“We’re proud to have helped bring high-quality coverage of the Paralympics to a UK audience of over 20 million. By harnessing ADVA’s edge Ethernet equipment, we were able to maintain superb network uptime and ensure an exceptional viewer experience,” said Tim Horsfield, director, BMC TV. “We were very impressed with how straightforward ADVA’s solution was to deploy. It also simplifies operations by using established OAM procedures, while its fanless design and low power consumption help to minimize carbon footprint. What’s more, ADVA’s team was always on hand to lend their support and expertise.”
Using the ADVA FSP 150-XG108 Series of Layer 2 service demarcation and aggregation devices, BMC TV was able to provide highly reliable and cost-effective broadcast services. This allowed Channel 4, one of Britain’s biggest television networks, to deliver a rich and immersive viewing experience with every sport at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games covered live and in full. The ADVA FSP 150-XG108 Series enabled BMC TV to efficiently aggregate 1Gbit/s services into 10Gbit/s wavelengths. With its small footprint, redundant power supply and hardware-assisted synchronization, the solution is optimized for cost-sensitive high-bandwidth edge applications.
“The Tokyo Paralympics entertained and inspired millions of viewers. That’s why enabling BMC TV to transmit comprehensive coverage of the games was so rewarding for our team. Our technology and support were key to making this project a major success,” commented Hartmut Müller-Leitloff, SVP, sales, EMEA, ADVA. “Our solution offers advanced demarcation and aggregation capabilities alongside a rich feature set, including hardware-assisted synchronization and zero-touch provisioning for quick and easy service activation. Once again, our FSP 150 technology has shown itself to be in a class of its own for fast and seamless deployment of cost-sensitive Carrier Ethernet services.”

Alnylam to Present New Analyses at Heart Failure 2026 Underscoring Consistent Clinical Profile of Vutrisiran in ATTR-CM4.5.2026 14:30:00 CEST | Press release
Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALNY), the leading RNAi therapeutics company, today announced it will present new data analyses for vutrisiran in patients with the cardiomyopathy of wild-type or hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (ATTR-CM) at Heart Failure 2026, a scientific congress of the European Society of Cardiology, taking place May 9-12, 2026, in Barcelona, Spain. ATTR-CM is a heterogeneous and rapidly progressive disease, and patients often present with complex clinical profiles. At Heart Failure 2026, Alnylam will present multiple new analyses from the Phase 3 HELIOS-B study of vutrisiran, which continue to support its use as a first-line treatment for patients with ATTR-CM, and further characterize its clinical profile across patients with a high disease burden, and in the context of concomitant therapies. Vutrisiran is the first and only transthyretin (TTR) silencer for ATTR-CM that delivers rapid knockdown of TTR at the source. Additional analyses being pr
Takeda Announces Positive Topline Results from Pivotal Phase 2/3 Clinical Trial of TAK-881 in Primary Immunodeficiency Disease (PID)4.5.2026 14:00:00 CEST | Press release
Investigational TAK-881 was comparable to established HYQVIA while also demonstrating reduced infusion volume and duration for PID patients Takeda (TSE:4502/NYSE:TAK) today announced that TAK-881-3001, a pivotal Phase 2/3 clinical trial in patients with Primary Immunodeficiency Disease (PID), met its primary endpoint, which demonstrated pharmacokinetic (PK) comparability between the investigational TAK-881 [Immune Globulin Subcutaneous (Human), 20% Solution (SCIG 20%) with Recombinant Human Hyaluronidase] and HYQVIA [Immune Globulin Infusion (Human) 10% with Recombinant Human Hyaluronidase]. Additionally, secondary endpoints showed that TAK-881, a SCIG 20% facilitated with hyaluronidase, demonstrated safety, efficacy and tolerability profiles comparable to HYQVIA, an established SCIG 10% facilitated with hyaluronidase. These findings support the potential of TAK-881 to deliver the required immunoglobulin (IG) dose for PID patients in half the volume of HYQVIA, reducing infusion duratio
