Why Amylyx Pharmaceuticals Stock Is Bolting Higher Today

Amylyx Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: AMLX), a clinical-stage biopharma, is off to a good start this week. Amylyx's shares are responding positively to the news that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has decided to reconvene a panel of experts to discuss the pros and cons of the experimental amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) drug AMX0035. Earlier this year, this expert panel voted six to four against approving AMX0035 as a treatment for ALS.
