Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on AVEO Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: AVEO) price target of $28.00.

Canaccord analyst says, "We see 2012 as a critical year for the company given major randomized clinical trial readouts and potential NDA filing of lead drug, tivozanib."

"Key drivers: Tivozanib in renal cell carcinoma and ficlatuzumab in non-small cell lung cancer...Phase III top-line results from TIVO-1 evaluating tivozanib as treatment for renal cell carcinoma... Management reiterated that all of the TIVO-1 events required for unblinding the trial should occur in Q4/11 at the earliest. We expect top-line data in Q1/12...Randomized Phase II data from a non-small cell lung cancer trial evaluating ficlatuzumab...Ficlatuzumab production arrangements for Phase III will be finalized later this year following further analysis of the open-label Phase II."
