Nektar has been given a positive review of its ovarian cancer drug, reports the Pharmaceutical Business Review.
The Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products, a branch of the European Medical Association, has responded positively in relation to Nektar’s attempt to have its ovarian cancer drug granted orphan medicinal product status, which can lead to extended exclusivity. A phase II study is currently recruiting patients with ovarian cancer, whilst the company are looking to begin a phase III study later this year.
Nektar Drug Development and Regulatory Affairs vice president Carlo DiFonzo has said that the news of the positive opinion is welcome following the recent designation of orphan drug status in the US in April.

Novartis’ regulatory affairs staff have secured a new treatment for tuberous sclerosis complex in Europe, reports cslrecruitment.com.
The European Medicine Agency’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use reached the decision following phase II trials showing patients who could not undergo surgery improved significantly. If approved, the treatment will be the first in the EU for this condition.
Herve Hoppenot, oncology president at Novartis, believes this “reflects the commitment Novartis has made to develop innovative therapies to help address unmet medical needs”.

Stricter regulatory affairs are making it harder for new pharmaceuticals to gain approval, cslrecruitment.com reports.
There has been a significant decline in the amount of new drugs being approved over the previous two decades. Many new products fail at the phase III clinical trials, with 55 products failing at this stage in 2010. Chris Stirling, head of pharmaceuticals at KPMG, believes this would not have been the case just fifteen years ago.
Whilst this shows an improvement in drug standards, it also worries pharmaceutical bosses, concerned about the amount of drugs they can successfully produce with the new, tighter guidelines.
Added to this the length of time it takes EU to ratify new drugs compared to the US, making it possible for the US to market and sell drugs sooner than EU businesses, there is significant disquiet amongst EU companies that they could lose out financially.

The increased demand by medicine regulators on license holders has led to increased importance being placed on regulatory affairs, reports inpharm.com. Areas such as paediatric requirements and pharmacovigilance have grown over the last decade, and as the science behind medicine evolves, there needs to be people who can understand and manage what is happening.
Lynda Wright, executive director at The Organisation for Professionals in Regulatory Affairs (TOPRA), says that information has to be effectively processed and assimilated, meaning that “you have to be a confident scientist and say, yes, I can get my head around all that information.” Whereas previously regulatory affairs staff were drawn from pharmacy, an increase in biomedical degrees has led to many others becoming involved in RA.
TOPRA is attempting to increase the amount of students joining straight from university, as traditionally it has been necessary to have experience in the RA field. By working with universities and arranging internships, it hopes to help students looking to go into RA.
Lynda Wright also comments that, whilst RA is not free from cuts, those who are found out of work “are not for long” and mentions that those found redundant in other areas of the pharmaceutical industry could find work within regulatory affairs.
