Большой и богатый Новартис очень надеялся — после серии неуспехов — на свое новое лекарство от сердечной недостаточности.

Few drugs in Novartis’ ($NVS) pipeline loom larger than LCZ696, a heart failure med that has singlehandedly saved the pharma giant’s cardio drug development strategy from the embarrassing setback triggered by serelaxin’s big flop on the regulatory front. So now that a group of researchers are suggesting that the drug could—as in maybe, conceivably but certainly not for sure—be linked to accelerating Alzheimer’s, the new research is getting some very careful scrutiny.
