The neuroscience portfolio showed robust 20.3% growth, highlighting AbbVie’s expanding presence in this therapeutic area. While the oncology portfolio experienced a slight 1.5% decline overall, newer assets like Elahere (+33.1%) and Venclexta (+11.6%) demonstrated strong growth, partially offsetting the decline in Imbruvica.
