BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBIO#NASDAQ">BBIO</a>) ("BridgeBio" or the "Company"), a new type of biopharmaceutical company focused on genetic diseases, announced that positive 18-month results from PROPEL 2, a Phase 2 trial of the investigational therapy infigratinib in children with achondroplasia, were published as an original research article in <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=W4AAI_tsT3lahBkwisE2WN9QSsLE3vuuOtWI_3Zzsn5btYiOI7IwxsmVMN15f8uIOENz9_6X_WewflcLzM0REa0Sui-OO3G1AyjJqepD4fMouEus7hLA9AxlbN0TTf_t5FN_CGlPsr6Ju25SI0VJcPgpsMF7RkcVnG5C6LDzLX-tGhFKgbIZQf3up_TKQfC_s8iWUyWQNGBvTUxQcNYBhLl3Ub1vMdJIzCxyoE9w1VE=">the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) today</a>. Infigratinib is an investigational oral small molecule designed to inhibit FGFR3 signaling and target achondroplasia at its source. These data, which were also presented today at the 62nd Annual European Society for Paediatric Endocrinology (ESPE) Meeting in Liverpool, demonstrate continued potential best-in-class efficacy and an encouraging safety profile as a first-in-class oral treatment option.
"Publication of results from PROPEL 2 in the New England Journal of Medicine and Breakthrough Therapy Designation of infigratinib by the FDA underscore the significance and importance of these data and the potential of this oral therapy to not only increase height, but more importantly, enhance functionality for children with achondroplasia," said Ravi Savarirayan, M.D., Ph.D., of Murdoch Children's Research Institute in Melbourne, Australia, the global lead investigator for PROPEL 2 and lead author of the NEJM publication.
Key results from the PROPEL 2 dataset were presented today at ESPE in a talk titled "Oral infigratinib for children with achondroplasia: Month 18 results from the PROPEL 2 study demonstrate safety and durability of treatment effect on linear growth with improved body proportionality" by Melita Irving, M.D., a clinical geneticist at Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, London, UK and investigator for the infigratinib clinical program at the Evelina London Children's Hospital. The key data that were shared included:
<ul>
<li>Statistically significant increase in annualized height velocity (AHV) was observed in children in Cohort 5 who received a daily dose of 0.25 mg/kg/ day of infigratinib), with a mean change from baseline in AHV of +2.50 cm/year (P=0.001) at Month 18</li>
<li>Mean change from baseline in height Z-score was +0.54 (P&lt;0.001) relative to an untreated achondroplasia population at Month 18</li>
<li>Statistically significant improvement in body proportionality (mean upper to lower body segment ratio) was -0.12 (P=0.001) at Month 18</li>
<li>Oral infigratinib was well tolerated at Month 18, with no serious adverse events (SAE) or treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) leading to treatment discontinuation
<ul>
<li>Additionally, there was no accelerated progression of bone age, negative changes in bone mineral density, or other bone-related adverse events observed &nbsp;</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
"We are encouraged to see no safety signals and no adverse changes in bone age or bone mineral density," said Dr. Irving. "These results point to the potential of infigratinib for children living with skeletal dysplasia, and we look forward to further evaluation of infigratinib in PROPEL 3, the ongoing Phase 3 trial, as well as in the Phase 2 portion of the ACCEL program in children with hypochondroplasia."
Infigratinib has received Breakthrough Therapy Designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) based on the shared results from the PROPEL 2 clinical trial, which meet the FDA's requirement of potentially demonstrating substantial improvement in efficacy over available therapies on clinically significant endpoints. In addition to receipt of Breakthrough Therapy Designation, infigratinib has also received Orphan Drug Designation, Fast Track Designation, and Rare Pediatric Disease Designation for achondroplasia from the FDA. If infigratinib is approved, BridgeBio may qualify for a Priority Review Voucher.

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) experienced a significant stock surge of 8.76% <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42028797/tesla-soars-over-5-in-overnight-trading-as-trump-administration-reportedly-seeks-to-ease-fsd-norms">following the news</a> that President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s transition team aims to prioritize the establishment of a framework for fully autonomous vehicles within the Transportation Department.
What Happened: As per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>, Tesla was trading at $346.71 at the time of writing while it closed at $320.72 on Friday.
Other companies in the autonomous vehicle sector, including Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>), and Lyft Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>), did not see similar stock gains. Alphabet&#8217;s self-driving unit, Waymo, competes directly with Tesla in the autonomous vehicle industry.
Meanwhile, Uber and Lyft, facing competition from both Waymo and Tesla in the ride-hailing market, saw their stocks decline by 1.16% and 0.77%, respectively. 
Additionally, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been appointed to lead the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under the Trump administration. Musk has previously shown support for federal regulations on autonomous vehicles, highlighting his intention to advocate for the nationwide deployment of self-driving cars during Tesla&#8217;s third-quarter earnings call.
Currently, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration restricts automakers to deploying 2,500 autonomous vehicles annually, with efforts to increase this cap having been unsuccessful thus far.

Why It Matters: The recent developments come on the heels of a significant milestone for Tesla&#8217;s Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology. Pierre Ferragu, a Wall Street analyst, noted that Tesla&#8217;s FSD completed a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42029753/teslas-fsd-hits-a-milestone-with-95-mile-unassisted-drive-from-manhattan-to-connecticut-analyst-pierre-ferragu-says-robotaxi-never-felt-that-close-ever-before">95-mile unassisted journey</a> from Manhattan to Connecticut, showcasing the company&#8217;s advancements in autonomous driving capabilities.
Furthermore, there is growing speculation about potential partnerships between Tesla and ride-hailing giants Uber and Lyft. Analysts Tom Narayan and Brad Erickson have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42015996/tesla-to-partner-with-lyft-uber-analyst-says-rising-conviction-for-partnership-in-future">expressed increasing confidence</a> in Tesla&#8217;s autonomous vehicle goals and its competitive advantages in manufacturing.
Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41424058/uber-ceo-dara-khosrowshahi-finds-elon-musks-robotaxi-vision-pretty-compelling-says-tesla-will-eventu">acknowledged Tesla&#8217;s potential </a>in the autonomous vehicle space, suggesting that Tesla could either become a rival or a partner, depending on future developments.

SpaceX COO Gwynne Shotwell on Friday criticized regulators for slowing down the pace of innovation at her rocket manufacturing company.
What Happened: &#8220;Permissions are a different thing. Technology is easy. Physics is easy. People are hard; regulator people are the hardest,&#8221; Shotwell said at a conference hosted by Baron Capital in New York on Friday. The CEO also alleged that regulations are slowing down innovation in the U.S.
&#8220;All we ask is: regulate industries. Make them safe, make them right, make them fair. But we've got to go faster. Much faster,&#8221; Shotwell said. 
In September, SpaceX said in a blog post that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40976555/elon-musk-shares-it-takes-multiple-fish-licenses-to-launch-a-rocket-i-dont-think-the-public-is-quite">delay in getting regulatory approvals </a>for the fifth test flight of its ambitious Starship, despite the launch vehicle being ready, is because the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is consulting with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife on the impact of the proposed flight on surrounding wildlife, among other reasons.
The Starship licensing process, the company then said, is being "derailed by issues ranging from the frivolous to the patently absurd."
Bureaucracy is rising and the regulatory red tape is affecting all large projects in America including Starship, company CEO Elon Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41422292/spacex-ceo-elon-musk-slams-overregulation-in-space-travel-as-he-campaigns-for-trump-if-starship-did">previously alleged. </a>
Why It Matters: President-elect Donald Trump has now named Elon Musk&nbsp;and former Republican presidential candidate&nbsp;Vivek Ramaswamy <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41965420/elon-musk-vivek-ramaswamy-led-department-of-government-efficiency-opens-account-on-x-says-it-is-working-overtime">to head the</a> Department of Government Efficiency aimed at bringing down government bureaucracy, slashing excess regulations, cutting waste expenditures, and restructuring federal agencies. 
Asked about the impact of Musk being named for the Department, Shotwell said, &#8220;I think the hope is, by the way, with this administration and this committee and probably others, I think everyone is starting to recognize in all industries that regulation really needs to be reinvented.&#8221;
She added that regulatory organizations and regulations both ought to be more efficient, faster, and better.

What Happened: In a recent post on X, Benioff expressed his admiration for the AI tool, praising its zero latency and labeling it the &#8220;future of consumer AI.&#8221; He also commended Google CEO Sundar Pichai for the innovation.

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff Lauds Google's 'Truly Groundbreaking' Gemini AI After Taking Jabs At Microsoft's Copilot

An Ohio-based operator of the darknet cryptocurrency mixer has been sentenced to a three-year prison term after being found guilty of laundering over $300 million in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>).
What Happened: According to the <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/operator-helix-darknet-cryptocurrency-mixer-sentenced-money-laundering-conspiracy-and">U.S. Department of Justice</a>, 41-year-old Larry Dean Harmon was the brains behind Helix, a darknet mixer that played a crucial role in laundering customers&#8217; Bitcoin from 2014 to 2017. The platform became a preferred choice for online drug dealers looking to hide the trail of their illegal earnings. 
The service processed about 354,468 Bitcoin, equivalent to around $311.14 million at the time of the transactions and more than $32.52 billion at current market rates

On Aug. 18, 2021, Harmon admitted to conspiracy to commit money laundering. Besides his prison term, Harmon was sentenced to three years of supervised release and ordered to forfeit over $400 million in seized cryptocurrencies, real estate, and other monetary assets.
Why It Matters: This case is part of a broader crackdown on darknet cryptocurrency mixers in recent years. 
In 2022, Tornado Cash, arguably the most popular of all cryptocurrency mixers, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/12/36190138/vivek-ramaswamy-thinks-penalizing-tornado-cash-mixer-was-illegal-and-unconstitutional">was blacklisted by the&nbsp;Department of Treasury,</a> making it illegal for U.S. citizens, residents, and companies to use.

Man Who Facilitated Bitcoin Laundering Worth Over $300M Sentenced To 3 Years In Prison

Spirit Airlines, Inc. ("Spirit" or the "Company") (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAVE#NYSE">SAVE</a>) today announced that it has entered into a restructuring support agreement (the "RSA") supported by a supermajority of Spirit's loyalty and convertible bondholders on the terms of a comprehensive balance sheet restructuring. The restructuring is expected to reduce Spirit's debt, provide increased financial flexibility, position Spirit for long-term success and accelerate investments providing Guests with enhanced travel experiences and greater value. &nbsp;
In connection with the RSA, Spirit has received backstopped commitments for a $350 million equity investment from existing bondholders and will complete a deleveraging transaction to equitize $795 million of funded debt. To implement the RSA, the Company has commenced a prearranged chapter 11 process in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the "Court"). Existing bondholders are also providing $300 million in debtor-in-possession ("DIP") financing, which, together with Spirit's available cash reserves and cash provided by operations, is expected to further support the Company through the chapter 11 process.&nbsp;
Spirit expects to continue operating its business in the normal course throughout this prearranged, streamlined chapter 11 process. Guests can continue to book and fly without interruption and can use all tickets, credits and loyalty points as normal. The chapter 11 process itself will not impact Team Member wages or benefits, which are continuing to be paid and honored for those employed by Spirit. Vendors, aircraft lessors and holders of secured aircraft indebtedness will continue to be paid in the ordinary course and will not be impaired.
"I am pleased we have reached an agreement with a supermajority of both our loyalty and convertible bondholders on a comprehensive recapitalization of the Company, which is a strong vote of confidence in Spirit and our long-term plan," said Ted Christie, Spirit's President and Chief Executive Officer. "This set of transactions will materially strengthen our balance sheet and position Spirit for the future while we continue executing on our strategic initiatives to transform our Guest experience, providing new enhanced travel options, greater value and increased flexibility. I'm extremely proud of the Spirit team's hard work and dedication, which is key to our sustained progress in advancing our business and delivering for our Guests."  &nbsp;
As part of the chapter 11 process, Spirit is filing a proposed Plan of Reorganization (the "Plan") that incorporates the agreed terms of the RSA and is subject to confirmation by the Court. The Company has received support from a supermajority of its loyalty and convertible bondholders and expects to emerge from a streamlined chapter 11 process in the first quarter of 2025.&nbsp;
In conjunction with the petition, Spirit has filed a series of first-day motions, which, once approved by the Court, will further facilitate the Company operating its business in the ordinary course during the streamlined chapter 11 process.  &nbsp;
As a result of the chapter 11 filing, Spirit expects to be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange in the near term. The Company expects that its common stock will continue to trade in the over-the-counter marketplace through the chapter 11 process. The shares are expected to be cancelled and have no value as part of Spirit's restructuring.&nbsp;
