News

Latest AMGN news & analysis

Cholesterol drug setback casts doubt over multibillion-dollar race

CNBC · 8 Sept 2026negative

Novartis' experimental cholesterol drug pelacarsen failed to reduce cardiovascular events despite lowering levels of the harmful lipid Lp(a). This setback creates uncertainty for rival Lp(a) drugs being developed by Amgen and Eli Lilly.

Why it matters — An Amgen watcher would care because this failed trial from a competitor raises uncertainty around the prospects of Amgen's own rival Lp(a) drug in the same multibillion-dollar race.

Rep. David Taylor discloses 6 new Congressional stock trades

Finbold · 7 Sept 2026neutral

Rep. David J. Taylor, a Republican from Ohio, disclosed six new congressional stock trades, selling positions in biotech and technology companies while buying shares in a utility, a semiconductor firm, and a regional bank.

Why it matters — Because Taylor sold biotech holdings, an AMGN watcher may consider whether such congressional trading activity reflects on the broader biotech sector.

Zacks Investment Research · 7 Sept 2026neutral

Novartis' late-stage cardiovascular outcome study for pelacarsen failed to reduce cardiovascular events, raising doubts about the drug's prospects and highlighting broader portfolio challenges for the company.

Why it matters — An Amgen watcher may find this relevant as a competitor's cardiovascular drug setback could shift the competitive landscape in that therapeutic area, though no direct impact on Amgen is stated.

Amgen Shares Fall as Novartis' Pelacarsen Misses Phase III Study Goal

Zacks Investment Research · 7 Sept 2026negative

Amgen shares fell after Novartis' pelacarsen missed its Phase III study goal, according to Zacks Investment Research. The setback raised investor concern over whether Amgen's olpasiran can deliver positive Phase III outcome data.

Why it matters — Because olpasiran is an Amgen candidate, a competitor's Phase III failure casts doubt on the outlook for Amgen's own program.

Zacks Investment Research · 7 Sept 2026positive
