Bausch Health has named former Bristol-Meyers Squibb executive Jonathan Sadeh to head up its research and development.
Sadeh joins the Canadian pharmaceutical company as executive vice president, chief medical officer and head of R&D. In the role, he will oversee Bausch's entire R&D process, working with the company's scientists and engineers.
Sadeh has more than two decades clinical research and drug development experience as a physician-scientist and pharma-industry leader, Bausch said. Most recently at Bristol-Meyers Squibb he was responsible for multiple drug approvals in dermatology and gastroenterology and held several key roles, including senior vice president and global programs head for immunology, cardiovascular and neuroscience, immunology therapeutic area head.
The Laval, Quebec, company in late October said it was targeting revenue this year of between $9.5 billion and $9.68 billion. Bausch has rejected debt-restructuring proposals from bondholders as it continues to explore an exit from its Bausch + Lomb subsidiary.
