AbbVie CEO says it won't compete w/ Gilead on price in hep C.
Actually, ABBV’s CEO, Rick Gonzalez, didn’t say that ABBV wouldn’t complete with GILD on price. Rather, Gonzalez said that ABBV’s 3-DAA HCV regimen was very well positioned for the marketplace, particularly with respect to cirrhotic and treatment-experienced patients, where ABBV’s data are somewhat more convincing than GILD’s in terms of SVR12 confidence intervals.
“The efficient-market hypothesis may be the foremost piece of B.S. ever promulgated in any area of human knowledge!”
