By Barbara Obstoj-Cardwell. Editor
Last week, US biotech Sarepta Therapeutics impressed with early-stage data on SRP-9001, a gene therapy candidate for Duchenne muscular dystrophy under development with Roche. GlaxoSmithKline reported positive results from a Phase II trial of a plant-based COVID-19 vaccine being developed with Medicago. Ahead of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) meeting next month, Bristol Myers Squibb last Wednesday outlined its planned presentations, with a strong focus on its next-generation checkpoint blocker relatlimab, which has implications for Immutep. Also, Eli Lilly released new data on tirzepatide compared to insulin glargine in type 2 diabetes patients.
