Jefferies maintains a 'Buy' on Synta Pharma. (NASDAQ: SNTA) price target of $14.00.

Analyst, Thomas Wei, said, "The two promising GALAXY subgroups alluded to in May were high LDH and adenocarcinoma, not mKRAS. The adenocarcinoma overall survival data appear compelling, while we see mKRAS data as too early to be definitive. Separately, we believe ganetespib will not be developed further in squamous likely due to bleeding. The similarity to the Avastin profile suggests this issue may be isolated to squamous histology. We remain buyers on weakness."
