Why Athira Pharma Stock Imploded Today
Athira Pharma's (NASDAQ: ATHA) stock crumbled by more than 69.5% as of 10:04 a.m. ET Wednesday after the company reported that results from a phase 2 clinical trial for its drug treating mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease didn't reach statistical significance. The phase 2 failure bodes poorly for Athira's future, as it still has an ongoing phase 3 trial for fosgonimeton in Alzheimer's disease that's due to finish enrollment by the end of the third quarter.
