Work is underway to create a collaborative virtual research institute (VRI) to support the fundamental research and subsequent clinical translation of precision medicine in Abu Dhabi, as well as the United Arab Emirates more broadly. Here, European Pharmaceutical Review’s Hannah Balfour discusses the project with the Head of the new…
Targeting medicines against the genetic and molecular drivers of lung, breast and other tumours has helped transform cancer care for many patients, yet precision medicine for complex chronic diseases has lagged behind. Maria Orr, Adam Platt and Ben Challis, from BioPharmaceuticals R&D at AstraZeneca, explain why this is changing for…
Most therapeutic approaches in immuno-oncology focus on targeting the adaptive immune system; innate immunity has only recently gathered momentum. One of the most potent receptors for activating innate immune cells such as natural killer cells and macrophages is CD16A. Addressing this target mimics the body’s natural defense against potential threats,…
A ‘hot’ topic on the radar of radiologists in recent years has been the safety of the potentially toxic gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This is especially pertinent in the detection of focal liver lesions for patients with poor kidney function due to potentially fatal…

Novartis’ Vijoice® (alpelisib) is the first and only treatment approved for the treatment of the rare spectrum of conditions associated with PROS in certain patients.
A team of scientists has developed a spherical nucleic acid (SNA) vaccine, which has demonstrated high efficacy as a COVID-19 therapy, as well as an anti-cancer treatment in rodents.
Lentiviral gene therapy reduces infections and bleeding episodes in children with a severe immune disorder Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome (WAS), finds new study.
An artificial intelligence (AI)-based test was able to predict cancer patients’ response to drugs more accurately than is currently possible with genetic testing, finds proof-of-concept study.
New data shows that patients taking Aduhelm® (aducanumab-avwa) had significant reductions in tau and amyloid beta after nearly 2.5 years.
New data demonstrates the long-term safety and efficacy of Evrysdi® (risdiplam) in a broad population of people with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
The Phase IIa influenza-challenge study will enrol 123 healthy adults and support the development of INNA-051 as a pan-antiviral nasal spray.
Will mRNA vaccines one day protect against HIV? Three investigational mRNA vaccines, all designed to combat HIV, have entered Phase I testing.
Trodelvy® (sacituzumab govitecan-hziy) was found to significantly reduce the risk of disease progression or death in certain breast cancer patients.
