AstraZeneca PLC said Friday that Alexion is discontinuing the
Phase 3 trial of Ultomiris in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
following a recommendation by the Independent Data Monitoring

The drug giant said that the committee recommended the trial
stop due to lack of efficacy, adding that no new safety findings
were observed.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a rare disease that affects
motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord.
