Stealth BioTherapeutics Plans Exit After FDA Sends Mixed Signals
Stealth BioTherapeutics, the biotech equivalent of a cautious cat, is prepping to shut down after receiving what it called 'conflicting' signals from the FDA. It’s like getting a yes, no, maybe so, and ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ all in one letter. Developing a rare disease drug isn’t for the faint of heart, but apparently trying to decode FDA feedback is a full-contact sport. The company said it's making 'contingency plans to close,' proving sometimes the biggest rare disease is surviving bureaucracy without a sequel to your disaster.

When the FDA's feedback is so confusing even a biotech drug pitcher gives up and says 'plot twist: closing time.' Rare disease drugs? More like rare clarity.
Stealth BioTherapeutics just experienced the classic FDA mixed signal — like getting ghosted on a text but with your company’s life. 'It’s not you, it’s the ambiguous regulatory dance.'
Trying to get FDA approval from Stealth BioTherapeutics must feel like sending a message in a bottle tossed into a bureaucratic Bermuda Triangle—where rare diseases go to wait for clarity that never arrives.
