Sanofi Reports Strong Quarterly Earnings, Driven by Success of Key Products

Sanofi, the French multinational pharmaceutical company, has reported strong quarterly earnings for the fourth quarter of 2022, driven by the success of several key products. The company’s performance beat analysts’ profit forecast, and shares rose in response to the news. Sanofi’s revenue for the quarter was €10.2 billion, up 6.7% from the same period the previous year. Net income was €1.3 billion, an increase of 28.6% compared to the same quarter in 2021. The strong results were driven by the success of several of the company’s products, including Dupixent, Aubagio, and Lantus. Dupixent, a treatment for atopic dermatitis and asthma, was a particular standout, with sales of €1.3 billion in the quarter, up 42.9% from the same period in 2021. The drug has been a major growth driver for Sanofi, with sales expected to reach €10 billion by 2025. Aubagio, a treatment for multiple sclerosis, also performed ...

Sanofi to cut US insulin prices by up to 78% in January 2024

Sanofi has said it will cut the US list price of its most widely prescribed insulin by 78%, following similar moves by Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly earlier this month. The changes will come into effect in January 2024 and will also include a $35 price cap on the same insulin, Lantus (insulin glargine injection), for those with commercial insurance. Around 8.4 million of the 37 million people in the US with diabetes use insulin, but the rising cost of the lifesaving medicine has been a pressing concern for many patients. Sanofi, Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly produce over 90% of the US insulin supply and have come under recent fire over the rising costs of their products. In January, California attorney general Rob Bonta filed a lawsuit against the three drugmakers and leading pharmacy benefit managers for allegedly using their market power to overcharge patients for insulin. Other states ...

The high price of Ozempic is pushing many to unregulated, copycat drugs for weight loss

Some compounding pharmacies are offering what they say are generic versions of the drugs, which have soared in popularity for weight loss. When Robin Langois, 58, was prescribed the weight-loss drug Wegovy last year, she couldn’t afford the high price tag after her insurance wouldn’t cover it. But she later discovered on TikTok that people could get their hands on what appeared to be the drug’s active ingredient, semaglutide, from compounding pharmacies for a fraction of the price. Langois, of Tucson, Arizona, said she was initially hesitant, because of safety concerns, but she eventually found a telehealth provider to write her a prescription. “I’m not 100% sure it’s what I’m getting,” Langois said. She noted, however, that she’s experienced feelings of fullness and weight loss, as well as nausea, a common side effect of the drug. “It’s working like it should,” she said. Either due to cost or ongoing shortages, ...

Frontline charities sign open letter backing COVID-19 vaccination drive

A partnership of frontline health charities has signed an open letter encouraging people with underlying conditions to book in for a COVID-19 vaccine. The charities, including Mencap, Diabetes UK and Lupus UK, have urged people with conditions including cancer, diabetes and heart disease to protect themselves and others around them from the coronavirus by receiving a vaccine. Although over half of those in this priority group – known as cohort six – have already received their first vaccine dose, the charities’ letter is ‘hoped’ to further increase take-up among this group. Cohort six includes individuals aged 16 to 64 years old who have certain long-term conditions, identified by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI), that puts them at a higher clinical risk from COVID-19. It also includes carers who are eligible for a carer’s allowance, as well as those who are the sole or primary carer of an ...

Moderna’s Phase 3 COVE study for its COVID-19 vaccine

30 November 2020 The Phase 3 COVE trial is a randomized, 1:1 placebo-controlled study testing mRNA-1273 at the 100 µg dose level in 30,000 participants in the U.S., ages 18 and older. The primary endpoint is the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19 disease. Key secondary endpoints include prevention of severe COVID-19 disease and prevention of infection by SARS-CoV-2. The trial will continue to accrue additional data relevant to safety and efficacy even after an EUA is submitted. The final estimates of vaccine efficacy for both primary and secondary endpoints will depend on the totality of data that will accumulate to inform the final analysis. Moderna worked closely with BARDA and the NIH, including NIAID’s COVID-19 Prevention Network (CoVPN), to conduct the Phase 3 COVE study under Operation Warp Speed. Moderna’s partner PPD (Nasdaq: PPD), a leading global contract research organization providing comprehensive, integrated drug development, laboratory and lifecycle management services, has ...

Severe COVID-19 linked to age, body mass index and ABO blood group

With the COVID-19 pandemic caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infecting over 50 million people worldwide with hundreds of thousands experiencing severe respiratory illness, researchers have been trying to find the factors associated with severe disease. From the start of the pandemic in March this year, several studies have indicated heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, etc. could be linked to severe disease. Now German researchers have published a study on the association between severe respiratory infection caused by SARS CoV-2 and factors such as age, body mass index (BMI) and ABO blood group. Their study titled, “Severity of Respiratory Infections due to SARS-CoV-2 in Working Population: Age and Body Mass Index Outweigh ABO Blood Group,” was released prior to peer review on the preprint site medRxiv*. Background There is a rise in cases of COVID-19, and there is a lack of consensus regarding the high-risk ...
