Leading Biotech Companies Seek Biologic Treatments for Rare Diseases Utilizing Viable Therapeutic Approach - Company Receives FDA Orphan Drug Designation for Bryostatin
PR Newswire - Thu Apr 09, 7:35AM CDT
According to a recent article published on the Wall Street Journal, the debate over prescription drug pricing has grown increasingly contentious, particularly as drug makers issue more new medicines with high price tags. But despite the tumult, the cost for orphan drugs - medicines that are designated by the FDA to treat a rare disease and may cost as much as $400,000 annually - is apparently not fazing some insurers. Billions of dollars a year are being earmarked for new clinical studies and trials for the treatment of neurodevelopmental disorders as leading biotech companies race to identify treatments for genetic, cognitive, and neural levels for autism disorders.
