SK Hynix is a South Korean company that makes microchips and now wants to make the packaging that goes around the chips in West Lafayette.

The drug’s failure is a major disappointment for ALS patients and advocates who pressed the FDA to approve it back in 2022.said Thursday it will pull the medicine from the market, acknowledging it didn't help patients with the deadly neurological condition.

“While this is a difficult moment for the ALS community, we reached this path forward in partnership with the stakeholders who will be impacted and in line with our steadfast commitment to people living with ALS," company co-founders said in a statement. Patients already taking the therapy who wish to continue will be able to enroll in a program to receive it for free.
