Serge Belanger has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors surrounding MoonLake Immunotherapeutics’ promising developments. The company is conducting Phase 3 VELA trials for sonelokimab, targeting moderate-to-severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). These trials are expected to deliver results that meet or exceed key endpoints, based on the successful outcomes of previous Phase 2 trials.
The anticipated efficacy, coupled with the drug’s convenient dosing schedule, rapid onset of action, and favorable safety profile, positions sonelokimab as a potential leader in HS treatment. Additionally, the drug’s comprehensive label, which includes adolescent patients, enhances its market appeal. These factors, along with the potential for significant stock appreciation and increased merger and acquisition interest, underpin Belanger’s positive outlook on MoonLake Immunotherapeutics.
Based on the recent corporate insider activity of 8 insiders, corporate insider sentiment is negative on the stock. This means that over the past quarter there has been an increase of insiders selling their shares of MLTX in relation to earlier this year.
