Yun Zhong’s rating is based on the competitive advantage that Ascendis Pharma’s Yorvipath holds in the treatment of hypoparathyroidism. The feedback from a key opinion leader (KOL) highlighted that Yorvipath maintains a superior clinical profile compared to its competitors, particularly in terms of managing serum calcium levels effectively.
Additionally, the KOL pointed out that the quality-of-life improvements associated with Yorvipath are a significant indicator of its efficacy, which is a critical factor now required by the FDA. The absence of such data from MBX Biosciences’ Phase 2 study further underscores Yorvipath’s competitive edge. These factors collectively contribute to Yun Zhong’s confidence in recommending a Buy rating for Ascendis Pharma’s stock.

Zhong covers the Healthcare sector, focusing on stocks such as MannKind, Ascendis Pharma, and Protagonist Therapeutics. According to TipRanks, Zhong has an average return of -11.6% and a 43.23% success rate on recommended stocks.

In another report released today, Bank of America Securities also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $230.00 price target.
