H.C. Wainwright analyst Patrick Trucchio believes the FDA approval of Ionis Pharmaceuticals’ (IONS) Tryngolza, an oligonucleotide, for the treatment of familial chylomicronemia syndrome, has positive read-through to Arrowhead’s (ARWR) plozasiran. Based on the “compelling” Phase 3 trial data generated from Arrowhead’s plozasiran, an RNA interference therapeutic targeting apolipoprotein C-III in familial chylomicronemia syndrome, plozasiran should also be approved by the second half of 2025 with a broad label, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Furthermore, with “best-in-class” characteristics on efficacy, quarterly dosing, and side effect profile, H.C. Wainwright believes plozasiran, if approved, is well positioned to become standard-of-care in familial chylomicronemia syndrome. The firm reiterates a Buy rating on the shares with an $80 price target.
