Latest News - ADU won't be approved

Facts and data are the deciding factor, not emotion. The FDA report on Wednesday was choke full of inappropriate emotional narrative style writing as if they worked directly with the Biogen team. The AdComm panel destroyed the FDA for this. The head of Neurology at the FDA absolutely embarrassed himself multiple occasions yesterday acting like a shill for Biogen. Someone needs to check his family members work at an investment firm or heavily bought stock, it was that bad. There is no way the FDA can approve this after such a strong and emphatic NO from the Committee.

 

What was up with Biogen making offers on Friday to the Wave 2 people BEFORE the end of the day and knowing how the AdComm was going to vote??

 

*not knowing

 

Biogen's Alzheimer's drug to test FDA's reputation

 

Calling the Advisory Committee's verdicts a "near unanimous vote against aducanumab and strong commentary against the FDA's own analyses," Kasimov warns that "with the FDA's reputation already in a precarious position, it could be difficult -- maybe impossible -- to go against an expert panel at this time no matter how badly they want this."

 

FDA's Bill Dunn is planning on leaving FDA? His comments prior to the advisory committee meeting took Biogen to 15 Billion. Hmmmm

 

On Law & Order, they’d be looking at his checking account for recent large deposits.

 

Good bye !!!
Will there be a severance package??

 

This doesn't sound right. There are several other Alzheimer's drugs in the pipeline now so pushing this out without adequate evidence on both efficacy and safety would be scientifically very irresponsible. The most reasonable thing to do is proceed with a second phase 3 trial to ultimately prove the efficacy is reproducible or not.

 

Why is Biogen's leadership so super confident they are getting approval?

 

Desperation.

 

What is Biogen going to promote with no Adu? Interferon?

 

You would have to have Alzheimer’s to take this job now

 

I heard Biogen just bought Aspirin XL for 300 million dollars? FDA will fast track, Biogen strong!!

For the well being of ALL patients, just do the additional phase 3 trial It needs to be done and should not be approved until so.

 

Arrogance meets karma and she is a bitch! Too bad so sad

 

Talk about karma for the arrogant knuckleheads who dissed the good folks who got laid off in 2018 and 2015. A lot of these went to Adu. Karma is a bitch. Never diss anyone as we all can be in this situation and might need their help in future. For those who did the dissing learn this lesson!

 

This couldn’t have been played any worse. These people are embarrassing.

 

Alzheimer’s Association should reveal financial conflict of interest in urging FDA to approve Biogen drug, says Dr. Leslie Norins, CEO of Alzheimer’s Germ Quest
