In this episode of Denatured presented by Arvinas, Jennifer Smith-Parker speaks to Arvinas President and CEO Randy Teel about the strategic discipline and leadership required to successfully refocus a company on an early-stage pipeline after a lead asset is outlicensed, discontinued or otherwise falls away — an inflection point many biotech and pharma companies face, but few navigate effectively.

This episode is presented in partnership with Arvinas.

The FDA published briefing documents ahead of advisory committee meetings for Capricor Therapeutics’ Duchenne muscular dystrophy therapy and Replimune’s advanced melanoma drug indicating an uphill battle for the biotechs; GSK and AstraZeneca outlined ambitious plans in second quarter presentations; Sarepta tapped Michael Severino as its new CEO; and Amgen launched its official defense of Tavneos.

In this episode of Denatured, you’ll hear from Ester Sklarsky, principal at Sound Bioventures and João Ribas, partner at Novo Holdings Seed Investments. In this episode, we explore the diverging trajectories of Nordic biotech and what it will take for the region, including Norway and Finland, to compete more cohesively on the global stage.

Second quarter earnings continue to roll with Novartis and Roche reporting this week; Eli Lilly’s AtaiBeckley buy for up to $3.8 billion offers clear “validation” for the fledgling psychedelics space; more drama unfolds at FDA as the agency goes back and forth on its policy of publishing complete response letters in real-time; and IPO fever continues.

In this episode of Denatured, you’ll hear from Lance Alstodt, chairman and CEO at Biorestorative Therapies, and Paul Mieyal, chief business officer at South Rampart Pharma. We explore why pain has remained such a difficult therapeutic area to tackle and one of the biggest unmet needs today, and how non-opioid mechanisms to regenerative therapies could reshape the future of treatment.
