October 6, 2021 - Fierce Biotech
Boston Scientific aims to energize its cardiac portfolios by putting down $1.75 billion upfront for Baylis Medical to secure its devices designed to reach the far corners of the heart. The Canadian company’s specialty includes minimally invasive platforms that allow surgeons to accurately cross the thin, internal barrier separating the heart’s upper right and left chambers—providing a path for a catheter to treat atrial fibrillation, seal off the stroke-causing left atrial appendage or help fix a malfunctioning mitral valve.

October 7, 2021 - Fierce Biotech
Arch Venture Partners has taken the lid off its big bet on neuroscience. Having quietly put the startup together over the past 18 months, Thursday Arch unveiled Neumora Therapeutics—a biotech that starts life with $500 million, a collaboration with Amgen and a pipeline of eight prospects. Neumora represents a test of the idea that neuroscience is on the cusp of the sort of rapid progress that has transformed oncology in recent years. If Neumora is right, recent advances in genomics and neurobiology have set the stage for more targeted modulation of the underlying biology of specific brain diseases, just as the oncology field has gone from targeting organs to zeroing in on molecularly defined diseases.

October 8, 2021 - Contract Pharma
Samsung Biologics, a contract development and manufacturing organization, and Enzolytics (ENZC), a drug development company committed to commercializing multiple proprietary therapeutics to treat debilitating infectious diseases, have signed a strategic CDMO partnership agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, Samsung Biologics will provide end-to-end CDMO services from cell line development, clinical drug substance, and drug product manufacturing services to support IND filings for Anti-HIV and Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Monoclonal Antibodies for the treatment of HIV and SARS-CoV-2. In addition, there will be continuing discussions for other Monoclonal Antibodies being developed by Enzolytics.

October 8, 2021 - Contract Pharma
Cambrex unveiled plans to expand its manufacturing center of excellence in High Point, NC. The $30 million investment is designed to meet the continually growing demand for small molecule development and manufacturing services. The expansion will add new chemistry laboratories, two new clinical manufacturing suites and include a small-scale commercial manufacturing operation with three work centers and 2,000-liter reactors. This investment will provide Cambrex with the capabilities to handle the latest R&D process research tools and techniques, increase Cambrex’s equipment offerings to support customer’s speed to market goals, and provide a dedicated facility for orphan drugs and niche therapies.
