Another example why investing in one-trick pony is extremely risky.

Dermira Reminds Investors What Binary Means in Biotech

The downside of relying on one drug is often likelier and harsher than expected.

The word "binary" brings to mind a coin flip. But in biotech, the coin is often weighted unfavorably.

The latest example is Dermira Inc., which announced Monday that its heavily hyped acne drug had failed two final-stage trials. The drug flopped so thoroughly the company is giving up on it altogether.
