FiercePharma- Eisai's Leqembi launch tripped up on a host of challenges


<



“It wasn’t supposed to be like this: Eisai and Biogen’s new Alzheimer’s disease drug Leqembi was supposed to be the chosen one after the flop that was Biogen and Eisai’s Aduhelm, but neurologists are voicing “frustration” at core elements of the therapy’s rollout.

That’s according to a stark new report out by life sciences consultants at Spherix that delved down into insights from 75 high-prescribing U.S. neurologists that work with Alzheimer’s patients.

The picture painted by them is bleak: Now around six months after the launch of Leqembi, “few surveyed neurologists consider Leqembi to be a significant medical advance over other historical AD treatments,” Spherix’s analysis found.”

the sales reps suck. No skills on process. Lack of thoughtfulness for the entire treatment staff. Not surprising at all. This company can’t roll out anything .
 




















Eisai is a cluster. Oncology imploding and neuroscience has so many misfits. Your sales teams are awful. No one willing to try or even listen. It’s just a matter of time.
