Big pharma and cancer
Saw this interesting post on immunotherapy in the Financial Times in the waiting room. Go to ft.com/pharmaceuticals There was also an article: « Drugmakers take an unorthodox route to cancer biosimilars » about the NHS buying Chinese biosimilar version, which they call « copycat » of Rituximab, Trastuzumab
