- Watch upcoming regulatory decisions, including cemdisiran in November 2026, Ordspono in February 2027 and Libtayo’s alternative dosing schedule in March 2027.
- Track growth in Dupixent, EYLEA HD and Libtayo against continued EYLEA declines; sustained growth in the expanding products would support the commercial trends reported this quarter.
