$ELN and $PFE had a setback on their Alzheimer's drug. This article talks about Elan as a takeover candidate.
But, I was thinking that drug companies in general are really going after these diseases. Other companies are going after MS, AIDS, cancer, Alzheimer's, etc. I hope they figure it out!
Meanwhile, the drugs for cholesterol, high blood pressure, and the like are pretty mature and successful.
So these companies need some big wins, right?
