Jefferies maintains a 'Buy' on Neurocrine (NASDAQ: NBIX) price target of $13.00.

Analyst, Thomas Wei, said, "After recent mixed data from the Phase 2 study, we are incrementally encouraged by evidence of inconsistent AIMS scoring in two of five 50 mg dose patients at the center excluded from post-hoc analysis and by new measures in upcoming studies to ensure more robust scoring. Questions remain on the data, but we continue to believe the signal of efficacy warrants further development. 854 represents upside to our valuation."
