Debanjana Chatterjee’s rating is based on several factors, including the recent developments in KalVista Pharmaceuticals’ competitive landscape. The positive data from PHVS’ RAPIDe-3 trial, although initially perceived as a competitive threat, has actually alleviated concerns about the efficacy of IR deucrictibant, which had been a significant overhang on KALV’s stock.
Furthermore, the survey conducted among key opinion leaders indicates that the efficacy of KalVista’s Ekterly is comparable to that of IR deucrictibant, suggesting a strong competitive position in the market. The anticipation of continued rapid growth and the potential for Ekterly to capture a substantial share of the on-demand market by 2026 also contribute to the Buy rating. These factors collectively support the optimistic outlook for KalVista Pharmaceuticals’ stock performance.
According to TipRanks, Chatterjee is a 5-star analyst with an average return of 30.8% and a 63.54% success rate. Chatterjee covers the Healthcare sector, focusing on stocks such as Intellia Therapeutics, KalVista Pharmaceuticals, and Opus Genetics.
