  • Snippet Roundup: CETP Kaput and Biogen Buys Into Amyloid
    October 27, 2017 Snippet roundup: CETP kaput and Biogen buys into amyloid Edwin Elmhirst Welcome to your weekly roundup of EP Vantage’s snippets – short takes on smaller news items. This week, October 23 to 27, 2017, we had thoughts on the following: Amgen puts another CETP out of its misery; Stryker buys Vexim without waiting for US approval; How much is aducanumab worth? At least $8bn, Biogen reckons; Alcon delay puts dampener on Novartis; Soliris sitting pretty with complementary new indication; Smith & Nephew acquires, but divestments could follow; Global Blood drops IPF programme. These snippets were previously published daily via twitter. Amgen puts another CETP out of its misery October 26, 2017 If the once-promising CETP drug class lives on, it might only be in a rather restricted group of heart disease patients with a very specific mutation. Amgen became the last big biopharma group to cancel work on a drug in the HDL-raising class when it announced plans to seek a partner for AMG 899, following the lead of Merck & Co, which recently terminated its work with anacetrapib after disappointing results in the Reveal trial. Although big pharma groups obviously believe that it is unlikely for a CETP inhibitor to succeed commercially, it is not out of the realm of possibility that a partner could emerge for AMG 899 – Roche licensed its project, dalcetrapib, to the Canadian group Dalcor Pharmaceuticals, which has been researching its use in a genetic subtype, patients with an AA polymorphism at the rs1967309 location in the ADCY9 gene. Amgen will write off the $300m it paid for AMG 899’s originator, Dezima Pharma, in 2015, which at the time was seen as a cheap bet on the CETP sector.

  • Statements Contained in This Release As the Result of New Information Or Future Events Or Developments
    Pfizer and BioNTech Provide Update on Booster Program in Light of the Delta-Variant NEW YORK and MAINZ, GERMANY, July 8, 2021 — As part of Pfizer’s and BioNTech’s continued efforts to stay ahead of the virus causing COVID-19 and circulating mutations, the companies are providing an update on their comprehensive booster strategy. Pfizer and BioNTech have seen encouraging data in the ongoing booster trial of a third dose of the current BNT162b2 vaccine. Initial data from the study demonstrate that a booster dose given 6 months after the second dose has a consistent tolerability profile while eliciting high neutralization titers against the wild type and the Beta variant, which are 5 to 10 times higher than after two primary doses. The companies expect to publish more definitive data soon as well as in a peer-reviewed journal and plan to submit the data to the FDA, EMA and other regulatory authorities in the coming weeks. In addition, data from a recent Nature paper demonstrate that immune sera obtained shortly after dose 2 of the primary two dose series of BNT162b2 have strong neutralization titers against the Delta variant (B.1.617.2 lineage) in laboratory tests. The companies anticipate that a third dose will boost those antibody titers even higher, similar to how the third dose performs for the Beta variant (B.1.351). Pfizer and BioNTech are conducting preclinical and clinical tests to confirm this hypothesis. While Pfizer and BioNTech believe a third dose of BNT162b2 has the potential to preserve the highest levels of protective efficacy against all currently known variants including Delta, the companies are remaining vigilant and are developing an updated version of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine that targets the full spike protein of the Delta variant.

  • Johnson & Johnson and Pfizer Inc., Analysis of Agreement Containing
    ANALYSIS OF AGREEMENT CONTAINING CONSENT ORDERS TO AID PUBLIC COMMENT In the Matter of Johnson & Johnson and Pfizer Inc. File No. 061-0220, Docket No. C-4180 I. Introduction The Federal Trade Commission (“Commission”) has accepted, subject to final approval, an Agreement Containing Consent Orders (“Consent Agreement”) from Johnson & Johnson (“J&J”) and Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”), which is designed to remedy the anticompetitive effects that would otherwise result from J&J’s proposed acquisition of Pfizer Consumer Healthcare. Under the terms of the proposed Consent Agreement, the parties will be required to divest: (1) Pfizer’s Zantac® H-2 blocker business; (2) Pfizer’s Cortizone® hydrocortisone anti-itch business; (3) Pfizer’s Unisom® nighttime sleep-aid business; and (4) J&J’s Balmex® diaper rash treatment business. The proposed Consent Agreement has been placed on the public record for thirty (30) days for receipt of comments by interested persons. Comments received during this period will become part of the public record. After thirty (30) days, the Commission will again review the proposed Consent Agreement and will decide whether it should withdraw from the proposed Consent Agreement, modify it, or make final the Decision and Order (“Order”). Pursuant to a Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement dated June 25, 2006, J&J proposes to acquire certain voting securities and assets comprising Pfizer’s Consumer Healthcare business in a transaction valued at approximately $16.6 billion (“Proposed Acquisition”). The Commission’s complaint alleges that the Proposed Acquisition, if consummated, would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C.
