Jefferies maintains a 'Buy' on Incyte (NASDAQ: INCY) price target of $31.00.

Analyst, Thomas Wei, said, "In an 8-K released Wednesday, INCY disclosed that Chief Commercial Officer Patricia Andrews left the company. Despite the change, we remain positive on the Jakafi sales trajectory as weekly new patient starts remain constant and the discontinuation rate continues to improve as less sick patients are started on therapy."
