BioCentury This Week

The neurodegeneration field had two big wins with even bigger implications for the future of Alzheimer’s disease and ALSs, Executive Editor Selina Koch says on the latest episode of BioCentury This Week. Koch lays out the importance of the positive Phase III data for lecanemab in Alzheimer’s and the coming debate over access to the therapy, while also noting the potential for read-through to other neurodegenerative diseases from FDA’s approval of Amylyx's ALS drug Relyvrio. BioCentury’s editorial team also discusses mounting pressure on the Biden administration to curb outbound investments from the U.S. into China and the work of biopharma non-profit Life Science Cares.
