Pfizer added Oxbryta to its portfolio via its $5.4 billion buyout of Global Blood Therapeutics in 2022.\nIn July, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) initiated a review of Oxbryta (voxelotor) following clinical trial data indicating a higher number of deaths in patients receiving Oxbryta compared to those on a placebo. Another trial also reported more deaths than expected overall.\nOne trial focused on patients with sickle cell disease who were at increased risk of stroke, while the other studied the drug’s impact on leg ulcers, a common complication of the condition.\nThe manufacturer has now halted Oxbryta treatment in both trials, which are pending further investigation.\nIn November 2019, the FDA granted accelerated approval to voxelotor (Oxbryta) for adults and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with sickle cell disease.\nPrice Action: PFE stock is down 0.54% at $28.78 at the last check on Thursday.\nRead Next:\n\nEXCLUSIVE: Vivani Medical Advances Its Obesity Treatment Implant With New Clinical Trial in Australia.\n\nUp Next: Transform your trading with Benzinga Edge's one-of-a-kind market trade ideas and tools.
