Too much at stake for dismissed ACIP members to go quietly

The 17 members abruptly terminated June 9 from the U.S. CDC’s Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP) are not going gently into the night. Instead, they’re raging against what could be the dying of the light. The 17 raised their collective voices in a June 16 JAMA opinion piece to decry what’s at stake with Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy’s efforts, in his words, to “reestablish public confidence in vaccine science” by cleansing ACIP of what he claimed were conflicts due to members’ financial ties to industry.

June 10, 2025
By Mari Serebrov
No Comments
Despite the June 9 gutting of the U.S. CDC’s Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices, the Department of Health and Human Services said the committee’s June 25-27 meeting will continue as scheduled. But a new panel has yet to be named, and typically ACIP members have a lot of behind-the-scenes work to do before a meeting.

Regulatory, financial hurdles the gap between science and access

Children with solid tumors who relapse are being treated with the same chemotherapy they would have been given 40 years ago, as “there have been no major approvals for pediatric solid tumors,” Catherine Bollard, senior vice president and chief research officer at Children’s National Hospital, said at a June 5 FDA roundtable on cell and gene therapies (CGTs). The problem isn’t the science. Bollard said many groups are working on curative CGTs “for these children who have lost all other hope for survival.” The real gap is that “big pharma doesn’t see the business model because it’s a rare disease,” she added.
