Thanks Harry for the input on ALXA. I guess we will get a better understanding Monday when they announce Phase II results.

Well their migraine results turned out to be decent - pretty comparable to monotherapy triptans (but worse then POZN's Trexima combo).

But if this is really intended as a rescue medication, shouldn't they be studying it in that context? If it's intended as first-line, then they face the same safety concerns on TD as POZN's earlier drug did; if it's intended as rescue then that's a much tougher enrollment/efficacy hurdle than this trial.
