The increased supply of the lowest dose aims to address previous restrictions that prevented new patients from beginning treatment.

Oil prices fell as profit-taking and expectations of supply increases by Russia and Saudi Arabia outweighed forecasts of positive demand from China during its Golden Week holiday. Brent November futures were down 21 cents to $95.17 per barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude (WTI) fell 8 cents to $91.63 per barrel.

Recent macroeconomic data and China's Golden Week holiday were supportive for global oil demand.
