Japanese drugmaker Eisai (TYO: 4523) announced today that the Scientific Advisory Group (SAG) will convene to discuss the marketing authorization application (MAA) of its Alzheimer’s disease drug Leqembi (lecanemab) which is currently under review by the European Medicines Agency (EMA).
The meeting of the SAG is expected to take place during FY2023, which ends on March 31, 2024, and news of the development saw Eisai’s shares edge up 1.3% to 7,671 yen by close of trading.
The SAG is convened at the request of the EMA’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) to provide independent advice on scientific or technical matters relating to products under evaluation by the CHMP, or on other scientific issues relevant to the work of the CHMP.
