On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s editors assess responses to their VC survey regarding the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank in light of First Citizens’ acquisition of SVB. BioCentury’s editors also discuss how FDA’s advisory committee meeting for tofersen from Biogen and Ionis bolsters the case for neurofilament as a surrogate endpoint in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and why last week’s FDA draft guidance on accelerated approval could make cancer drug development harder for small biotechs. This week’s podcast is sponsored by Jeito Capital.
