American Academy of Neurology Conference: April 18-25, Washington, D.C.
Biogen Inc (NASDAQ: BIIB)Investors will be watching Biogen for more data on its potential Alzheimer's drug BIIB037, although the critical data isn't expected until later in 2015. Investors are anxious to see if the drug will eventually penetrate the $20 billion-plus Alzheimer's market.
PTC Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: PTCT)
PTC is expected to present data on its drug RG7800, a potential treatment for muscular atrophy. PTC and partner Rocke are hoping that the drug, which is taken orally, can provide a better treatment alternative than Isis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ISIS) and Biogen's potential treatment, which is injected into patients' spinal fluid.
Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALNY)
Alnylam and Isis are both developing potential treatments for TTR amyloidosis, and updates on these medicines will likely be included in the companies' presentations.
