This decision followed its Arthritis Advisory Committee's 13-2 vote on November 16, 2010 to recommend the drug's approval. Jay Keasling discusses the discovery that led to the production of a new semi-synthetic artemisinin, a key ingredient in today's front-line antimalarial drugs. Food and Drug Administration in January 2012 called vismodegib (brand name Erivedge) to treat inoperable basal cell carcinomas. Growth was driven by an increase in revenues within the Company's drug discovery alliances, significant milestone revenue from Andromeda/Teva, Boehringer Ingelheim and Novartis, revenues from upfront payments from the CureBeta partnership with Janssen and contributions from acquisitions of Evotec Munich and Evotec San Francisco. The average length of time from target discovery to approval of a new drug currently averages 13 years, the failure rate exceeds 95 percent, and after adjusting for all the failures the cost per successful drug exceeds $1 billion. Following regulatory approval expected later this year, semisynthetic artemisinin will be ready for rapid integration into the supply chain for antimalarial therapies, according to the company. Then a third option emerged: a new drug approved by the U.S. Like most patients prescribed a Sixteen years after the fruit fly discoveries, in 1996, Scott and a team at UC-San Francisco led by Ervin Epstein Jr., MD, professor of dermatology, made another huge discovery that would connect the hedgehog pathway and certain cancers. Some attack them for slowing down or impeding drug approvals, while others accuse them of safety lapses. The breakthrough therapies designation is likely to shorten the timeline from discovery to commercial approval – for those drugs receiving the designation – to between three and five years, according to IMS estimates. The labeling of drugs approved using this pathway would make clear that the drug is narrowly indicated for use in limited, well-defined subpopulations in which the drug's benefits have been shown to outweigh its risks.
