Keryx's Supply Interruption Of Auryxia And The Delayed Approval For Amgen's Parsabiv Shake Things Up In The Renal Market
PR Newswire - Tue Sep 20, 2:07PM CDT
While nephrologists are stating that the recent supply interruption of Keryx's phosphate binder, Auryxia, does not have a major impact on their practice, the challenge for Keryx will be the re-build - 48% of the nephrologists that had patients on Auryxia, anticipate a slow uptake once supply has been restored with only 6% predicting a rapid expansion. The majority of previous non-users do not plan to use Auryxia once supply is restored. This represents an opportunity for Vifor-FMC's Velphoro and Sanofi's Renvela to capture Auryxia patients who do not have ample supply to bridge the interruption.

PR Newswire - Sun Sep 18, 10:00AM CDT
Amgen (NASDAQ: AMGN) and UCB (Euronext Brussels: UCB) today announced findings from the FRAME study showing that the investigational agent romosozumab significantly reduced the incidence of new vertebral fractures in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis through 12 and 24 months, meeting the study's co-primary endpoints.
