Breaking: European drug regulator votes down Biogen’s controversial Alzheimer’s drug

Following an oral explanation held at the November meeting of the EMA’s human medicines committee, Biogen received ‘a negative trend vote’ on its marketing application for its controversial Alzheimer’s drug aducanumab, the company said Wednesday morning.

The setback is just the latest in a string of negatives — from an anemic launch to rejection of coverage from the VA — since the surprising June approval of the drug by the FDA that led to multiple resignations from an advisory committee that unanimously rejected it.
