Roche's Phase IIb PADOVA study of prasinezumab in early-stage Parkinson's disease did not meet its primary endpoint of time to confirmed motor progression, though it showed promising trends in secondary endpoints, particularly in patients also treated with levodopa. The drug was well tolerated with no new safety concerns reported. Roche plans to present full results at an upcoming medical meeting, emphasizing the need for further exploration in the absence of disease-modifying treatments for Parkinson's.
Roche's Parkinson's drug, prasinezumab, has failed a Phase IIb trial, despite showing potential clinical efficacy in delaying motor progression. While the results indicated positive trends in secondary endpoints, they lacked statistical significance, prompting analysts to call the data "promising but leaves uncertainty." Roche plans to continue related studies and may consider a new trial to further explore the findings.
Roche and Prothena's Parkinson's antibody treatment, prasinezumab, failed to meet its primary endpoint in the phase 2b PADOVA study, although it showed a 16% delay in motor progression compared to placebo. The drug was well tolerated, and Roche plans to further evaluate the data and collaborate with health authorities on next steps. Parkinson's disease remains difficult to treat, with many therapies struggling to progress through clinical trials.
Roche's experimental Parkinson's drug, prasinezumab, failed to meet its primary goal in a mid-stage trial, not significantly delaying motor symptom progression in early-stage patients. Despite this setback, the drug showed potential clinical efficacy and positive trends in other trial objectives. Roche plans to further evaluate the data and collaborate with health authorities on next steps.
Roche has received approval from the European Medicines Agency for Vabysmo, a 6.0 mg single-dose prefilled syringe, to treat neovascular age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, and macular edema following retinal vein occlusion. This treatment addresses the needs of over nine million people in the EU, offering a more convenient administration method for ophthalmologists and potentially reducing the treatment burden for patients.
Roche has received EU approval for its Vabysmo prefilled syringe, targeting three retinal conditions that lead to blindness: wet age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular oedema, and macular oedema following retinal vein occlusion. This ready-to-use formulation complements the existing vial option and aims to challenge Regeneron's Eylea, which currently dominates the market. With Vabysmo's sales surging 324% to $2.64bn, forecasts suggest it could reach $8.78bn by 2030, while Eylea's sales are expected to decline significantly.
Roche plans to acquire Poseida Therapeutics for $1.5 billion, focusing on allogeneic CAR-T cell therapies, including the investigational dual CAR-T therapy P-CD19CD20-ALLO1, currently in phase 1 trials for B-cell malignancies. The acquisition aims to enhance development in oncology, immunology, and neurology, with potential applications for multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus. The deal is expected to close in Q1 2025.

Oh snap! Failed to reconnect with the server. This is typically caused by a longer network outage, or if the server has been taken down. You can try to reconnect, but if that does not work, you need to reload the page.
Oh man! The server rejected the attempt to reconnect. The only option now is to reload the page, but be prepared that it won't work, since this is typically caused by a failure on the server.
