I'm troubled by the AZ data. If the entire 300 patient study reveals similar results, that is patients whom generated ab were protected from further cognitive loss, then I can not understand why Wyeth-Elan are not pressing forward with AN-1792. A severe 2% side-effect with a disease that permanently destroys the mind is totally acceptable. CAncer patients take drugs with higher side-effect profiles and with less effect on disease progression. AN-1792 was in Phase II and should go to phase III, if these results hold. The so-called new vaccine and MoAB are years behind, even if they started Phase I now.
