The medicine was approved in Europe two years ago but its launch was delayed to for follow-up data. The company is seeks a retail price of 53,000 euros per vial, or 43,870 euros ex-factory. Other companies are looking for it's success rate in market. The drug consists of harmless modified virus as vector for corrective gene into the body's cells. The technocrats are easily available in Germany for R&D and production. There is a huge supply of concerned labor in Germany as it is hot spot for such inventions.
