- 2. Cantor Fitzgerald analysts commented, "SNS-062 Data Now 3Q18. SNSS disclosed that it now expects to complete the Phase Ib trial of SNS-062 in fall 2018, which we interpret as early 4Q18, though it could be late 3Q18. The second dose cohort (50 mg) has not yet completed, but since a Phase Ia in healthy volunteers was run, our expectation has been that it would not take many doses to identify the Phase II dose (RP2D). While the reasons for the delay (rapidly progressing patient, non-drug related AE) are understandable, we think the disclosure could cause the shares to pull back." (3/8/2018)
