>>One is AN-1792, Elan's Alzheimer's immunotherapy that caused CNS inflammation in some patients. Development is not halted, at least not yet, but that one is dead in the water until they can find a way around that problem (say a subset). Not likely this year, if ever.>>

Elan has by no means given up yet. According to Dr. Tracy, Dale Schenk seems to have indicated that Elan is aiming to move another four (4!) Alzheimer's agents into the clinic this year. Of which Dr. Tracy is guessing that two will be back-up vaccines (and the other two beta-secretase inhibitors). That will most probably not have much effect on AGEN's overall revenue picture, but I though at least I should mention it.
