FDA setback leads women’s health biotech ObsEva to give up on uterine fibroids drug
ObsEva’s uterine fibroids drug linzagolix has hit a snag at the FDA, portending a likely delayed regulatory decision. Rather than stick it out and see if its small molecule can match up against commercialized products from AbbVie and Myovant, ObsEva plans to give up rights to the drug as part of a corporate restructuring.
