A US drugmaker is 'hopeful' it can slow the decline caused by Alzheimer's disease

In an unexpected reversal, pharmaceutical giant Biogen said it will pursue US Food and Drug Administration approval for aducanumab, an experimental treatment for early Alzheimer's disease, Biogen and its Japanese partner Eisai announced on Tuesday.

Another promising Alzheimer's drug trial ends in failure: 'This one hurts'Phase 3 clinical studies of aducanumab were discontinued in March. The trials were halted because results of a futility analysis found they were unlikely to meet their primary goals at completion.On Tuesday, Biogen announced that a new analysis, which included more patients, showed a significant reduction in clinical decline in one trial.

The Alzheimer's Association applauded Biogen for pursuing regulatory approval for aducanumab.
