Leerink analyst Michael Schmidt recommends using today's pullback in shares of Incyte after the company announced its decision to stop one arm of its ongoing Phase II trial of ruxolitinib in metastatic colorectal cancer due to futility as a buying opportunity. The study is one of several ongoing trials to evaluate ruxolitinib in various solid tumor indications, the analyst points out. He says that while the news is disappointing, the stock's current valuation reflects very little if any value for ruxolitinib in solid tumor indications. Schmidt lowered his price target for Incyte shares to $118 from $135 and reiterates an Outperform rating on the name. The stock is down 13%, or $9.98, to $65.01 in pre-market trading.
