The latest announcement is out from Oncopeptides AB ( (SE:ONCO) ).

Oncopeptides has announced new research demonstrating that its multiple myeloma drug Pepaxti (melflufen) maintains strong anti-myeloma activity in patients with high-risk genetic abnormalities such as del(17p) and TP53 mutations, which are typically associated with more aggressive, treatment-resistant disease. The collaborative study from Finland, Germany and Sweden showed consistent in vitro activity across genetic subgroups, a mechanism of action that does not depend on functional TP53, and post-hoc clinical data from the phase 3 OCEAN trial indicating longer progression‑free survival versus pomalidomide-based therapy in del(17p) patients, bolstering the differentiation of Pepaxti and Oncopeptides’ PDC platform versus conventional alkylators and reinforcing the drug’s role in treating some of the most challenging myeloma cases, with potential to strengthen the company’s positioning among haematology specialists and investors.

The most recent analyst rating on (SE:ONCO) stock is a Hold with a SEK5.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Oncopeptides AB stock, see the SE:ONCO Stock Forecast page.
