Samsung Biologics Strike: Labor Union Warns of CDMO Supply Chain Risks Following Overwhelming Vote30.3.2026 12:52:00 EEST | Press release
The Samsung Biologics Labor Union (President: Jaesung Park), representing approximately 75% of the company's total employees, announced today that its members have overwhelmingly voted in favor of a strike, with 95.52% voting in favor on a 95.38% turnout during a voting period from March 24 to March 29.

Dompé Announces First Patient Enrolled in New Study of Intranasal NGF in Cerebral Palsy30.3.2026 12:00:00 EEST | Press release
Dompé, a leading biopharmaceutical company with operations in Italy and in the U.S., announced that the first patient has been enrolled at the Agostino Gemelli IRCCS University Hospital in Rome, Italy, in a Phase 2 investigational study of an intranasal form of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) (Cenegermin-bkbj) for the treatment of spastic cerebral palsy (CP). On top of safety and tolerability, the study will evaluate improvements in daily functioning, quality of life, motor abilities, and neurodevelopmental measures of the Cenegermin-bkbj intranasal formulation. CP is the most common motor disability in childhood, caused by injury or changes during early brain development. The most prevalent form, spastic CP, leads to muscle stiffness and difficulty with movement.2 “Cerebral palsy is a devastating disease, and for patients and families there are still no proven treatments beyond supportive care,” said Marcello Allegretti, Chief Scientific Officer at Dompé. “With our emerging intranasal NGF p
