AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoNew Treatment: The European Commission has approved Zealand Pharma’s Zeydovio for adults with short bowel syndrome, the first major European treatment advance for the condition in more than a decade. RSV Protection: EU medicines advisers support extending Merck’s ENFLONSIA protection to high-risk children through a second RSV season. The European Commission is expected to decide within two months; the proposed coverage includes Liechtenstein. Kidney Cancer: Advisers also recommend belzutifan plus lenvatinib for advanced clear-cell kidney cancer after immunotherapy. The combination improved progression-free survival in a trial, though overall survival did not reach statistical significance; a final decision is expected within two months and would cover Liechtenstein. Emerging Infection: France has reported the first known human Shamonda virus infection. The patient, an older man with serious underlying illness, died; investigators are assessing the virus’s role. Health officials say one case does not establish a wider public threat.
