French pharma major Sanofi (Euronext: SAN) is to cut 466 jobs in France and Germany as part of a sharpening of its R&D focus.

Sanofi is to prioritize oncology, immunology, rare diseases disorders and vaccines and will implement a ‘more agile operating model’, the company told The Pharma Letter.

The changes will lead to a limiting of cardiovascular R&D, stopping at developing the current pipeline, and seeking to license clinical-stage programs from external partners.
