My stepdaughter works for BIIB. She told me about the BIIB Tysabri story.
Ninhp32809 predicted ARIA would be the next BIIB. Accurate, isn't? BIIB's Tysabri was withdrawn and returned. Ariad's Iclusig was withrawn and has returned now.
Iclusig is to ARIA what Tysabri to BIIB. ARIA with Iclusig has to undergo what BIIB with Tysabri has undergone. BIIB is almost $300 now.
In addition to Iclusig, Ariad has another lifesaving drug AP26113 for lung cancer patients. Ariad has a great lab that is working on still another molecule which will be announced next year as a best-in-class cancer drug targeting solid tumor.
My stepdaughter was an Ariad employee in 1998 and 1999. Dr. Harvey Berger asked his employees to work hard to build Ariad into the next Amgen.
Dr. Berger's goal is on track despite the painful setback or conspired takedown. Ariad will become the next BIIB or the next AMGN, I believe
viel glück und viel segen auf all meinen wegen;)
