An em­bold­ened As­traZeneca splurges $95M on a pri­or­i­ty re­view vouch­er. Where do they need the FDA to hus­tle up?

As­traZeneca is in a hur­ry.

We learned this morn­ing that the phar­ma gi­ant — not known as a big spender, un­til re­cent­ly — forked over $95 mil­lion to get its hands on a pri­or­i­ty re­view vouch­er from So­bi, oth­er­wise known as Swedish Or­phan Biovit­rum.

That marks an­oth­er step down on price for a PRV, which al­lows the hold­er to slash 4 months off of any FDA re­view time.
