Sanofi announced the acquisition of Vigil Neuroscience to expand its portfolio of neurology treatments, particularly for Alzheimer's disease. This acquisition includes VG-3927, an investigational drug currently in clinical trials. VG-3927 aims to improve neuroprotective function in Alzheimer's disease by activating TREM2, which could offer new treatment options for these patients.

The $470 million deal will allow Sanofi to own all of Vigil's shares and includes a conditional earn-out payment. The companies expect to close the acquisition by the third quarter of 2025.
