NICE recommends Tryngolza for ultra-rare lipid disorder treatment in England and Wales

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has issued final draft guidance recommending Tryngolza (olezarsen) for treating genetically confirmed familial chylomicronaemia syndrome (FCS) in adults in England and Wales. The treatment is approved only when diet and conventional triglyceride-lowering treatments prove inadequate. FCS is an ultra-rare inherited lipid disorder characterised by severe hypertriglyceridaemia and increased risk of acute pancreatitis. Around 114 people in the UK are diagnosed with FCS, though the condition is thought to be under-diagnosed. The recommendation follows positive Phase 3 Balance study results, where Tryngolza 80 mg demonstrated statistically significant reductions in fasting triglyceride levels at six months, sustained through 12 months. The treatment also showed clinically meaningful reductions in acute pancreatitis events. Sobi UK holds exclusive commercialisation rights for Tryngolza outside the US, except Canada and China.

Swedish pharma Sobi acquires full control of Latin American oncology specialist Pint Pharma

Swedish biopharmaceutical company Sobi (Swedish Orphan Biovitrum) is acquiring full ownership of Pint Pharma, a firm specialising in bringing complex treatments, including cancer therapies, to Latin American markets. The transaction builds on Sobi's initial investment last year, when it paid $105 million for most of Pint's economic rights. The deal, submitted to Brazil's competition authority Cade, involves purchasing all remaining shares of Pharma Investments, Pint's parent company. The transaction value remains undisclosed. The acquisition gives Sobi control of a platform operating across seven Latin American markets, including Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia. Pint handles regulatory approval, market access, and distribution of specialised medicines for rare diseases, haematology, and oncology. Sobi reported revenue of 28.2 billion Swedish kronor (approximately $2.9 billion) in 2025. The companies have maintained a commercial partnership since 2021.
