    My concern (alluded to yesterday) was that Baker Bros/Acadia might be taking advantage of current circumstances (NEU share price being battered by the Coronavirus market rout and the Acadia decision to pause the Phase 3 trofinetide in Rett trial) to grab a blocking stake in the company and perhaps a Board presence.

    Firstly, from an ethical perspective, it wouldn’t sit well with me if Acadia made such a move directly after pausing the trofinetide trial but none of its own trials of pimavanserin.

    In addition, I would have concerns that, for an investment of just US$8.5m, Baker Bros/Acadia could in future (improved) times, control Neuren’s deal options.

    In short, I’m relieved that there is no evidence that our trofinetide partner is engaging in what I would view as predatory behaviour.
