Jon,

The ELN news was very sad. I'd heard a lot of AD researchers were pretty excited about this program. I've heard a suggestion that it may be some sort of auto-immune reaction, in which case the drug is likely near dead. The fact that it occurred in only one subgroup does leave some lingering hope that there was some sort of fixable contamination. I suppose there's always the possibility that they could dose it with steroids, although that would complicate approval greatly.

My guess is that we may also be seeing some Enron fallout in ELN. ELN has always been a favorite of the shorts, and they probably seized on the confluence of Enron and this failure to attack the stock. Even though this was an early-stage project, it was one with enormous potential and a very high profile.
