The story so far

Novo Nordisk's shares have taken a hit. The decline comes as the company's heart medicine failed a trial.

The failure is a result of the company's inflammation-targeting drug missing its mark in a heart disease study. According to Yahoo Finance, the update was provided on the ZEUS phase 3 trial in people with ASCVD, CKD and inflammation.

FirstWord Pharma notes that the failure is of key pipeline hopeful ziltivekimab in a CV outcomes study. The question now is what this means for Novo Nordisk's pipeline going forward
