MoonLake stock jumps after FDA feedback clears path for sonelokimab filing without new HS trials

New York, Jan 8, 2026, 17:06 EST — After-hours MoonLake Immunotherapeutics shares jumped 27% to $14.34 on Thursday after the biotech said U.S. regulators supported a route to file its hidradenitis suppurativa treatment without doing more trials for the skin disease. The stock churned between $11.20 and $17.28, and roughly 24 million shares traded.

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 21:06 ET — Market closed Axsome Therapeutics shares jumped 22.9% in the Dec. 31 session, ending at $182.64 after the company disclosed two U.S. FDA updates that put near-term regulatory milestones back in focus.
