Canaccord Biotech Meeting Takeaways Part II
Analyst, George Farmer, held a series of meeting with biotech management in San Francisco. Some highlights points from the meetings include:
NPS Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: NPSP)(BUY): NPSP management expects GATTEX NDA acceptance by mid-February. Consistent with company sentiment, we remain confident that FDA will accept the NDA for review, as the regulatory filing has received input from experienced regulatory consultants.
ONXX Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: ONXX)(BUY): We sense that management is resigned to the high possibility that the recently accepted NDA for carfilzomib marketing authorization in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma will receive an Approvable Letter by a July PDUFA date.
Trius Therapeutics (Nasdaq: TSRX)(BUY): We believe that positive results from the Phase III ‘112 trial evaluating tedizolid vs. standard-of-care linezolid significantly de-risk the outcome of the Phase III ‘113 trial evaluating IV-to-oral dosing transition.
Vical (Nasdaq: VICL)(BUY): Breakfast conversation with management indicates that the timeline for data read-out of the Phase III trial evaluating lead asset Allovectin-7 vs. chemotherapy for treatment of metastatic melanoma has been modified from Q2 to June.
