JOHNSON AND JOHNSON'S
LICENSE REVOKED ON BABY POWDER CONCERNS
Reuters : Sat May 04 2013, 10:04 hrs
Health officials have revoked Johnson and Johnson's license to make cosmetics at a plant outside Mumbai after they discovered the company had used an unauthorized process for sterilizing its baby powder.
J and J said in a statement on Friday that it is in "ongoing discussions" with Indian regulators.
We understand their concerns and are diligently working with them to resolve the issue," Peggy Ballman, a J and J spokeswoman, said in a statement, adding that there were no consumer complaints or adverse events reported due to its use of the process.
An investigation by the Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration revealed that J and J, at its plant in Mulund, had used ethylene oxide - a substance used to produce industrial chemicals and to sterilize medical equipment - to kill bacteria in its baby powder and had not conducted mandatory tests to make sure there were no remaining traces in the powder.
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, acute exposure to ethylene oxide can cause lung damage, nausea, vomiting and cancer.
Ballman said the plant has not been shut down and the company is appealing the decision. She said the sterilization process in question was used on a one-time basis on a limited amount of baby powder. Baby powder is made from corn or talc and is usually sterilized using steam, she said.
"For a brief time in 2007, we used an alternative sterilization process," she said.
Ballman was unable to explain why the alternative process was used but said it is a "widely accepted and safe practice of sterilization used when making many medical devices and consumer products and leaves no harmful residue."
"However," she said, "the process was not registered with the local FDA and they viewed this step as out of compliance."
The news is the latest in a long list of quality control problems at J and J facilities. Its consumer healthcare division has, over the past few years, recalled millions of bottles of over-the-counter products such as Motrin and children's Tylenol.
JANSSEN AND JOHNSON
AND JOHNSON INNOVATION ANNOUNCE FIRST-OF-ITS-KIND INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE
RESEARCH ALLIANCE WITH THE ICAHN SCHOOL OF MEDICINE AT MOUNT SINAI
Industry and Academic Teams Converge to Focus on the Discovery of Next Generation Therapeutic Solutions for the More Than Five Million People Affected by Inflammatory Bowel Disease Worldwide
SPRING HOUSE, Pa. and CAMBRIDGE, Mass. June 27, 2013 – Janssen Biotech, Inc. (“Janssen”) and Johnson and Johnson Innovation announced today the establishment of a research alliance with The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (“Mount Sinai”) to advance the scientific understanding of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and the discovery of next generation therapeutic solutions. Scientists from the Janssen Immunology Therapeutic Area and researchers from Mount Sinai will work in partnership to investigate disease triggers, identify new opportunities for therapeutic interventions and establish diagnostics to facilitate precision medicine and predictive biomarkers. The first-of-its-kind industry and academic partnership brings together Janssen research and development capabilities with an early-stage life science investment through the Johnson and Johnson Innovation center in Boston and Mount Sinai’s expertise in computational biology, and clinical and translational research in IBD.
“The collaboration with Mount Sinai underscores a shared commitment to further understand inflammatory bowel disease biology and advance patient care through the discovery of novel therapeutic solutions,” said Miguel S. Barbosa, Ph.D., Vice President, Head of Immunology Research and Scientific Partnership Strategy, Janssen Research and Development, LLC. “By bringing together two excellent scientific teams with a shared long-term vision to improve the health of individuals living with IBD, we will harness the joint expertise and capabilities to deepen the scientific understanding of the disease and deliver future innovative medicines and co-diagnostics.”
“Research alliances such as these, managed by the team at Mount Sinai Innovation Partners, allow us to develop, patent, license, and translate laboratory breakthroughs into clinical applications,” said Dennis Charney, M.D., Anne and Joel Ehrenkranz Dean of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs of The Mount Sinai Medical Center. “The strength of Janssen for therapies in immune-related diseases is an ideal match for our own clinical and research expertise in inflammatory bowel disease.”
The collaboration will focus on building a Molecular Interaction Network of Disease (MIND) in IBD with the breadth and depth to yield high confidence therapeutic hypotheses to be tested in vitro and in vivo. Using preclinical models, clinical study data and patient samples, a dedicated group of Janssen and Mount Sinai researchers, computational biologists and translational medicine scientists will develop clinical methodologies to test hypotheses and identify potential therapeutic candidates.
This unique industry and academic research alliance brings together scientific and institutional resources from Mount Sinai, Janssen and Johnson and Johnson Innovation representing each organization’s deep commitment and investment in transforming the treatment of IBD. Detailed terms of the agreement are not being disclosed, but a successful collaboration may represent a multi-million dollar commitment each year over a four-year period in the pursuit of next generation therapeutic solutions for IBD.
“The research alliance with Mount Sinai is representative of the Johnson and Johnson Innovation strategy—catalyze early-stage innovation through a regional network of collaborators to advance breakthrough science into new healthcare solutions,” said Robert Urban, Ph.D., Head of the Johnson and Johnson Innovation center in Boston. “By connecting with leading experts who are based in universities, academic centers or biotechnology companies, we are eager to help these researchers bring their discoveries into the lives of patients suffering from high unmet medical needs, like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.”
As many as 1.4 million people in the United States and more than five million people worldwide are affected by IBD, chronic, immune-mediated digestive diseases that include Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis (UC).[1] The symptoms of Crohn’s disease and UC can be severe and progress to the need for surgical intervention. Although progress has been made in research and treatment over the years, researchers do not know what causes IBD.[2]

J AND J ANTI-FUNGAL
PILL DRAWS LIVER-DAMAGE WARNING FROM FDA (1)
July 26, 2013
Johnson and Johnson (JNJ:US)’s anti-fungal Nizoral tablets raise the risk of deadly liver injuries and harmful drug interactions and their use should be limited, regulators in the U.S. and European Union said.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said in a statement today that it changed the drug’s label to warn that Nizoral tablets shouldn’t be the first line of treatment for a fungal infection. The European Medicines Agency, meanwhile, said it was recommending a suspension of marketing for oral treatments containing ketoconazole, Nizoral’s main ingredient.
The risk of liver damage, including hepatitis, outweighs the drug’s benefits, the EU agency said, while the FDA said the medication can cause adrenal-gland problems as well as liver injuries that may be fatal or require a transplant. New Brunswick, New Jersey-based J and J, the world’s biggest maker (JNJ:US) of health-care products, hasn’t released sales figures for the tablet in recent financial statements.
Nizoral also comes in topical formulations, including creams, shampoos, foams, and gels applied to the skin, the FDA said. None of those have been associated with liver damage, adrenal problems, or drug interactions, the FDA said.
JandJ rose less than 1 percent to $92.83 at the close in New York. The shares have gained 32 percent (JNJ:US) this year.
J AND J AGREES TO PAY
$22.9 MILLION TO SETTLE ON DRUG RECALLS
Jul 18, 2013 7:17 AM GMT+0530
Johnson and Johnson (JNJ), the world’s largest maker of health-care products, agreed to pay $22.9 million to settle a lawsuit claiming it misled investors about quality-control failures that led to recalls, according to court papers.
The proposed settlement, filed July 15 in federal court in Trenton, New Jersey, would resolve claims that the failures led to the largest recall of over-the-counter children’s medicine in U.S. history, a plant closing and a congressional probe. The group, or class-action, accord still needs a judge’s approval.
The case focused on recalls of over-the-counter drugs made by J and J’s McNeil Consumer Healthcare division in Las Piedras, Puerto Rico, and Fort Washington, Pennsylvania. Investors claimed that J and J and its executives made misleading statements about details of the recalls and that they suffered stock losses after the true reasons for the recalls became public.
“The proposed settlement is a favorable recovery for the class especially when viewed in light of the significant risks posed by continued litigation,” according to the filing.
J and J will make no admission of wrongdoing, according to a joint filing by investors and the company.
“We maintain that the claims in this action are without merit, and settled this case in order to avoid the expense, distraction and time associated with continuing litigation,” Ernie Knewitz, a spokesman for New Brunswick, New Jersey-based J and J, said in an e-mail.
The settlement would cover buyers of J and J shares between Oct. 14, 2008, and July 21, 2010. It follows mediation by a retired judge, Daniel H. Weinstein, according to the filing.
Suit Dismissed
J and J claimed that investors were unable to prove the materiality of alleged misstatements and omissions or how they caused shares to drop, and that company executives acted in good faith. A judge’s ruling had meant “there was a great likelihood” that the class asserted “would have been substantially curtailed,” according to the filing.
U.S. District Judge Freda Wolfson previously dismissed a similar suit claiming that J and J directors ignored “red flags” foreshadowing product recalls and government probes of manufacturing defects and marketing practices.
Recalls dogged J and J for two years, led by the withdrawal of more than 40 brands of children’s Tylenol, Motrin and other medicines with foul odors or faulty ingredients. J and J shut one factory for an overhaul and signed a consent decree expanding U.S. oversight at three plants.
The case is Monk v. J and J, 10-cv-04841, U.S. District Court, District of New Jersey (Trenton).
