Industry news

From the perspective of the historical axis of global biopharmaceutical industry development, in 2025, many changes are taking place.

In terms of new drug development, weight loss drugs have entered the vast fields of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, becoming a major hot topic following traditional specialty drugs such as oncology, immunology and rare disease therapies. Meanwhile, the industrial environment is also changing - although the capital environment for investment and mergers & acquisitions seems to be recovering, the medical system that has not yet fully adapted to the logic of innovative drugs struggles to support returns on innovation. As a result, many countries' medical systems are embarking on reforms with increasing patient dominance. The application regulations related to AI-powered drug development will also be introduced in 2025...

We are in an environment full of uncertainties where geopolitical friction still threatens the trend towards globalization in biopharmaceutical industries; however, fundamental aspects may change in 2025. This article sorts out five significant transformations happening within pharmaceutical industries based on Nature Reviews published earlier this year.

Oncotherapy: Personalized Cancer Vaccines May Become Reality This year could mark a milestone for personalized cancer vaccines—Moderna’s mRNA-4157 combined with Merck’s Keytruda (pembrolizumab) for melanoma treatment was approved by US regulators after showing impressive efficacy at ASCO Annual Meeting held last year (May). According to newly released follow-up data from phase III clinical trials during ASCO meeting this past June: patients who received surgery followed by combination therapy had their recurrence or death risk reduced by nearly half compared with chemotherapy alone; distant metastasis or death risk dropped even more significantly than traditional treatments did – offering safer options without severe side effects like those associated conventional chemoradiation methods do today! Once approved it means stepping into "private customized era", reshaping how we treat cancer moving forward! In addition，the field of bispecific antibodies is rich in achievements. Ivositamab targeting PD1 and VEGF performed excellently in phase III clinical trials for treating non-small cell lung cancer，becoming first new therapy surpassing pembrolizumab head-to-head trial；although only China'has clinical trial data so far but research globally has been carried out intensively indicating potential birth soon enough！Zanidatamab which can bind two epitopes on same target（HER）was granted approval from US Food and Drug Administration(FDA)for cholangiocarcinoma November last year will officially applied Clinically throughout whole world next Year！It should be noted that improvement&innovation about formulation type Of medicine Also deserve attention：FDA Approved subcutaneous injection preparation Tecentriq September last Year December Bristol Myers Squibb company Navolumab Subcutaneous Injection Preparation Moreover Pabolumab Subcutaneous Injection Agent Mk -3475A Third Phase Clincal Study Succeeded Market Soon New Formulation Will Greatly improve

Tai De global third stage Cardiovascular outcome Trial Surpass CVOT As well oral semaglutide EVOKE EVOKE +Clinical Trial Results Which Is currently assessing impact cognition function early stage Alzheimer Disease patients Now GLP class medications validated beyond blood sugar lowering weight reduction blocking sleep apnea Metabolic disorder related fatty liver disease chronic kidney disease etc extraordinary therapeutic effect performance！！GLP molecules including Lill Orforglipron brin glen hartmann dual activation agent survodutide upcoming announcement Three Phase Test Data become focus market attention particularly head against CagriSema compound preparation tazepatib comparative studies completed August next years！！Health insurance payers decisions regarding coverage policies play crucial role affecting future prospects Medicare funding policy facing uncertainty under Trump administration again——Novo Nordisk product included second round ”healthcare negotiation” list prices likely face substantial adjustment while National Health Service actively promoting NHS real world study reflect desire collect detailed evidence cost benefit relationship concerning these agents！！！Mergers & Acquisition Potential Buyer Seller Urgent Need Compared post pandemic boomlet merger activity cool down total deal amount around 45 billion drop over previous years However Merger markets remain ripe opportunities coming years Large pharma companies possess over trillion dollars buyout funds plus revenue products expiration patent risks near term making them eager seek growth points Investors continuously pressuring acquire involvement emerging popular areas such ADCS Bispecific antibodies etc Around Seventy percent projects advanced Biotech companies sixty percent assets yet find partners promising candidates Viking Company VK2735 structure therapeutic company gbsbr1２９０ both show great potential despite reopen stock markets boost valuation due technological advancement interest rates decline majority listed biotechnology firms still tight financially speaking cash reserve barely sustain less than twelve months operation desperately need financial supports Course must cautious outlook merger prospects ahead given trump administration macroeconomic situation geopolitics regulatory environments especially possible amendment inflation reduction act bring uncertainty once these dissipate buyer seller demand reignite market！！！AI Pharma Application Regulatory framework Evolution Government working hard build comprehensive legal framework ensure safety ethics correct usage Artificial intelligence First ever dedicated legislation EU artificial intelligence Act came into effect February Second pioneer international governance precedent covering
