Technology, programs & evidence

Current disclosures include early drug product services at Longmont, including preformulation, FIH capsules and bottles, immediate-release, and enteric or extended-release products. The Mirabel/Whippany drug product businesses were sold in 2023, so their historical commercial network is excluded.

On 2023-11-02 the company announced completion of the sale of its Mirabel and Whippany drug product businesses. See current service pages for Longmont's early development capabilities.

The solid-state service page integrates screening with subsequent crystallization process development and identifies Edinburgh as a solid-form screening facility.

Peptide–oligonucleotide nanohybrids deliver miRNA to injured bone in rats

A Nature Communications study reports a peptide–oligonucleotide nanohybrid for bone-targeted miR-26a-5p delivery. The original abstract describes reduced GSK-3β expression and stabilization of HIF-1α, supporting coupled bone formation and angiogenesis. Systemic administration limited skeletal and vascular injury in a rat glucocorticoid-induced bone-loss model. This is preclinical miRNA delivery, not oral cyclic peptide therapy or human efficacy evidence.

U.S. Food and Drug Administration

FDA grants accelerated approval for subcutaneous amivantamab combination in selected head and neck cancers

FDA granted accelerated approval to amivantamab and hyaluronidase-lpuj for adults with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma after platinum chemotherapy and an anti-PD-(L)1 antibody. HPV-associated oropharyngeal cancer is excluded. In the 102-patient OrigAMI-4 efficacy population, response rate was 42%. Continued approval requires confirmatory clinical benefit; this is not traditional full approval.
