Immune Pharma (IMNP): Celator Acquisition Highlights Ceplene's Value in AML

FBR Capital analyst, Vernon Bernardino, thinks that Immune Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: IMNP) is currently undervalued when considering the collective value of its clinical-stage assets. Following Jazz Pharmaceuticals' (JAZZ) recent announcement of its $1.5B acquisition of Celator Pharmaceuticals (CPXX) for Vyxeos, the latter's Phase III stage product candidate for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The analyst thinks Ceplene, an IMNP asset already approved in the EU and Israel as a treatment for maintenance of complete response (CR) in patients with AML, alone is undervalued.
