We bring on a mother whose 7-year-old has Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and hear her thoughts on Sarepta’s decision to pull its treatment Elevidys from the market, following a request from the Food and Drug Administration. We also talk about a rare mega-round for a new oncology biotech and an emerging class of drugs aimed at helping people stay awake.
