BioCentury This Week

Ep. 233 - ASCO Preview, Rare Diseases & Biogen M&A


Listen Later

A theme among late-breaker presentations at this year’s American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting is the push by companies to move targeted therapies into earlier lines of treatment. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s editors discuss what they’re watching for in ASCO’s headline presentations and deliver highlights from abstracts released late last week as the oncology meeting readies to kick off on Friday. The editors also discuss the interest by FDA’s Janet Woodcock in a new approval pathway for ultrarare therapies, the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health’s initiative to support development of therapies and diagnostics for ALS, and Biogen's $1B+ acquisition of HI-Bio. This week’s podcast is sponsored by Nxera Pharma.
