Ep. 222 - Crowley’s Vision for BIO, Plus: MASH & CAR Ts

Putting patients at center stage is at the core of John Crowley’s vision for BIO as he begins his tenure leading the biotech trade group. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast. Washington Editor Steve Usdin details Crowley’s plans to revitalize BIO at a time when effective representation in Washington is more important than ever.
BioCentury’s editors also discuss FDA’s landmark approval of Madrigal's liver disease drug and a decision by FDA’s Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee to support a pair of BCMA-directed CAR T cell therapies in earlier lines to treat multiple myeloma, and what’s needed to help avoid deaths during the period while patient wait for the CAR T cells to be produced.
