Ep. 193 - East-West CAR T Deals, Plus: Amgen-FTC

Constructing deal terms to take advantage of both the translational research benefits in China and the market opportunity in the U.S. is slowly emerging as a strategy to advance CAR T cell innovation. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s editors discuss how deals for the technology have evolved since the 2017 partnership between Legend and Janssen for Carvykti and the opportunity for East-West collaborations to drive CAR T cell development.BioCentury’s editors also assess why the FTC made a deal with Amgen that will allow the company’s $27.8 billion acquisition of Horizon Therapeutics to proceed, and how an agreement by Regeneron on international pricing of a COVID-19 mAb could clear the path to confirmation of Monica Bertagnolli as the next NIH director.Reach us by sending a text
