January is historically the weakest month of the year for FDA approvals and 2021 is following that trend. With only nine approvals tracked by BioWorld during the month, it falls short of the 12 approvals during the same month in 2020, and it is the lowest amount in a single month since January of 2019, which also recorded nine.
BioWorld tracked a total of 295 phase I, II and III clinical news items in January, a rise of 39% compared with the number recorded during the pre-pandemic month of January 2020.
