Aurobindo Pharma has successfully moved one step closer to completing its strategic acquisition of U.S.-based generic drug manufacturer Lannett Company after the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) approved the transaction subject to certain divestiture conditions.

The FTC announced that Aurobindo will divest four generic pharmaceutical products to Quagen Pharmaceuticals as part of a consent agreement designed to preserve competition in the U.S. generic medicines market. With this requirement in place, the proposed acquisition of Lannett can move forward toward completion.

GSK has announced an agreement to acquire Nuvalent, a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on precision cancer therapies, in a transaction valued at approximately 10.6 billion USD. The deal significantly strengthens GSK's oncology pipeline and expands its presence in the rapidly growing lung cancer treatment market.
