Needham & Company maintains a 'Buy' on Micromet (NASDAQ: MITI), PT $13.

Needham analyst says, "Recently, we attended the 2011 EHA Congress where blinatumomab data in r/r ALL were presented for the first time, and we subsequently toured Micromet’s Munich research facility. While we continued to be impressed by the high clinical activity of blinatumomab and believe a second pivotal trial in r/r ALL is on the horizon, we have increased appreciation of the deep science background and BiTE technology platform behind blinatumomab. Key take-ways from our trip included: 1) R/R ALL represents high unmet medical need and substantial market opportunity; 2) Blinatumomab has the potential to change the treatment paradigm in r/r ALL; 3) People and technology platform are the engine for growth; 4) Partnership – brand names now and more expected in the future; and 5) The upside is in the solid tumor space."
