Trio Wins Nobel for Oxygen Studies That Led to Anemia Drugs
(Bloomberg) -- Three researchers from the U.S. and Britain won a Nobel Prize for showing how cells sense and adapt to changing oxygen levels, a line of research that’s already led to the development of new drugs.Americans William Kaelin of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston and Gregg Semenza of Baltimore’s Johns Hopkins Medicine, and Peter Ratcliffe of the Francis Crick Institute in London received this year’s award for physiology or medicine, the Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute said Monday in a statement.“The seminal discoveries by this year’s Nobel laureates revealed the mechanism for one of life’s most essential adaptive processes,” the assembly said in the statement. “Their discoveries have also paved the way for promising new strategies to fight anemia, cancer and many other diseases.”Semenza and Ratcliffe separately studied the processes surrounding the sensing of oxygen, and found it was at work in virtually all the body’s tissues. Semenza worked in the 1990s on identifying a protein complex that binds to cells’ DNA in response to levels of oxygen in the environment.The complex, called hypoxia inducible factor, regulates production of red blood cells. The science behind it is the basis for an anemia drug codeveloped by AstraZeneca Plc and Fibrogen Inc. called roxadustat that was approved in China in December.Astra is just a few steps away from bringing the drug to patients, said Mene Pangalos, executive vice president of biopharmaceutical research and development, in an email. “This would never have been possible without early breakthroughs of this year’s Nobel winners,” he said.GlaxoSmithKline Plc has filed for Japanese approval of a drug based on the mechanism, called daprodustat. Kaelin’s work linked the same oxygen-regulating machinery to a role in cancer, which is also being mined for potential therapeutics.Annual prizes for achievements in physics, chemistry, medicine, peace and literature were established in the will of Alfred Nobel, the Swedish inventor of dynamite, who died in 1896. The total amount for each of the 2019 prizes is 9 million kronor ($909,000).(Updates with company comment in sixth paragraph)\--With assistance from John Lauerman.To contact the reporters on this story: Niklas Magnusson in Stockholm at nmagnusson1@bloomberg.net;Veronica Ek in Stockholm at vek@bloomberg.netTo contact the editors responsible for this story: Jonas Bergman at jbergman@bloomberg.net, ;Tasneem Hanfi Brögger at tbrogger@bloomberg.net, Eric PfannerFor more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.com©2019 Bloomberg L.P.

Reuters VideosDrugmakers in spotlight as GSK recalls Zantac
Popular heartburn medicine Zantac may be rather less popular after a move by its makers to recall it. The decision, says GlaxoSmithKline, a 'precaution' ... After the U.S. FDA found "unacceptable" levels of probable cancer-causing impurity in the drug. It's not the first such move for what is also sold generically as ranitidine. Swiss drugmaker Novartis halted global distribution last month. Last week, Walmart and CVS Health, Walgreens Boots Alliance and Rite Aid suspended over-the-counter sales. Canada has asked drugmakers to halt distribution - Ireland and Hong Kong have pulled products. UK regulators said GSK was recalling four prescription-only Zantac medicines. An over-the-counter version made by a different company is not affected. Also in the sector spotlight: Johnson & Johnson. The drugs and consumer goods giant ordered to pay eight billion dollars in punitive damages ... To a plaintiff in the US, a Philadelphia jury has said. The damages dwarf an initial 680,000 dollar award ... Which concerns claims J&J failed to warn that young men using its antipsychotic drug Risperdal could grow breasts. Thousands of Risperdal cases are pending in the state.
