It takes 12 years on average for a company to take a drug from discovery to commercialization, and every hard-won FDA approval is a cause for celebration for researchers, companies and the end-users whose lives may be changed by these treatments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The past few years have seen numerous regulatory successes for biopharmaceutical companies. In 2020, the FDA approved&nbsp;<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fda.gov\/drugs\/new-drugs-fda-cders-new-molecular-entities-and-new-therapeutic-biological-products\/new-drug-therapy-approvals-2020\">53 new molecular entities<\/a>, and in 2021,&nbsp;<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fiercepharma.com\/special-report\/2021-s-new-drug-approvals\">55 new drugs were approved<\/a>,&nbsp;including multiple COVID-19 vaccines and Biogen&rsquo;s controversial Alzheimer&rsquo;s disease treatment, Aduhelm. In 2022 that number dropped to 37, but included TG Therapeutics&rsquo; BRIUMVI for relapsing forms of Multiple Sclerosis. 2023 saw approvals rise to&nbsp;<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fiercepharma.com\/special-reports\/2023-drug-approvals-after-down-year-fda-signs-bounty-new-medicines\">an impressive 66 new drugs<\/a>,&nbsp;which included Qalsody for ALS, Leqembi for Alzheimer&rsquo;s disease and the postpartum depression drug, Zurzuvae.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Six drugs have already received a nod from the FDA in 2024, and there are a handful of hotly anticipated therapeutics waiting in the wings. PRISM MarketView takes a look at the year&rsquo;s successes and what we can expect to see in the coming months.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"1\">\n<li>ZELSUVMI&trade;, Ligand Pharmceuticals&rsquo; treatment for molluscum contagiosum in adults and pediatric patients, was&nbsp;approved in the first week of the year. ZELSUVMI is the first novel drug for the treatment of molluscum, a highly contagious viral skin infection.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"2\">\n<li>Discovered by Indian pharmaceuticals company, and commercialized by privately-held Allecra Therapeutics,&nbsp;Exblifep was granted FDA approval&nbsp;for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections in February.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"3\">\n<li>Also in February, Korean toxin manufacturer Hugel&nbsp;won FDA approval for Letybo, described as the leading neurotoxin brand in South Korea, and a direct competitor to Allergan&rsquo;s Botox, to improve the appearance of&nbsp;moderate-to-severe glabellar (frown) lines.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"4\">\n<li>Tevimbra, a BeiGene and Novartis&nbsp;&nbsp;collaboration, received a regulatory nod for the treatment of patients with unresectable or metastatic&nbsp;esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The treatment was found to be safer than chemotherapy, with manageable adverse effects.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"5\">\n<li>Last week, Madrigal Pharmaceuticals&rsquo; Rezdiffra won FDA approval, becoming the&nbsp;first and only drug to be approved for the advanced liver disease,&nbsp;metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"6\">\n<li>This week, Swiss biotech, Idorsia&nbsp;&nbsp;was granted FDA approval for Tryvio, a&nbsp;once-daily treatment to&nbsp;reduce hypertension, in combination with other antihypertensive drugs in adults.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Drugs anticipated to cross the FDA finish line in 2024 include Karuna Therapeutics&rsquo; KarXT for schizophrenia. The drug&rsquo;s Prescription Drug User Fee Amendments (PDUFA) action date is set for September 2024 and if approved, KarXT would represent the first new pharmacological approach to treating schizophrenia in several decades. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Eli Lilly&rsquo;s Donanemab for Alzheimer&rsquo;s disease has demonstrated significant slowing of cognitive and functional decline in people with early symptomatic Alzheimer&#8217;s disease in Phase 3 studies. The company expects to have a decision from the FDA in the first quarter of 2024. Finally, ImmunityBio&rsquo;s&nbsp;&nbsp;Anktiva for nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer is approaching its PDUFA date &#8211; April 23 &#8211; when it expects a final decision from the FDA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>About PRISM MarketView:<\/strong>Established in 2020, PRISM MarketView is dedicated to the monitoring and analysis of small cap stocks in burgeoning sectors.
