This week we dig into a brutal regulatory surprise for Moderna after the FDA refuses to even review its flu shot, Sanofi’s abrupt CEO swap as the board demands “more rigor,” the early signals from oral GLP-1s expanding the obesity market, BridgeBio’s late-stage data setting up a rare disease showdown, and AbbVie taking its IRA fight to court over Botox pricing.

ABOUT BOWTIEDBIOTECH

As a reminder, the purpose of the BowTiedBiotech substack is two-fold. Primarily, we aim to provide our scientist audience the tools to build a biotech company and ultimately translate their ideas into medicines for patients. Secondarily, biotech investors may find this substack useful as we will be providing weekly market updates of the public AND private markets as well as heavily leveraging current financing events as teaching examples.
