Leerink analyst Jason Gerberry says the AIM-TD study readout clinically de-risks Teva's (TEVA) SD-809 opportunity for tardive dyskinesia, with the investor focus shifting to market size and competitive differentiation versus Neurocrine's (NBIX) valbenazine. The analyst believes Teva's SD-809 is well positioned to compete against valbenazine with an equally efficacious and well tolerated drug. Further, he expects Teva to exit 2017 with a broader label. Gerberry reiterates an Outperform rating on Teva's shares.
