Ep. 207 - Sickle Cell, AbbVie Deals, BIO CEO, March-in

from BioCentury This Week · host BioCentury

FDA’s decision to approve two gene therapies for sickle cell diseases could be transformative for patients, but both multimillion-dollar drugs will face access issues. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s editors discuss what’s next for the companies, and for patients, following the approvals. The editors also analyze how AbbVie is restocking its pipeline via M&A, including its second multibillion deal in a week, a takeout of Cerevel, and why the acquisition is important beyond the pharma’s own portfolio. And Washington Editor Steve Usdin assesses BIO’s decision to name John Crowley as its new CEO and why the Biden administration’s new march-in policy is likely to affect very few drugs. Reach us by sending a text
