Vinay Prasad exits FDA's biologics division following pressure over Sarepta's Elevidys approval and regulatory controversies.

Sarepta Therapeutics shares snapped a three-day losing streak on Tuesday, as analysts said resumption of U.S. shipments for its muscular gene therapy soothes immediate concerns about liquidity and the therapy's withdrawal from the market.

In its own communique issued shortly after the FDA’s, Sarepta elaborated on the situation and confirmed a Roche statement to Bloomberg News that linked the probe to a fatality in Brazil and held that the death of the patient was unrelated to Elevidys itself.
