Race For The Cure-Money Driven
According to an article on Bloomberg.com, the largest drug maker in Europe GlaxoSmithKline has entered into an arms race against Merck and Co. The winner hopes to receive the biggest share of the relatively lucrative cervical cancer market.
GlaxoSmithKline is currently conducting studies comparing their experimental vaccine (Cervrix) against Merck's already released drug, Gardasil. GlaxoSmithKline has stated the results of the study will be released whether they support their soon to be released medication or not.
