  • Ep. 265 - RFK Jr. & HHS, Blenrep's Comeback, China Deals
    Giving RFK Jr. control of HHS would be disastrous, argues Washington Editor Steve Usdin on the latest BioCentury This Week podcast. Expanding on his Editor’s Commentary, Usdin explains why Kennedy would be an unmitigated disaster for FDA, NIH and CMS, for biopharmas and for patients. He calls on biopharma leaders to speak out and affirm basic truths, even if it puts them in harm’s way.BioCentury’s editors also discuss why new data for GSK's Blenrep — an oncology therapy withdrawn two years ago — help make the case for introducing new therapies earlier in the course of treatment, and the recent bolus of West-East deals, including two around anti-PD-(L)1 x VEGF bispecifics: BioNTech's acquisition of Biotheus, and Merck's licensing of global rights to a LaNova asset.View full story: https://www.biocentury.com/article/65423300:00 - Introduction01:12 - RFK Jr. & HHS13:15 - Blenrep's Comback19:25 - China DealsTo submit a question to BioCentury’s editors, email the BioCentury This Week team at [email protected] us by sending a text

  • Ep. 263 - Alzheimer Insights: Anti-Amyloid Safety & Tau Teaser
    It’s too soon to conclude anti-amyloid therapies are safe for use by Alzheimer’s patients in the real world, even as early reports are encouraging, argues BioCentury Executive Editor Selina Koch on the latest BioCentury This Week podcast. Koch and colleagues discuss takeaways from this year’s Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s Disease annual meeting, including conclusions from adverse event data for Leqembi lecanemab and what the true test of appropriate use and safety for the drug might look like.BioCentury’s editors also assess Phase II data presented at CTAD by UCB that provide some of the first clues about what species of tau to target and in which patients. And they discuss what results of Tuesday’s presidential contest in the U.S. will mean for FDA, as well as the state of play for China biotech as the industry continues to grind out its first bear market.View full story: https://www.biocentury.com/article/65407500:00 - Introduction01:23 - CTAD: Anti-amyloids14:22 - CTAD: UCB's tau data19:47 - FDA & the Election28:16 - China Summit DebriefTo submit a question to BioCentury’s editors, email the BioCentury This Week team at [email protected] us by sending a text
