Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Mara Goldstein downgraded NewLink Genetics (NLNK) to Neutral from Overweight and cut her price target for the shares to $7 from $26. The analyst cites NewLink's decision to revisit the indoximod clinical program as the reason for the downgrade. Goldstein previously highlighted the differentiating factors between indoximod and Incyte's (INCY) epacadostat, but she now has reduced confidence given a "lack of decisive commentary" from NewLink management.
