The Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has adopted a positive opinion recommending the approval of Marinus Pharmaceuticals’ ZTALMY (ganaxolone) oral suspension.

Right before opening arguments were set to begin in Gilead Sciences and Teva’s HIV antitrust trial, the two came to a last-minute settlement with some of the plaintiff groups. Both companies settled with the pharmacy plaintiffs, a group that includes CVS Pharmacy, Rite Aid and Walgreens, while Gilead made a deal with the direct purchasers. Now, indirect purchasers and others involved in the suit can take their claims to a California federal jury. Gilead and Teva confirmed the settlements, and Gilead noted that the lawsuit with the other parties is ongoing. “The claims against Gilead in this lawsuit lack merit, do not accurately reflect antitrust laws, and ignore Gilead’s history of innovation and scientific advancements to help address the pressing challenges of the HIV epidemic,” a Gilead spokesperson said over email. The deals mark an eleventh hour end to a sprawling case that dates back to 2019, when plaintiffs including ...

Over 37 million Americans have diabetes, and 90-95% of that population are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Lifestyle interventions, such as a healthy diet and a regular physical activity program, are methods to manage diabetes. A new study from a collaboration of investigators at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, a founding member of the Mass General Brigham healthcare system, and Joslin Diabetes Center, part of Beth Israel Lahey Health, uses data from the Look AHEAD (Action for Health in Diabetes) study, a randomized controlled trial that compared an intensive lifestyle intervention with diabetes support and education in patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and overweight or obesity to track the development of cardiovascular disease over time. In the current study, the research team assessed whether physical activity at certain times of day was associated with greater improvement in blood glucose control. Their findings suggest patients with type 2 diabetes who were ...
ONWARD Medical N.V., the medical technology company creating innovative spinal cord stimulation therapies to restore movement, function, and independence in people with spinal cord injury (SCI), today announces a publication in Nature showing that a wireless brain-computer interface (BCI) can use thought to modulate ARC Therapy. Researchers reported that when paired with ARC Therapy, an implanted BCI allowed an individual to gain augmented control over when and how he moved his paralyzed legs. Dave Marver (CEO of ONWARD) said, “This publication shows the remarkable potential of ARC Therapy to be enhanced with the introduction of a BCI, facilitating more natural movement based on the thoughts of a person living with paralysis. We have positioned ONWARD as a leader in the BCI field with our unique understanding of spinal cord stimulation for people with SCI.” As a neuroscientist and professor, EPFL, and Co-author of the Nature Paper, Grégoire Courtine said, “The ...
States with restrictive gun laws have lower rates of assault-related firearm deaths among youths, but youths from socially vulnerable communities are disproportionately impacted across the spectrum of state gun laws, according to a study published online May 24 in JAMA Network Open. Eustina G. Kwon, M.D., M.P.H., from Seattle Children’s Hospital, and colleagues assessed the rate of death due to assault-related firearm injury by community-level social vulnerability and state-level gun laws. The Gun Violence Archive was used to identify all 5,813 assault-related firearm deaths among U.S. youths (aged 10 to 19 years) between Jan. 1, 2020, and June 30, 2022. The researchers found that the death rate in the low social vulnerability index (SVI) cohort was 1.2 per 100,000 person-years versus 2.5 in the moderate SVI cohort, 5.2 in the high SVI cohort, and 13.3 in the very high SVI cohort. Comparing the very high to the low SVI cohort, ...
