GSK Presents Efficacy Data For Cervarix Trial
Drug effective at protecting against cervical cancer-causing human papillomavirus types, 16 and 18
GlaxoSmithKline announces the final analysis of the efficacy trial of a cervical cancer vaccine. The study, involving 18,644 women, confirmed GlaxoSmithKline’s Cervarix is effective at protecting against the two most common cervical cancer-causing human papillomavirus (HPV) types, 16 and 18.
The study also showed that the vaccine provides cross-protection against HPV types 31, 33 and 45, the three most common cancer-causing virus types beyond 16 and 18.
Thomas Breuer, Head of Global Clinical R&D and Chief Medical Officer of GSK Biologicals, said: “These excellent study results confirm the efficacy offered by Cervarix against HPV 16 and 18. For the first time the results show that this vaccine was effective against cervical pre-cancers associated with the five most common cancer-causing virus types. This is really good news for primary prevention of cervical cancer as it indicates the vaccine could offer women additional protection against cervical cancer beyond what had at first been anticipated.”

Nanotechnology in Drug Delivery - Technological Improvements and Novel Approaches to Fulfill High Potential
GBI Research, the leading business intelligence provider, has released its latest report, “Nanotechnology in Drug Delivery - Technological Improvements and Novel Approaches to Fulfill High Potential” that provides key data, information and analysis of the major trends and issues affecting the global nano-enabled drug delivery market. The report provides a comprehensive insight into the current and future application of nanotechnology in the drug delivery systems. It also provides an insight into the key drivers and barriers for the market growth. The report also provides a detailed analysis of the trends and its effects on the nano-enabled drug delivery market. The report also talks about the key regulations that affect the nanotechnology research and development and issues related to its use in pharmaceutical market. The report also details some case study of the latest technology being exploited in pharmaceutical industry. The report also provides detailed analysis of major deals that have happened in the nano-enabled drug delivery market landscape. At the end, the report looks into the future players. This report is built using data and information sourced from proprietary databases, primary and secondary research and in house analysis by GBI Research’s team of industry experts. The nano-enabled drug delivery market has been a high growth market and expected to grow at a faster rate in the near future. According to a study conducted by Willi Paul, and Chandra P. Sharma, the nano-enabled drug delivery market was $1.7 billion in 2009 and expected to reach over $4.8 billion in 2012. The market will witness increased competition, high investment from venture capitalist and government. The M&A and Licensing landscape will see significant changes in the coming future. This is because market is expected to become more lucrative in coming future. The major drivers for the market growth are Increasing acceptance of nano-enabled drugs, and a strong pipeline portfolio. The increasing governmental funding and R&D interest will strengthen the market in future. However, lack of consistent policy on technology transfer, poor R&D facility, and tight audit control and lack of centralized system will restrain the market growth. The nano-enabled drug delivery market has strong pipeline. The pipeline is primarily dominated by molecules in early stage of development. This suggests that the there is high level of R&D investment. This will support the future market and will fuel the licensing activity. Reports Buy online from $3500
