イーライリリーは、進行膵臓がんで次世代KRAS G12C阻害薬オロモラシブについて、FDAから画期的治療薬指定を取得した。この指定は、医療ニーズが高く選択肢が限られるKRAS駆動型膵臓がんにおいて、オロモラシブを優先資産と位置づけるものであり、インクレチン依存度の高いポートフォリオを、特定の変異を標的とする腫瘍薬でバランスさせる同社の取り組みを強化する。同製薬グループはまた、低・中所得国における糖尿病および肥満治療へのアクセス拡大を目的とした世界的な「Change the Course」プログラムを開始した。デイブ・リックスCEOは、現在の肥満領域の焦点を超えた新たな治療領域での大規模買収への移行を示唆しており、その最も明確な指標は、78億ドルのCentessa買収と比較した次回買収の規模と段階、特に感染症、女性の健康、精神医学といった領域で実施された場合である。

リリー、2040年までに低・中所得国の糖尿病・肥満症アクセス格差解消へ「Change the Course」コミットメントを開始
イーライリリー・アンド・カンパニーは、革新的な糖尿病・肥満症治療薬について、低・中所得国を含む資源制約のある地域で治療を受ける患者数を、2040年までに高所得国と同等の水準に引き上げることを目指すグローバルヘルスイニシアチブ「リリー Change the Course コミットメント」を開始した。現在、高所得国でリリーの糖尿病・肥満症治療薬にアクセスできる人が4人いるのに対し、低・中所得国では1人しかアクセスできていない。このコミットメントは3つの柱で構成されている。第一に、臨床開発の初期段階から資源制約のある地域の人々に適した医薬品を開発すること。第二に、アフリカ、ラテンアメリカ、アジアを重点に、GLP-1を含む医薬品の承認取得とアクセス拡大を進めること。第三に、地域保健ワーカーの研修やデジタルツールを通じて保健システムの強化を支援すること。今回の発表は、リリーのグローバルヘルスイニシアチブ「30x30」が予定より5年前倒しで完了したことを受けたものだ。同イニシアチブは2025年に資源制約のある地域で4000万人に質の高い医療へのアクセスを拡大し、2030年までに年間3000万人に到達するという当初目標を上回った。リリー会長兼最高経営責任者のデイビッド・A・リックス氏は、室温で保存可能な経口治療薬であるFoundayo、すなわちオルフォルグリプロンなどの革新的医薬品が、より多くの低・中所得国で流通とアクセス拡大を進める助けになると述べた。リリーは治療到達の進捗を年次のサステナビリティレポートおよび主要なグローバルヘルスフォーラムで報告する予定だ。
