  • EP Vantage Interview - Silence Hoping to Have Something to Shout About in 2009
    December 22, 2008 EP Vantage Interview - Silence hoping to have something to shout about in 2009 Lisa Urquhart With its first product expected to go into the clinic potentially as early as January, Silence Therapeutics is hoping that 2009 will be year it has something to shout about and one that will reverse the alarming share price decline that has seen the company’s valuation slip from a high of over £170m in June 2007 to £21.6m today. Silence is one of a growing number of companies working in RNA interference (RNAi) and particularly short interfering RNA (siRNA), which work by selectively silencing or inactivating genes related to certain diseases. It is importantly one of only two companies that have composition of matter patent protection for their siRNA drugs. Speaking to EP Vantage, Iain Ross, chief executive of Silence, says: “It’s a big year coming up for us.” The group has spent most of the last 12 months strengthening its IP position, and next year comes the important move of the group’s lead candidate Atu027 into the clinic, an event Mr Ross says should take place in the first quarter of the year. Many expect it could be as soon as the end of January. Partnering focus What is less expected is the speed at which Mr Ross intends to partner the drug, which is being developed in solid tumours, with an emphasis on lung cancer. “We would be looking at doing something either at the end of 2009 or the beginning of 2010,” he says. Key to partnering discussions will be the drug demonstrating good safety data in a number of cancer patients, which could be the catalyst to starting talks with big pharma who have already started to ask about Atu027.

  • IQVIA Pharma Deals Half-Year Review of 2020
    White Paper IQVIA Pharma Deals Half-Year Review of 2020 HEATHER CARTWRIGHT, Senior Analyst, Global Market Insights, IQVIA MICHELLE LIU, Analyst, Global Market Insights, IQVIA TASKIN AHMED, Manager, Global Market Insights, IQVIA Table of contents Introduction 1 Uncertainty and prudence cause M&A to stall 2 Licensing deal values continue to rise 5 Roche pips AstraZeneca to title of most active dealmaker 10 COVID-19 pandemic drives increase in R&D collaboration 11 Infectious diseases replace oncology as top therapeutic area for dealmaking 14 Outlook for H2 2020 15 About the authors 17 Introduction COVID-19 shakes up the dealmaking landscape H1 2020 was an unprecedented time for dealmaking in the life sciences sector. While the COVID-19 pandemic rapidly provoked a significant level of partnering activity amongst biopharma companies keen to expedite the development of vaccines or therapeutics to tackle the virus, it also acted as a brake on other types of dealmaking, most notably M&A which saw a sharp decline in activity as a result of uncertainty and operational disruption. Indeed, H1 2020 was notable for the absence of any US$5 B deals on the scale seen in previous years as companies instead focused their attentions on internal programs and potential COVID-19 solutions, opting only for a few asset-driven acquisitions. There was also plentiful capital available to allow biotech companies to stay independent, particularly those in the US. As a result, aggregate spending on M&A by life science companies plummeted to just US$19.1 B in the first 6 months of 2020.

The efficacy and safety of riluzole vs placebo as an adjunct to antidepressant medication in outpatients with major depressive disorder (MDD) was examined in a 3-site, 8-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, fixed-dose trial using a sequential parallel comparison design = comprised of two phases of 4 weeks. Patients with MDD in a current major depressive episode (N 104) with an inadequate response to either a prospective or a historical trial of an antidepressant medication were randomized in a 2 : 3 : 3 ratio to the treatment sequences of riluzole/riluzole, placebo/placebo, and placebo/riluzole, respectively. The primary outcome was change in depression severity, as assessed by the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS).
