The therapy, which targets the OGA chemical, did not spark a modification in standard to endpoint attend a ranking scale of Alzheimer's extent in either dose tested." While this adverse end result was disappointing, our company continue to be fully commited to touch as a high principle intended in Alzheimer's illness and also strategy to carry on studying tau the field of biology," Skovronsky mentioned, speaking on a second-quarter earnings call Thursday.
