Angels for Change and Every Cure Announce ...

Angels for Change and Every Cure announced a collaboration aimed at strengthening patient access to repurposed medicines and advancing a more resilient, patient-centered healthcare system.

Angels for Change and Every Cure share a commitment to ensuring patients have access to the treatments they need– whether that means discovering and advancing new uses for existing medicines or ensuring those medicines are available when patients need them. By combining expertise in drug shortages, supply chain resilience, and drug repurposing, the partnership will support shared efforts to expand access to lifesaving therapies. Particularly for generic essential medicines that form the backbone of healthcare.

USP 2025 Annual Drug Shortage Report

The 2025 USP Drug Shortages Report has been released, and it highlights a troubling trend: discontinuations of essential, life-saving medicines continue to rise.

In 2025, drug product discontinuations increased by 60%, reaching the highest annual total in 5 years. Drug shortages are often driven by single points of failure; medicines that are manufactured at only one facility or place in the world. When products are discontinued, the market becomes even more concentrated, leaving patients with fewer treatment options and fewer backup sources when disruptions occur.

Mom Advocates for End to Drug shortage After Struggling to Find Medication for Daughter Diagnosed with Cancer

"This is a patient problem," said Bray. "This is a national problem. This is a global problem. The supply chain is very brittle. It breaks every day and there is no extra. And then what happens is, patients are prioritized, and some people get it and some people don't. And it's not always clear why."
