Biotech C4 raids NI­BR for new CMO; EU reg­u­la­tors green­light Hem­li­bra ex­pand­ed la­bel

C4 Ther­a­peu­tics has raid­ed the No­var­tis In­sti­tutes of Bio­med­ical Re­search for its chief med­ical of­fi­cer. The biotech re­port­ed to­day that it’s hired on Adam Crys­tal for the spot, fol­low­ing a stint as a se­nior di­rec­tor at NI­BR. C4 is one of sev­er­al biotechs work­ing on pro­tein de­graders, which has al­so been a keen in­ter­est of NI­BR chief Jay Brad­ner. “Dr. Crys­tal’s deep un­der­stand­ing of the sci­ence of tar­get­ed pro­tein degra­da­tion, cou­pled to his proven clin­i­cal lead­er­ship and un­der­stand­ing of the pa­tient com­mu­ni­ty, will be in­stru­men­tal to ad­vanc­ing C4T’s pipeline,” said Andy Phillips, the CEO of C4.
