Cross-Border Private Credit Set to Surge, But Operational Complexity Threatens Momentum, CSC Finds4.12.2025 15:30:00 EET | Press release
Cross-border private credit transactions are poised for strong growth, yet operational complexity is emerging as a critical hurdle. According to CSC, the leading provider of business administration and compliance solutions, an overwhelming 92% of limited partners (LPs) express concern over the complexity of these deals. Published in CSC’s latest report, Private Credit 2025: Global Strategies for a $1.5 Trillion Market, the findings highlight a growing disconnect between investors and fund managers as private credit continues its rapid international expansion. 1 While both LPs and general partners (GPs) remain optimistic about the growth of cross-border private credit, they diverge sharply when it comes to operational readiness. Nearly eight in 10 GPs (79%) anticipate growth in the sector over the next three years, with more than half (51%) expecting a significant acceleration. LPs, however, are increasingly cautious—40% reported turning down multiple fund or investment opportunities la

Redefining Acromegaly Care: First Patient Randomized in Debiopharm’s Phase III OXTEND-03™ Trial of 3-Month Debio 4126 Treatment4.12.2025 15:00:00 EET | Press release
Debiopharm (www.debiopharm.com), a privately-owned, Swiss-based biopharmaceutical company committed to establishing tomorrow’s standards of care in oncology and rare diseases, today announced that the first patient has been randomized in the OXTEND-03™ clinical trial. This pivotal Phase III trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Debio 4126, a novel long-acting octreotide formulation and the first potential 3-month somatostatin analogue (SSA), in adults with acromegaly who are currently maintained on somatostatin analogs. OXTEND-03™ is a global trial spanning approximately 75 sites across 21 countries, aiming to enroll around 120 patients. The primary goal of the trial is to confirm Debio 4126’s ability to maintain biochemical control of the disease while significantly reducing the patient’s annual treatment burden from 12 injections to just 4. This shift is expected to enhance patient convenience, improve long-term adherence, and potentially decrease healthcare resour

Parse Biosciences Launches Evercode Whole Blood Fixation4.12.2025 15:00:00 EET | Press release
Parse Biosciences, a leading provider of accessible and scalable single cell sequencing solutions, today announced the launch of Evercode™ Whole Blood Fixation, a new kit that enables immediate fixation of whole blood directly at the point of collection. The technology eliminates the need for on-site PBMC isolation, specialized equipment, or trained personnel, allowing translational hematology and pharmaceutical research teams to seamlessly collect blood samples in real-world clinical settings for downstream single cell analysis. Traditional single cell RNA profiling workflows done in a translational setting require a compromise between processing fresh samples, which degrade rapidly and demand skilled handling, and using fixation approaches that capture only a partial transcriptome and cannot provide paired TCR sequences. Fresh PBMC isolation also requires complex workflows and specialized reagents. Evercode Whole Blood Fixation overcomes these limitations, preserving the comprehensiv
