Novo Nordisk has announced that the European Medicine Agency’s advisory committee has recommended Awiqli (once-weekly basal insulin icodec) to treat diabetes in adults. The recommendation from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) was based on positive results from the phase 3a ONWARDS clinical trial programme. Estimated to affect 415 million people worldwide, diabetes is a chronic disease that occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, a hormone that regulates glucose, or when the body cannot effectively use the insulin it produces. Awiqli works to cover the basal insulin requirements for a week with a single subcutaneous injection. Comprising six phase 3a global clinical trials involving more than 4,000 adults with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, the ONWARDS clinical development programme investigated the efficacy and safety of Awiqli. Results from the programme showed that Awiqli achieved a superior blood sugar reduction and superior time in ...
Interstitial fluid has many similarities with blood, and its secrets are still being uncovered. A microneedle offers a minimally invasive method to sample this fluid directly under the skin. This tool allows for real-time and continuous monitoring of biomarkers circulating in the body. Despite their small size, just two to three times the width of a human hair and around a millimeter in length, microneedles can make a significant difference in early infection diagnosis and personal health monitoring. Now, researchers have developed improved microneedle technology that enhances the extraction of interstitial fluid by collecting more sample quantities in less time. Sandia National Laboratories (Albuquerque, NM, USA) is leading the way in microneedle research through collaboration with different partners to enhance this technology. Sandia has achieved a breakthrough in interstitial extraction, moving from using multiple needle arrays to a single microneedle technique that collects enough fluid for analysis in just about ...
On March 15, 2024, BeiGene announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved tislelizumab (Chinese trade name: BAIZEAN®; English trade name: TEVIMBRA®) as mono-therapy to treat adult patients with unresectable or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after prior systemic chemotherapy (without PD-1/L1 inhibitors). Tislelizumab is expected to be available in the United States in the second half of 2024. The approval was based on results from the RATIONALE 302 trial, which met its primary endpoint in the intention-to-treat (ITT) population. Tislelizumab demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful survival benefit compared with chemotherapy. In the ITT population, median overall survival (OS) was 8.6 months (95% CI: 7.5, 10.4) in the tislelizumab group compared with 6.3 months (95% CI: 5.3, 7.0) in the chemotherapy group (p=0.0001; hazard ratio [HR]=0.70 [95% CI: 0.57, 0.85]). The safety profile of tislelizumab is superior to that of chemotherapy. The most common ...
Pancreatic cancer ranks as the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths, primarily due to its late detection. Early discovery of the disease, while it’s still treatable, could significantly impact survival rates. For more than a century, scientists have sought to link cancer with cellular energy production and metabolism. The advent of quantitative mass spectrometry has enabled the testing of many such theories. Now, for the first time, researchers have utilized targeted mass spectrometry to demonstrate that pancreatic cancer stems from changes in cellular metabolism that are detectable using a simple blood test. This method could lead to more precise and earlier diagnoses of pancreatic cancer than currently possible with tumor markers or imaging techniques, potentially paving the way for more timely and appropriate therapeutic interventions. In contrast to genomic approaches that measure DNA for early detection and often struggle with false positives and negatives, mass spectrometry can measure extremely low ...
Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is providing an at-a-glance summary of news from around the agency: Today, the FDA announced its final decision to withdraw approval of Pepaxto (melphalan flufenamide), which was approved for use in combination with dexamethasone to treat certain patients with multiple myeloma. The agency determined the following grounds for withdrawal were met: (1) the confirmatory study conducted as a condition of accelerated approval did not confirm Pepaxto’s clinical benefit, and (2) the available evidence demonstrates that Pepaxto is not shown to be safe or effective under its conditions of use. The final decision was issued by the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research Director Peter Marks, M.D., Ph.D., as the Commissioner’s designee. The decision is effective immediately. The FDA plans to publish a Federal Register notice announcing the availability of today’s decision and remove Pepaxto from the Orange Book. It is the FDA’s ...
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide, with over 2.3 million new cases and approximately 685,000 deaths reported in 2020. Currently, mammography, ultrasound, MRI, and biopsies are the primary methods for diagnosing breast cancer. Despite their effectiveness, these techniques have several drawbacks, such as high costs, limited accessibility, potential inaccuracies in early detection in young women with dense breast tissue, invasiveness, and radiation exposure risks, especially for radiation-sensitive patients. Given the increasing prevalence of breast cancer in women, there is an urgent need for more innovative and efficient detection methods. Now, a saliva test that screens for breast cancer is showing promising results in experimental testing. Developed collaboratively by researchers from the University of Florida (Gainesville, FL, USA) and National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (Hsinchu City, Taiwan), this innovative hand-held device can detect breast cancer biomarkers using just a small saliva sample. The device operates by applying ...
In a recent study published in the journal BMJ Open, researchers explored the relationship between kimchi consumption and obesity in South Korea. Obesity is associated with nutritional, environmental, and lifestyle factors and is a significant risk factor for diabetes, chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, and hyperlipidemia. Obesity prevalence in South Korea has increased steadily over the years. Meanwhile, the prevalence of abdominal obesity has also increased over time. Increased obesity prevalence is associated with higher medical expenditure; thus, obesity prevention remains a public health priority. In Korea, kimchi is a traditional side dish low in calories but rich in vitamins, dietary fiber, polyphenols, and lactic acid bacteria. There are concerns about kimchi as one of the major contributors to sodium intake. A 2019-20 survey revealed that daily sodium intake from kimchi was 500 mg (15% of total sodium intake). Studies have shown associations between increased sodium intake and a greater ...

On January 16, China Biopharmaceutical announced that the Group has initiated a Phase III clinical study of Semaglutide Injection in China for the indication of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Semaglutide is a long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analog with 94% sequence homology to human GLP-1, a peptide secreted by small intestinal L-cells, which is known for its ability to increase insulin synthesis and secretion, inhibit appetite, and delay gastric emptying. Semaglutide reduces blood glucose by stimulating insulin secretion and decreasing glucagon secretion. Semaglutide is the first weekly GLP-1 formulation in China with both hypoglycemic and cardiovascular indications, and its effects in lowering blood glucose, reducing body weight, and cardiovascular protection in diabetes have been well proven. Compared with the previous generation of glucose-lowering drugs, Semaglutide’s outstanding advantage is its longer half-life, which allows it to be administered once a week, greatly improving patient compliance. Currently, Semaglutide has become one of the ...
