FDA approves NVS’ Pluvicto*, a radioligand for CRPC:

FDA approves NVS’ Leqvio—(inclisiran)—for lowering LDL-C:
https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/fda-approves-novartis-leqvio-inclisiran-first-in-class-sirna-to-lower-cholesterol-and-keep-it-low-with-two-doses-a-year-301450125.html
NVS initially received a CRL from the FDA in late 2020 due to the FDA’s inability to conduct an inspection of the Leqvio’s manufacturing site in Italy (#msg-160327185).
Leqvio is a siRNA dosed semiannually (except for the 3-month interval between the first two doses). NVS picked up this drug when it acquired MDCO in Nov 2019 (#msg-152458295).
ALNY, which will get a 10-20% royalty on global sales, discovered Inclisiran and out-licensed it to MDCO in 2013 (#msg-84151150); with the benefit of hindsight we can say that MDCO clearly got the better of ALNY in this deal.
Leqvio was approved in the EI in late 2020 (https://www.novartis.com/news/media-releases/novartis-receives-eu-approval-leqvio-inclisiran-first-class-sirna-lower-cholesterol-two-doses-year ).
NVS plans $15B share buybacks through 2023—exhausting ~70% of the proceeds from the recent sale of Roche shares:

This might be one reason XBI was down today.
Novartis should invest in mRNA medicine and pair up with companies like Regen Biopharma to speed up this process. Perhaps an outright purchase of this start up company. This will ensure competing with likes of Pfizer and Moderna.

good news today - Novartis Says Asciminib Showed Superior MMR Rate to Bosulif in Leukemia Trial
December 08 2020 - 11:00AM
Dow Jones News
By Michael Dabaie
Novartis AG said asciminib showed superior major molecular response rate to Bosulif in a chronic myeloid leukemia trial.
The company said results from a Phase III study demonstrate that at 24 weeks, asciminib nearly doubled the major molecular response rate compared with Bosulif in patients resistant to, or intolerant of, at least two prior tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapies.
The data were presented at a late-breaking abstracts session during the 62nd American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting & Exposition, Novartis said.
In the trial, 233 patients were randomized to receive asciminib 40 mg twice daily or Bosulif 500 mg once a day.
Novartis said the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted Fast Track designation for asciminib. The company said it plans submission to U.S. and EU health authorities in the first half of 2021.

NVS/GMAB—FDA approves Kesimpta—(subcutaneous ofatumumab)—for MS:
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/u-fda-approves-kesimpta-ofatumumab-173300452.html
https://t.co/9AOLIf7Qln?amp=1
NVS acquired the commercial rights to ofatumumab from GSK, and NVS will pay GSK a tiered royalty up to 12% on worldwide sales of Kesimpta (#msg-116391951).
Ofatumumab, administered via IV, was FDA-approved for CLL under the brand name, Arzerra in 2009 (#msg-42935958).
Ofatumumab PFUFA delayed 3mo—>Sep 2020 for MS indication:

The PR does not cite a reason for the delay.
NVS acquired Ofatumumab’s commercial rights in MS from GSK in a 2015 transaction involving a $500M up-front payment by NVS (#msg-116391951).
What am I missing here? Why is no one talking about Novartis for their hydroxychloroquine?
It won't have any effect at all on the share price. It's a goodwill gesture and it's the right thing to do morally.
How much will this affect the stock price 160 mil pills at 4$ is a lot of money
Yes—that was announced on Friday: #msg-154462215.
Is it true NVS to supply 160 mil chloroquine pills to America to help fight corona virus
Acceptance of a BLA/NDA application for review doesn’t generally move the needle for a company as large as NVS unless the FDA grants a priority review when investors expected a standard review, which wasn’t the case here.
The cause is a safety update re Beovu (the recently approved drug for AMD):

5.5% drop on a biotech drug firm like NVS 8 days before the dividend date looks way over done to me with Biotechs in favor and nothing but Good news today and recently on NVS.
Panic selling seems way over done. But then again panics are like that.
You see any bad news at all on NVS I missed?
