Sam Slutsky has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors related to Abivax’s potential in the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) market. The company’s lead asset, obefazimod, is in Phase 3 trials for moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis, and positive results could significantly enhance its valuation. The pharmaceutical industry’s interest in IBD treatments, particularly those involving new mechanisms of action and oral agents, underscores the potential for substantial market opportunities.
Recent mergers and acquisitions in the IBD space, such as AbbVie’s multiple deals and Eli Lilly’s acquisition of Morphic Therapeutics, highlight the competitive landscape and the high value placed on promising assets. These trends suggest that if Abivax’s Phase 3 data are positive, the company could see a multi-fold increase in value, making it an attractive investment opportunity. The analysis of past deals and the current market dynamics support the Buy rating for Abivax’s stock.
