Michael Makris: Biomarin Has Decided to Withdraw Roctavian from the Market
Michael Makris, Emeritus Professor of Haemostasis and Thrombosis at the University of Sheffield, shared on LinkedIn:
”IMPORTANT.
Biomarin has decided to withdraw Roctavian, the only approved Haemophilia A gene therapy, from the market.
Biomarin announced several months ago that it wanted to sell Roctavian to another company, but since they failed to find a buyer, they made the decision to voluntarily withdraw Roctavian from the market.
The problem was not that this did not work, but rather that there are a lot of other highly effective choices for haemophilia A subjects available.”
