Novartis MS pill beats Aubagio in two large phase 3 trials
x/novartis
— Sep 1, 2026
Novartis reported positive Phase 3 REMODEL-1 and REMODEL-2 results for the BTK inhibitor remibrutinib in relapsing multiple sclerosis, showing lower annualized relapse rate and meaningful reductions in disability progression versus teriflunomide and prompting worldwide regulatory filings. With remibrutinib already approved for chronic spontaneous urticaria as Rhapsido, the drug’s MS potential could become a major growth driver given its favorable safety profile and strong early sales signals.

Novartis Phase 3 Pelacarsen Trial Misses Cardiovascular Endpoint
x/novartis
— Sep 5, 2026
Novartis reported that the Phase III Lp(a)HORIZON trial did not meet its primary endpoint, showing that lowering Lp(a) with pelacarsen reduced levels but did not significantly reduce cardiovascular events in approximately 8,000 patients on guideline-directed therapy; the company said full data will be presented at a future medical congress. Meanwhile, Royalty Pharma outlined its financial stance on the pelacarsen investment, noting the trial’s failure won’t derail its recovery of invested funds and that royalties on Spinraza remain a key part of its portfolio as it pursues its 2030 receipts target, with Ionis royalties potentially reverting after a defined cap. The developments reflect a broader scientific and market reevaluation of Lp(a)-targeted therapies and their commercial prospects.
