| By Angus Liu Eisai and Biogen have trotted out data for a subcutaneous version of the Alzheimer’s disease drug Leqembi. The self-injected version showed an encouraging efficacy result but a seemingly increased risk of ARIA, which analysts said shouldn't be too much of a concern. |

By Andrea Park Thermo Fisher's full-year outlook now stands at $42.7 billion, about $1 billion less than the previous quarter’s forecasts, which placed revenues between $43.4 billion and $44 billion—a range that was in turn another billion-plus below the year’s original prediction of $45.3 billion. |
By Annalee Armstrong,Max Bayer Even with $401 million in the bank—thanks to one of the year’s largest biotech fundraisings—ElevateBio is still shaving off some pre-clinical work resulting in layoffs that will affect 13% of the workforce. |
By Max Bayer Much of the fervor around Merck & Co.’s work with antibody-drug conjugates has centered on partnerships, namely the most recent $4 billion collaboration announced last week with Daichii Sankyo. |
By Andrea Park The long-planned spinout of 3M’s healthcare business is still set to be completed in the near future, albeit somewhat later than originally expected, according to a company update. |
By Fraiser Kansteiner On outgoing chief executive Giovanni Caforio’s last earnings call, Bristol Myers Squibb had some tough questions to answer about a roster of underperforming new products. But according to CEO-elect Chris Boerner, it’s a question of “when, not if” those drugs rise to meet expectations. |
By Conor Hale The company described the trial as the first in the U.S. to examine the use of a drug-coated balloon to clear coronary stents that have become obstructed over time. |
By Kevin Dunleavy It’s been grounded in Europe and reduced to irrelevancy in the U.S., but Merck’s COVID-19 pill Lagevrio somehow remains a force. The antiviral treatment racked up sales of $640 million in the third quarter, shocking analysts who figured it would generate $120 million. As a result, Merck has jacked up its 2023 revenue forecast. |
By Nick Paul Taylor The race is on. Again. Having already gone up against Moderna in COVID-19 and influenza, Pfizer and BioNTech have now followed their recurring rival in reporting early-phase data on a mRNA combination vaccine against both pathogens—and in outlining plans to start a pivotal trial. |
By Zoey Becker The write-downs were attributed to stem cell Alofisel's recent flunk in a phase 3 trial in Crohn's disease fistulas, plus the withdrawal of cancer med Exkivity worldwide. Takeda also cut its profit forecast for the year by a sizable amount. |
