ould changing up regulatory requirements for Alzheimer’s drugs help give desperate patients new options for treatment?

Obviously Klunk never worked in pharma. 30 years of experience has taught me that getting marginally efficacious drugs approved, then charging obscenely high prices before it is concluded that your drug is a dud is a good business model, because everybody who made their six figure bonuses along the way will be long gone by the time the poo hits the fan.
