Another possible setback for Biogen's controversial Alzheimer's drug.

On Wednesday, a European regulatory team opposed Aduhelm. The European Medicines Agency usually follows the recommendations of the expert group.

Aduhelm made headlines in June when U.S. regulators approved it as the first new treatment for this memory deprivation disease in nearly two decades, even though an independent regulatory team voted against it.

Aduhelm has been deeply involved in controversy. As hospitals and insurance companies are waiting for the US government to make a decision on the coverage of the drug, the use of this expensive drug in the United States has been slow. Some doctors said that clinical trial results are inconsistent and additional evidence is needed.

On Monday, Biogen said that the senior research director who led the development of the drug will leave the company.

Biogen's share price has fallen by about a quarter in the past three months, and the decline continued in early trading on Wednesday.
