本周,多家大型医药公司开始公布2021年第一季度财报以及公司的最新进展。今天药明康德内容团队将与读者分享罗氏(Roche)和渤健(Biogen)公司的最新研发动向。罗氏公司面对新冠大流行,在开发新冠病毒的检测和疗法方面取得了显著进展。渤健公司已经向巴西、加拿大、瑞士和澳大利亚递交了其在研阿尔茨海默病(AD)抗体疗法的aducanumab的监管申请,与Sage Therapeutics公司合作开发治疗抑郁症和运动障碍的创新疗法也获得积极临床结果。
罗氏

罗氏在新冠大流行爆发以来,在新冠病毒诊断方面推出了数十种检测方法,在第一季度财报上的电话会议上,罗氏高管介绍了该公司开发的快速抗原检测,这款检测手段能够在15分钟内以99.1%的特异性检测出受到新冠病毒感染的患者。此外,该公司还开发了新冠突变病毒核酸检测,能够定性区分新冠病毒携带的E484K、N501Y、以及HV-69/70缺失变异。这将有助于追踪不同新冠突变病毒株在人群中的流行程度。

渤健去年与Sage Therapeutics公司达成研发合作,共同开发用于治疗抑郁症的潜在“first-in-class”GABAA受体别构调节剂zuranolone和治疗原发性震颤的SAGE-324。Zuranolone近日在治疗重度抑郁症(MDD)患者的开放标签3期临床试验中获得积极结果。超过70%接受剂量为30 mg的zuranolone治疗的患者和80%接受剂量为50 mg的zuranolone治疗的患者在接受治疗15天时就获得积极应答。治疗原发性震颤的BIIB124(SAGE-324)在2期临床试验中也达到主要终点。
