Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Anacor Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ANAC) price target of $11.00.

Analyst, George Farmer, said, "We remain buyers of ANAC shares on our positive view of four mid- to late-stage novel oxaborole compounds positioned to address large derm/anti-infective markets."

"In coming months ,we expect MUSE and tolerability data from small routine Phase II bridging studies evaluating PDE4 inhibitor AN2728 in psoriasis and outcomes of a deeper analysis of positive Phase II trials evaluating AN2728 and AN2898 in atopic dermatitis (AD)...Less appreciated, in our view, is potential of GSK’052, a first-in-class LeuRS inhibitor that is highly potent against a broad range of lethal Gram neg microbes."
