Just how many employees is Sarepta Therapeutics laying off? And why did the Food and Drug Administration reject Ultragenyx’s rare disease drug over manufacturing qualms?
Ultragenyx CEO Emil Kakkis joins us to discuss what was in the rejection letter his company received late last week, and whether he still has confidence in FDA Commissioner Marty Makary. We also discuss Capricor’s drug rejection, and Sarepta’s decision to lay off hundreds of staffers, but give raises to some executives.
