What are Wall Street analysts saying about Selecta Biosciences stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Selecta Biosciences stock:
- 1. Stifel Nicolaus analysts commented, "We are reiterating our Buy rating and $7 target price after SELB reported its 4Q18 financial and business update. While we believe SELB’s 1Q19 capital raise addressed some of the near-term headwinds for the stock and should allow the company to further develop its lead program, SEL-212, as a treatment for chronic severe gout, we do think the company must execute well in order to achieve its communicated timelines, which appear somewhat aggressive. As we published recently, the design of the H2H study (SEL-212 vs. Krystexxa) and the fact Krystexxa is being used as monotherapy may not fully resolve the investor debate around SEL-212’s commercial opportunity, even if results are positive. With that said, we remain encouraged after our discussion with management today in which it indicated securing a partnership for its ImmTOR platform remains a priority this year." (3/15/2019)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Selecta Biosciences, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company which develops targeted immunotherapies and vaccines. Its product pipelineincludes gene therapy, food allergy, malaria; SEL-212, which is a therapeutic enzyme indicated for refractory gout; SEL-070, which is indicated for smoking cessation and relapse prevention; SEL-701, which is indicated for the treatment of human papillomavirus associated cancer and SEL-212 consists of SVP-Rapamycin co-administered with pegsiticase, its pegylated uricase. Selecta Biosciences, Inc. is based in Watertown, United States. " (1/10/2019)
- 3. Mizuho analysts commented, "We hosted a doc call on 10/29 to discuss SEL-212. Our consultant noted some of the main potential advantages of SEL-212 vs. the standard of care including; 1) Improved treatment regimen with fewer infusions (1x/month) vs. a proposed Krystexxa combo (2x/month + daily or weekly anti-proliferative agent) and 2) Superior safety profile. Our consultant believes SEL-212 is ready for phase 3 given considerable amounts of data generated to date on treatment regimen and dosing along with clear objective measurements showing tophi mitigation and lowering of uric acid levels in a majority of patients. She argued that had the stopping rules not been as stringent in the phase 2 trial, the results may have looked better." (11/5/2018)
- 4. Canaccord Genuity analysts commented, "We expect Selecta to present positive 5-dose Phase 2 combination data for SEL-212 in severe gout during 3Q18, and see significant upside for the stock. Selecta is likely to present data from multiple dosing cohorts, with up to n=20 patients from each cohort. We suspect focus will be on the 0.15 mg/kg SVP-rapamycin + 0.20 pegsiticase dose, but await upcoming data. We see little reason that SEL-212 will not reproduce data at 5 months similar to that seen at 3 months, where ~80% Serum Uric Acid control was shown." (7/11/2018)
