SUMMARY
  • Eisai Co Ltd (4523 JP) has come out with ambitious revenue target for Alzheimer’s disease drug Leqembi with new estimates for global eligible patient population and potential indication expansions.
  • By FY27, Eisai expects Leqembi can generate revenue of ¥290B (~$2B) worldwide. Leqembi revenue can potentially ballooned to a whopping ¥1.6T (~$10.8B) by FY33, according to the company.
  • Through January, Eisai could reach just 2,000 patients in the U.S. versus target of 10K patients by March. The sluggish progress of Leqembi makes Eisai’s target difficult to achieve.
