We begin with new data from WTW’s 2026 Global Medical Trends report, which projects U.S. healthcare costs to rise by 9.6% in 2026—remaining near historic highs and far above pre-pandemic levels. We then turn to the fast-moving intersection of medicine and artificial intelligence, as OpenAI unveils new ChatGPT products designed specifically for healthcare professionals and major medical institutions.
Regulatory news also takes center stage. The FDA has issued a Class II recall for certain prefilled Wegovy injections after hair-like particles were discovered in syringes, raising fresh questions about injectable drug manufacturing and quality oversight. Meanwhile, a groundbreaking fentanyl vaccine—shown to be effective in animal models—is set to enter its first human clinical trial in early 2026, offering a potential new tool in the fight against opioid overdose.
In oncology, the FDA has granted full approval to Rubraca (rucaparib) for BRCA-mutation–associated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, expanding treatment options for a high-risk patient population. Finally, we review a new Oxford University study showing that people who stop weight-loss medications may regain weight more rapidly than those who lose weight through diet and exercise alone—adding important nuance to the long-term debate over obesity treatment strategies.
