Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Fate Therapeutics stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Fate Therapeutics, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company. The company focused on the discovery and development of adult stem cell modulators to treat hematologic malignancies, lysosomal storage disorders and muscular dystrophies. Fate Therapeutics, Inc. is headquartered in San Diego, California. " (9/8/2017)
• 2. HC Wainwright analysts commented, "With FDA clearing the Investigational New Drug application (IND) for FATE-NK100, we believe Fate made considerable progress to advance its adaptive natural killer (NK) cell program. As the first program of its type, we believe there could have been considerable delays, but we are encouraged by the FDA's decision and would expect similar regulatory approvals in Canada and the UK in the coming quarter. Fate intends to begin its Phase 1 trial in patients with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with an accelerated doseescalation scheme, agreed to by the FDA, which would employ a single patient at each of four dose levels, provided no dose-limiting toxicities are observed. Once the target therapeutic dose has been safely reached, Fate intends to dose six additional patients. We expect Fate's collaborator at the University of Minnesota (UMN) will be able to enroll this trial briskly and we would expect to see data presented at a medical forum in 2H17. We believe investigators will be looking for a 30% complete response rate, in other words, at least as good as UMN was seeing with its own research. In addition to response rate, Fate will look at disease free survival, minimal residual disease, and persistence. We expect Fate to explore NK100 in solid tumors, submitting a protocol evaluating NK100 in gynecologic malignancies, targeting a mid-2017 start. Separately, we expect NK100 to be evaluated in a combination study with its own IND; we expect a submission in the next couple months. Although we do not include NK100 in our valuation, we believe that positive clinical data could drive significant upside." (3/20/2017)
• 3. BMO Capital Markets analysts commented, "We are raising our price target to $7 from $4, following 4Q16 earnings that underlined growing interesting in Fate's earlier stage assets, NK100 and iPSC. Our DCF valuation increases as we assign value for these therapies to continue revenue growth beyond ProTmune. We expect ProTmune Phase I interim data in mid-2017 and NK100 to enroll its first AML patient in 2Q17. Fate's hnCD16-iNK could start human trials by early 2018. While we see tremendous potential in the NK100 and iPSC platforms, we wait for clinical validation before including them in our model." (3/17/2017)
