No­var­tis and Am­gen launch new Alzheimer's study

No­var­tis and Am­gen are ex­pand­ing their col­lab­o­ra­tion with the Ban­ner Alzheimer’s In­sti­tute, launch­ing a new study to as­sess whether their drug will slow the pro­gres­sion of Alzheimer’s dis­ease.

The study will look at No­var­tis’ $NVS BACE1 in­hibitor ther­a­py called CNP520 (joint­ly de­vel­oped with Am­gen $AMGN), to see if it can pre­vent or de­lay the on­set of Alzheimer’s in a high-risk pop­u­la­tion.
