    Wyeth's Alzheimer's Vaccine Could Become World's #1 Drug - Barron's [view article]
    cack211 -- very sorry about your loss. I indeed hope this, or something like it, is the breakthrough that so many are waiting for.

    Having said that, I don't think discussions of the therapeutic and commercial benefits of new medicines are mutually exclusive. If all the medicines waiting to be discovered were to have to wait for massive charitable donations alone before they were discovered, I daresay the wait would be a whole lot longer. The fact commercial interests can make big money from breakthrough medicines is no doubt an impetus for their discovery and development, and as such I think the discussion thereof is healthy and should be facilitated.

    My husband passed away a few weeks ago after years of wasting away from the effects of Alzheimer's Disease. Those who talk only about stock benefits and the business angle have never watched someone they love die a minute at a time, not understanding why they can't think, can't remember, can't concentrate. A drug that could potentially reverse some of that, and relieve the anguish for the patient and for the family - deserve to be the only story. The billions for Wyeth are nice, but how wonderful it will be for future patients to get some of their lives back! I would have given anything to have had this opportunity for my husband! Reply

    CAUTION: A just published study with dogs showed that removing their plaque still did not appreciably improve their mental performance. The neurons were still basically damaged and needed further repair. In other words, the plaque was just a band aid. See this website: www.eurekalert.org/pub... Reply

    I think this is real and very much worth the risk of getting long. Reply

    It's a shame that al the comments are about the potential stock price increase from the drug, where the real comments should be about the potential benefits to the people and the families suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Reply

    I'm feeling quite virtuous right now. Several years ago I bought some Elan shares precisely because they were working on Alzheimer's. At the time I thought that someone had to take some shares off the hands of the entrepreneurial investors in order that they could move on to financing another potential biotech biggie. The amount I put in was an amount I decided I could afford to lose--which is what I half expected to do.

    Here we are several years later and the Elan bet seems to be panning out. Whatta world we live in!     Reply

    Why are they delaying the announcement of the phase II studies until June? If they felt they had significant enough results to start a huge phase II program, shouldn't they have disclosed the basis for their decision? Reply

    I hope the results look good. I've had some ELN under water for some time.

    BTW: I'm VERY dubious about Prana; sounds too good to be true.     Reply
