Clinical research featured strongly in terms of news last week. First, US pharma giant Pfizer released positive Phase III trial results for its hemophilia candidate marstacimab. Then, French drugmaker Sanofi last Tuesday announced encouraging mid-stage results for its multiple sclerosis candidate frexalimab. Also, RNA-targeted drug developer Ionis Pharmaceuticals released new data on its hereditary angioedema (HAE) candidate donidalorsen.
