Jefferies Positive On Dynavax (DVAX) and Heplisav

Jefferies reiterated their Buy and $4 price target on Dynavax Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: DVAX) following a presentation at the Jefferies 2011 Global Healthcare Conference.

The firm states, "We continue to believe Heplisav may become the preferred HBV vaccine for poor responders to current vaccines and to see diabetes as a major new opportunity not captured in the current valuation. We expect Heplisav approval in late 2012/early 2013, with a potential vote on the diabetes mandate as early as October. At our healthcare conference, DVAX management provided several positive clinical and regulatory updates on Heplisav."
