dispute, HuidaGene identified novel Cas12i proteins using AI and deep machine-learning of DNA sequencing through the proprietary HG-PRECISE® platform to develop high-fidelity Cas12i variant (hfCas12Max®). This hfCas12Max® is smaller in size than Cas9, thereby packaging it using one viral vector with the lowest off-targeting activity and highest editing efficiency in mammalian cells when compared to SpCas9 and LbCas12a. Furthermore, Cas12i was granted a patent by USPTO with a cleaner commercial landscape. “This is Company’s third program receiving RPDD, suggesting the recognition of the importance of ...

The AI Tool that Matters Most for Clinical Care Isn’t ChatGPT

The excitement for artificial intelligence (AI) use cases in healthcare—especially those involving generative AI and ChatGPT—is palpable, with experts predicting generative AI could help unlock $1 trillion in healthcare savings. However the AI solution that holds the strongest potential to strengthen care outcomes and health equity isn’t the one healthcare leaders think of first. Instead, right-now value could come from extractive AI. It’s a tool that gives organizations the power to put even handwritten text sent via images or PDF by digital fax into a structured data play. It’s also a practical solution for advancing data interoperability without a heavy technology lift to include healthcare’s “digital have-nots,” like post-acute care facilities and health clinics. A powerful lever for improving health equity A healthcare organization’s ability to support total care, especially for our nation’s most vulnerable patient populations, depends on access to data that enables a 360-degree view of the patient’s ...
