Biogen
chief medical officer
Maha Radhakrishnan
is out after four years “as of March 1,” a spokesperson tells Peer Review. Biogen didn’t draw up a press release for her departure, but
a board appointment
at NYSE newcomer
Alto Neuroscience
was the first indication that Radhakrishnan decided to leave. In her second time around at the big biotech, the Alzheimer’s drug
Aduhelm
flamed out, while the
Eisai
-partnered follow-up
Leqembi
earned a full FDA approval as
Eli Lilly
waits on the sidelines with
donanemab
. From 2013-16, Radhakrishnan was Biogen’s VP, US medical and VP, Europe and Canada medical before her tenure at
Bioverativ
and
Sanofi
. “Maha made many important contributions to Biogen and the patients we serve — most notably establishing our framework for early patient access, enabling many patients to benefit from important and potentially lifesaving new therapies globally,” a Biogen spokesperson said.
