BioCentury’s third annual analysis of pharma company deals finds that bispecifics and degraders are in, cell and gene therapies are out, and China is bringing much more than me-too assets to cross-border deals. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s analysts assess a year’s worth of deals between pharmas and biotechs to tease out emerging trends.
The analysts also discuss last week’s FDA approval of a vector-based immunotherapy from Precigen to treat a rare respiratory disease and whether the decision will set a precedent of more flexibility for rare disease therapies. They then take stock of recent translational coverage in BioCentury, including a report by Denali of a way to avoid a key safety issue of anti-amyloid-targeting mAbs.
BioCentury’s Grand Rounds — Europe will take place in Cambridge, U.K., Sept. 17-19. The conference seeks to bridge academia, industry and investors for breakthrough innovation.
