AstraZeneca’s Icosavax M&A Deal Helps It Stand Out in Multivalent Vaccines Chase

AstraZeneca is acquiring Icosavax, which has technology well-suited for multivalent vaccines. Icosavax’s pipeline includes a Phase 3-ready program that protects against two pathogens that cause severe respiratory infections in older adults. By FRANK VINLUAN AstraZeneca is already in the respiratory syncytial virus market with two products, including the drug Beyfortus, approved earlier this year. An M&A deal will give AstraZeneca an RSV vaccine candidate based on technology that could help the company compete where new vaccines are going. AstraZeneca is acquiring clinical-stage Icosavax for $800 million up front, the pharmaceutical giant announced Tuesday. Under the deal terms, AstraZeneca will pay $15 for each Icosavax share, which is a nearly 43% premium to the stock’s closing price on Monday. AstraZeneca could pay an additional $5 per share depending on the progress of Icosavax’s vaccine candidates. That payout could bring the value of the deal to $1.1 billion. The vaccines of Seattle-based ...

Automated Device for Non-Invasive Measurement of Cells’ Electrical Properties to Advance Cancer Diagnosis

Effective monitoring of cancer cells is crucial for physicians in guiding treatment and managing the disease, potentially reducing cancer-related mortality. Non-invasive diagnostic platforms that measure the electrical properties of cancer cells show promise for early detection of drug resistance and metastasis in cancer. Earlier studies have found that the type of cancer and its drug resistance status can be understood from cellular permittivity and conductivity data. As a result, there is a growing need for analytical methods that can quickly measure these electrical properties of cells. Electrorotation (ROT) is one method that can capture these cellular properties by analyzing permittivity and conductivity based on how a cell moves in an electric field. This method characterizes cell types and states by profiling their frequency-dependent rotational movement under a modulated electric field. However, traditional ROT methods have limitations, primarily the cumbersome process of capturing, measuring, and replacing cells, which reduces the throughput ...

HPV DNA Test Using Lymphatic Fluid Collected After Surgery Could Predict Risk of Cancer Recurrence

Head and neck cancer, previously linked to heavy drinking and smoking, has seen a significant shift due to human papillomavirus (HPV). In fact, HPV-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) has become the most prevalent HPV-related cancer, surpassing cervical cancer, with increasing cases globally. Despite treatments, up to 30% of head and neck cancer patients face recurrences, often due to elusive cancer cells that treatments miss. Recently, the focus has shifted to liquid biopsy for detecting cancer recurrences post-treatment. Liquid biopsies search for cancer indicators in body fluids like blood and urine. Now, a new study has found that liquid biopsy of lymphatic fluid, which is commonly thrown away post-surgery, could be key in tailoring treatments for HPV-driven head and neck cancer. The groundbreaking study by researchers at University of Pittsburgh (Pittsburgh, PA, USA) and Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis (WUSTL, St. Louis, MO, USA) revealed that HPV ...

CanSino Biologics completed the first subject enrollment in Phase I clinical trial of its component diphtheria-tetanus and pertussis combined vaccine for adolescents and adults

Recently, CanSino Biologics’ adsorbed acellular (component) diphtheria-tetanus combination vaccine (hereinafter referred to as “Tdcp for adolescents and adults”) officially launched Phase I clinical trials and completed the enrollment of the first subject. Tdcp for adolescents and adults is suitable for people aged 6 years and above. It is a booster vaccine for adolescents and adults. This randomized, blinded, controlled phase I clinical trial will initially evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the vaccine. Whooping cough, diphtheria and tetanus, also known as diphtheria, are serious diseases caused by bacteria. Since the protective effect of immunity triggered by the main antigen of pertussis gradually decreases after vaccination, the incidence and mortality of pertussis gradually increase in the post-vaccination population. The domestic market is in urgent need of a DPT vaccine with longer-lasting immune protection and higher safety. Major developed countries have included this vaccine in their regular vaccination plans, but there is ...

National Resilience lines up 440 new jobs at former AstraZeneca plant in Ohio

After multiple expansion forays overseas this year, biomanufacturing outfit National Resilience is returning to its American roots with plans to beef up production and add hundreds of new jobs at a recently purchased plant in Ohio. Resilience is expanding operations at the West Chester, Ohio, facility it bought from AstraZeneca in January, the technology-focused contract manufacturer said Monday. In turn, the company expects to create some 440 new jobs with an associated annual payroll of nearly $29 million over the next three years. The project represents a partnership between Resilience, JobsOhio and Cincinnati’s Regional Economic Development Initiative (REDI), the company noted. All told, the plan is set to nearly double Resilience’s current presence in West Chester, according to JobsOhio president and CEO J.P. Nauseef. In the company’s press release, Resilience’s CEO Rahul Singhvi pointed out that the West Chester site serves as the CDMO’s global center of excellence for commercial ...

Genentech elevates interim CEO Ashley Magargee to full-time leadership position

Genentech’s brief leadership interregnum is coming to an end as the company’s interim chief executive, Ashley Magargee, prepares to take a permanent place on the throne. Magargee, who was tapped to temporarily steer the Roche subsidiary in November, will don the mantle of full-time CEO on Jan. 1, 2024, Genentech said Tuesday. Magargee, who most recently headed up Genentech’s commercial portfolio in addition to her interim CEO duties, is taking the place of Alexander Hardy. Hardy hit the exit back in November and now serves as CEO of BioMarin. Having served at Genentech since 2004, Magargee is no stranger to the South San Francisco-based drugmaker. In terms of her leadership pedigree, Magargee has operated in senior management positions at both Roche and Genentech across life cycle management, digital customer experience and market access, Genentech said in a release. Genentech and its Swiss parent Roche have been locked in a complicated ...

Abecma’s survival data show why FDA wanted expert meeting on the Bristol Myers cell therapy

Last month, Bristol Myers Squibb made the surprise announcement that the FDA will convene an advisory committee meeting to discuss the company’s bid to move the CAR-T therapy Abecma into earlier lines of treatment. Now, we know at least one reason why the FDA wants more opinions on the application. Abecma showed no advantage in extending patients’ lives compared with standard combination regimens when used in multiple myeloma patients after two to four prior lines of therapy, according to an updated interim analysis of the phase 3 KarMMa-3 trial presented at the 65th American Society of Hematology annual meeting. The statistical analysis revealed a negligible 1% increased risk of death for Abecma. But median overall survival looks better for Abecma, as patients lived a median of 41.4 months versus 37.9 months for control. The lack of an overall survival showing came in stark contrast to the 51% reduction in the ...
