Morgan Stanley analyst Judah Frommer initiates coverage on Bicara Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ: BCAX) with a Overweight rating and a price target of $35.00.

The analyst comments: "We initiate coverage of BCAX with an OW rating and $35 price target. Bicara Therapeutics is a mid-clinical stage (soon to be late-stage) biotech with a validated bifunctional antibody (i.e., binds 2 antigens) approach to treating EGFR-expressing tumors. Its lead candidate, ficerafusp alfa (fifa), inhibits 2 clinically validated biological targets in cancer drug development, EGFR and TGF-ß. Fifa's dual-targeting mechanism may drive superior efficacy versus standard of care while addressing safety limitations of prior approaches. Fifa is being developed as a first-line treatment for recurrent/metastatic head & neck squamous cell carcinoma, a disease with poor prognosis and where anti-EGFR therapy is already approved."
