Brean Murray Carret & Co. maintains a 'Buy' on Keryx Biopharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: KERX) price target halved to $5.
Analyst, Jonathan Aschoff, said, "KERX announced top-line data for the Phase 3 X-PECT trial, where perifosine in combo with capecitabine failed to meet the primary endpoint in the treatment of coloretal cancer (CRC). Due to this outcome, KERX is also reevaluating the Phase 3 program of perifosine in relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma patients. Given the unfortunate outcome in CRC, our focus is now on the Phase 3 program for Zerenex...We continue to believe that Zerenex offers a great deal of value to patients and to shareholders with the share price down where it is at present."
Aschoff lowers FY12 loss from (0.44) to (0.47) and FY13 from (0.14) to (0.37)
