Voraxaze, vosoritide and TransCon hGH are among the latest products that have been submitted to the European Medicines Agency for review for potential pan-EU marketing approval.

Poseida, Nkarta and Inventiva raised $224m, $252m and $107.7m, respectively. Also, Forbion raised €185m ($208m) of a new €250m fund and Blackstone closed the last $1.2bn of its $4.6bn fund for public and private company deals, and Ascendis led recent follow-ons with a $569.2m offering.

Aspen Neuroscience, Pandion and iTeos raised $70m, $80m and $125m, respectively. Also, Glide Healthcare closed a €416m ($450m) fund; ElevateBio, Kallyope and SutroVax reveal VC mega-rounds; and Dragonfly adds new funding to its partnering proceeds. 

R&D president Hank Fuchs said vosoritide can be filed based on height gains for children and safety in babies and toddlers with the most common form of dwarfism, but timing depends on meetings with regulators.
