Six biologics to be fast tracked from MedImmune (AZ owned) through a separate company – Viela Bio

Inflammatory and auto-immune (incl neuromyelitis) – all rare diseases

J&J situation with Actelion buyout where Idorsia was created to run early phase candidates wasn’t J&J decision the owner of Actelion kept them as part of deal!
