  • An expected blockbuster drug from Gilead is rejected, imperiling the biotech’s future growth

    AUGUST 19, 2020

    By ADAM FEUERSTEIN and DAMIAN GARDE

    Back before remdesivir became a household name, Gilead Sciences’ most-discussed drug was filgotinib, a treatment for inflammatory disease expected to deliver billions of dollars in new revenue at a time when the biotech desperately needs it. All that got put in jeopardy on Tuesday night.

    The FDA rejected Gilead’s application to sell filgotinib as a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and said it wouldn’t reconsider until the company can provide more data on the drug’s effect on patients’ sperm counts.
