Shares of Bristol Myers Squibb (BMY.N) fell sharply today, reaching a 5-day low following the announcement of the discontinuation of the Phase 3 Librexia ACS trial for milvexian, an investigational anticoagulant. The trial was halted due to an interim analysis indicating it was unlikely to meet its primary efficacy endpoint, although no new safety concerns were reported. This setback has raised concerns among investors about the future potential of milvexian, despite ongoing trials for other indications in the Librexia program. The stock's decline reflects broader market volatility in the healthcare sector, as rising short bets and mixed earnings reports continue to influence investor sentiment.
