In this article BIIB Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT A Biogen facility in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Brian Snyder | Reuters Biogen plans to advance an experimental drug for Alzheimer's disease to late-stage testing despite disappointing mid-stage trial data, the company said Thursday. Biogen said its experimental drug that targets tau, a protein associated with the memory-robbing disease, failed to show better responses at higher doses. Nonetheless, Biogen plans to move it into Phase 3 testing because of signals suggesting the treatment decreases levels of tau and slows cognitive decline, particularly at the lowest dose. Dr. Priya Singhal, Biogen's head of development, said the results are compelling. "We're really excited that we've been able to demonstrate an unprecedented combination of tau reduction in pathology and the cognitive benefit and have been really getting close to isolating a dose," she said. "Those are the three requirements you need to go to Phase 3." The results mark the latest example of Biogen's uneven journey to develop drugs for Alzheimer's. Biogen for years has been researching the brain disease. It's brought two drugs to market designed to slow cognitive decline, though it pulled its first drug, Aduhelm, after it couldn't overcome controversy surrounding its approval. Both Aduhelm and Biogen's other Alzheimer's drug Leqembi remove a protein associated with Alzheimer's called amyloid from the brain. Its latest experimental drug Diranersen is an antisense oligonucleotide that limits production of another protein called tau. Rival Eli Lilly is also studying drugs that seek to decrease levels of tau. Choose CNBC as your preferred source on Google and never miss a moment from the most trusted name in business news.

Jeremy Edwards Michael Kantrowitz, chief investment strategist at Piper Sandler, expects interest rates to decline over the next three months despite recent hotter inflation readings. In an interview with CNBC, Kantrowitz pointed to slowing oil and gasoline price changes, declining effective tariff rates, and rent as a drag on inflation as factors that could push rates lower. The strategist explained why equity markets continue to power higher even amid inflation concerns. “The earnings have been the strongest and the broadest earnings we’ve seen in five years,” Kantrowitz said, noting that small-cap earnings revisions last month were the strongest in five years. When asked about consumer resilience, Kantrowitz emphasized the importance of the labor market. “The consumer is fine if that’s how we’re defining it,” he said. “The labor market is really the most important thing. And as long as income continues, which it is, the consumer, again, in aggregate, will be fine.” He characterized negative consumer sentiment data as consumers being “ticked off that gasoline prices are higher” rather than a reflection of actual demand. Kantrowitz also highlighted an ongoing manufacturing PMI recovery driven by AI and capital expenditure. He noted that while the economy is consumer-heavy, the industrial cycle is currently driving the market story rather than consumer spending. For investors looking at beaten-down consumer stocks like McDonald’s, Nike, and Lululemon, Kantrowitz sees a contrarian opportunity. “If you look at the XRT, the retail ETF, it looks just like the TLT,” he said. “And so if we stop seeing interest rates rise, I think that’s the best contrarian opportunity over the next three to six months.” The strategist remains confident in his rate outlook. “I don’t think yields are gonna be higher in three months from now. I think they’ll actually be lower,” Kantrowitz concluded. More on United States 10-Year Bond Yield, United States 2-Year Bond Yield, etc. Treasury Prem...
