Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, Inc.&nbsp;("Catalyst" or "Company") (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPRX#NASDAQ">CPRX</a>), a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on in-licensing, developing, and commercializing novel medicines for patients living with rare diseases, today announced that its sub-licensee in Japan, DyDo Pharma, Inc., ("DyDo") has reported that the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare of Japan has approved DyDo's New Drug Application ("NDA") to commercialize FIRDAPSE&#xAE; (amifampridine) Tablets 10 mg for treatment of patients with Lambert-Eaton Myasthenic Syndrome ("LEMS") in Japan. This approval marks a pivotal advancement in the treatment of LEMS, a rare autoimmune disorder that can severely impact quality of life and represents a significant step forward in addressing the unmet needs of patients affected by LEMS in Japan.
"We are pleased that our partner, DyDo, has secured regulatory approval for FIRDAPSE in Japan. This represents a meaningful milestone, bringing renewed hope to patients and further affirming FIRDAPSE's proven effectiveness in the treatment of LEMS," said Richard J. Daly, Catalyst's President and Chief Executive Officer. "This achievement underscores our unwavering commitment to advancing patient care. We appreciate the collaborative efforts of our partner in securing this approval, and we remain focused on expanding our innovative rare disease product portfolio beyond the U.S. to make a meaningful impact on patients' lives worldwide."
FIRDAPSE (amifampridine) is a leading therapy indicated in the United States for the treatment of LEMS in adults and pediatric patients six years of age and older. LEMS is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by muscle weakness and fatigue. About 50% of people with LEMS have underlying cancer, as LEMS is observed in approximately 3% of small-cell lung cancer patients. FIRDAPSE is the only U.S. FDA-approved, evidence-based treatment for LEMS. As a cornerstone of Catalyst's commitment to serving those with rare diseases, FIRDAPSE is supported in the U.S. by a comprehensive patient support program to help ensure accessibility and assistance for eligible U.S. patients.

Revelation Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/REVB#NASDAQ">REVB</a>) (the "Company" or "Revelation"), a clinical-stage life sciences company that is focused on harnessing the power of trained immunity for the prevention and treatment of disease, today announced statistically significant, dose dependent increases of interleukin-10 (IL-10) in response to Gemini treatment, using a high sensitivity analysis. This additional positive data follows the previously reported positive <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.revbiosciences.com%2Fnews73&amp;esheet=54126274&amp;newsitemid=20240924064564&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=topline+data+from+the+Phase+1+clinical+study+of+Gemini&amp;index=1&amp;md5=251ba51b272b745c89d17af8755c3483">topline data from the Phase 1 clinical study of Gemini</a> released on June 24, 2024.
Using high sensitivity serum IL-10 biomarker analysis to gain further insight into Gemini's capability for resolution of inflammation, Revelation tested samples from the Phase 1 clinical study. It was found that Gemini induced statistically significant, dose dependent changes in circulatory IL-10 at 2 hours post-dose, with a p-value of &lt; 0.05 or greater, at each of the low, mid, and high dose levels, as shown in Figure 1. The change in IL-10 observed for treatment groups relative to placebo, were a 27-fold increase, 162-fold increase, and 309-fold increase for the low, mid, and high dose groups, respectively.
IL-10 is a potent anti-inflammatory protein that downregulates pro-inflammatory cytokines and is an active contributor to initiating reduction of inflammation. The significant increase of anti-inflammatory IL-10 with no significant increase in pro-inflammatory IL-1β and TNF-α confirms TLR4 binding unique to Gemini, and is further evidence of the reprogramming of the innate immune response, enabling Gemini to initiate resolution of inflammation and promote the healing process.
The observed increase of IL-10 in humans is consistent with prior preclinical studies performed by Revelation where an increase in IL-10 was observed in <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.revbiosciences.com%2Fnews60&amp;esheet=54126274&amp;newsitemid=20240924064564&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=healthy+animals&amp;index=2&amp;md5=dba735604f9f7922b050fc373a1fd8dd">healthy animals</a> as well as efficacy models, including the <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic1.squarespace.com%2Fstatic%2F5f536d50b94bfb444769fc95%2Ft%2F65f114641526fa578482eaac%2F1710298213540%2FPrevention%2Bof%2BAKI%2Bw%2BGemini%2BCRRT%2BPresentation%2Band%2BPoster%2B2024.pdf&amp;esheet=54126274&amp;newsitemid=20240924064564&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=ischemia%2Freperfusion+model+of+acute+kidney+injury&amp;index=3&amp;md5=9a89ab3850d72e11e309d58197a508fc">ischemia/reperfusion model of acute kidney injury</a> and <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.revbiosciences.com%2Fnews48&amp;esheet=54126274&amp;newsitemid=20240924064564&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=unilateral+ureteral+obstruction+model+of+kidney+injury&amp;index=4&amp;md5=c3be07701ccf2cae5a96619526bd4589">unilateral ureteral obstruction model of kidney injury</a>.

Novo Nordisk's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>) CEO Lars Fruergaard Jorgensen, has revealed that their diabetes medication and often hailed as a &#8220;miracle&#8221; weight loss drug, Ozempic will soon be eligible for U.S. government price negotiations, potentially within the next year.
What Happened: Jorgensen is scheduled to testify before a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/09/40986953/novo-nordisk-ceo-to-face-senate-scrutiny-over-high-ozempic-and-wegovy-prices-hearing-scheduled-on">Senate committee on Tuesday</a> to discuss U.S. pricing for Ozempic and the weight loss drug Wegovy. The comments align with Wall Street analysts&#8217; expectations that Ozempic will be on the 2027 price negotiation list, which will be announced in February 2025, Reuters reported.
Last week, another Novo executive indicated that Ozempic would &#8220;very likely&#8221; be included in the 2027 list. A month&#8217;s supply of Ozempic currently lists at $935.77 in the U.S., while Wegovy lists for $1,349.02 per month, although insurance often reduces these costs.
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 permits Medicare to negotiate prices for costly prescription drugs, impacting millions of Americans. Both Ozempic and Wegovy have faced scrutiny from lawmakers over their high prices in the U.S.
Jorgensen noted that the net price of Ozempic has decreased by about 40% since its U.S. introduction, and Wegovy&#8217;s net price has similarly declined since its launch. He expects net prices for both drugs to continue to fall under current market conditions.

Why It Matters: The upcoming Senate hearing, scheduled for Tuesday, will see Lars Fruergaard Jorgensen face rigorous questioning from U.S. lawmakers regarding the high prices of Ozempic and Wegovy. Senator Bernie Sanders, chair of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions, has been vocal about the exorbitant costs of these medications.
In a previous interview, Jorgensen <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/08/40550961/novo-nordisk-does-not-operate-as-drug-cartel-ceo-defends-us-pricing-of-ozempic-against-criticism-">defended the high U.S. prices</a>, arguing that these drugs help reduce the economic burden of obesity-related health issues, which costs the U.S. over $400 billion annually. He dismissed accusations that Novo Nordisk operates as a drug cartel as &#8220;unfounded.&#8221; 
Additionally, the issue of counterfeit Ozempic has emerged as a significant concern. Criminals have been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/09/40737027/fake-ozempic-targets-weight-loss-market-forged-batches-an-international-concern">distributing fake versions</a> of the drug by forging batch numbers, which has become an international issue. The World Health Organization and Interpol have both issued warnings about these counterfeit products.
