Mississauga, ON -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/29/2015 -- AllPennyStocks.com Media, Inc. (http://www.AllPennyStocks.com/) announces its latest article titled "Amarantus BioScience Requests Rare Pediatric Disease and Orphan Drug Designations from US FDA."
Companies mentioned in this article include iShares NASDAQ Biotechnology Index (ETF) (NASDAQ:IBB) and Amarantus BioScience Holdings Inc. (OTCQX:AMBS).
Article Excerpt:
The biotech sector is headed for a higher 2015 finish despite struggling in the second half of this year. The iShares NASDAQ Biotechnology Index (ETF) (NASDAQ:IBB) is up nearly 13% for 2015. But in the second half of 2015, the sector has fallen almost 5%.
The two main concerns investors have with the biotech sector are increasing scrutiny from politicians about the pricing strategy for drugs and high valuations. With the U.S. election in 2016, the pricing strategy of drug companies will come under further scrutiny. This is likely to keep the whole sector under pressure.
This morning, one biotechnology company came out with some important news. Amarantus BioScience Holdings Inc. (OTCQX:AMBS) is a biotechnology company focused on the development of products for Regenerative Medicine, Neurology and Orphan Diseases. The company today announced that it has requested Rare Pediatric Disease Designation (RPDD) and Orphan Drug Designation ('ODD) from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat GCMN with Engineered Skin Substitute (ESS).
