The latest data cut for KRAS G12C inhibitor adagrasib from Mirati Therapeutics underwhelmed investors. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s editors discussed the readout, which came in an abstract ahead of this week’s American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting, and previewed some of ASCO’s most anticipated data, which will emerge in “late-breaker” presentations. The podcast team also explored the legal battle over IP related to CRISPR editing in bacterial cells, the latest on an investigation by CStone Pharmaceuticals into a derivative investment that broke company policy, the launch of the Advanced Research Project Agency for Health and the status of user fee negotiations in Congress. This week’s podcast is sponsored by MSD, whose London-based European Innovation Hub includes a business development and licensing team, clinical teams and its U.K. Discovery Research Centre.  For more information visit, msd.com/licensing.
