Larry Biegelsen has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors surrounding NovoCure’s recent developments. The presentation at ASCO highlighted the positive outcomes of the PANOVA-3 trial, which demonstrated a notable overall survival benefit for patients with pancreatic cancer. This improvement, although modest, is expected to be significant enough to support FDA approval, which would be a crucial step forward for the company.
Furthermore, the potential for Tumor Treating Fields (TTF) to become a new standard treatment paradigm alongside existing chemotherapy regimens like gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel is promising. The anticipated approval and subsequent launch of PANOVA-3, along with the upcoming PANOVA-4 trial data, are expected to drive future revenue growth. Despite some challenges, such as the burden of device wear time, the overall outlook for NovoCure remains positive, justifying the Buy rating.
