New York, January 12, 2026, 15:41 ET — Regular session Shares of Arcutis Biotherapeutics dropped 8.7% on Monday, slipping $2.46 to $25.76, following the company’s update on its 2026 priorities.

Atara Biotherapeutics stock dives on FDA EBVALLO rejection — what ATRA investors watch next

New York, Jan 12, 2026, 09:54 EST — Regular session Atara Biotherapeutics shares plunged about 56% to $6.03 in early trading after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration rejected its cell therapy tabelecleucel, marketed as EBVALLO in Europe, for a rare post-transplant cancer. The stock was volatile, swinging between $4.77 and $15.40 as investors reacted to the news, with volume exceeding 1.4 million shares.

Revolution Medicines stock jumps on Merck buyout buzz and an FDA breakthrough tag — what to watch Monday

Revolution Medicines stock jumps on Merck buyout buzz and an FDA breakthrough tag — what to watch Monday

New York, January 10, 2026, 09:47 EST — Market closed Revolution Medicines shares jumped 10.7% to close at $118.64 on Friday, hitting a session high of $125.79 amid merger rumors. The Financial Times reported that Merck is negotiating a potential $28 billion to $32 billion acquisition of the biotech. (Financial Times) The timing matters. A deal with Revolution would give Merck a new oncology boost as patents on its top-selling cancer drug Keytruda expire later this decade. This would mark the largest pharma acquisition since Pfizer’s buyout of Seagen. (Reuters) The stock swung wildly on conflicting reports, including another round

Revolution Medicines stock rises as Merck buyout talks swirl; FDA designation adds another spark

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 13:59 EST — Regular session Shares of Revolution Medicines climbed on Friday as investors weighed a report that Merck is in talks to buy the cancer-drug developer for up to $32 billion. Revolution was up about 4.3% at $112.00, after touching $125.79 earlier in the session. (Reuters) The chatter matters because Merck is hunting for oncology assets ahead of looming patent expirations on its blockbuster Keytruda, and dealmakers have been leaning harder into biotech after a busy year for healthcare M&A. A Revolution deal at that size would be one of the biggest pre-commercial biotech

Establishment Labs stock slides 5%: traders eye Motiva FDA next steps and JPM conference talk

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 13:50 EST — Regular session Establishment Labs Holdings Inc. shares slid about 5% to $69.22 in early afternoon trading Friday, after earlier rising as high as $74.37. The move stands out because the stock has been among the sharper movers in small-cap medical devices this week, and traders are balancing two timelines: near-term investor events and the longer U.S. regulatory process for its Motiva breast implants. On Friday, the broader market climbed after U.S. data showed employers added 50,000 jobs in December, leaving rate-cut bets intact even as the unemployment rate ticked down to 4.4%.

Travere Therapeutics TVTX stock slides 5% as FDA decision on Filspari nears

New York, January 6, 2026, 15:27 (ET) — Regular session Nasdaq-listed Travere Therapeutics shares fell 5.3% to $36.09 in afternoon trading on Tuesday as investors looked toward next week’s U.S. FDA decision deadline on expanding its kidney drug Filspari (sparsentan) into focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. The FDA’s Prescription Drug User Fee Act, or PDUFA, target action date is Jan. 13, and the stock has ranged from $34.88 to $39.16 in the session. SEC The case matters for Travere because FSGS is a rare disease that scars the kidney’s filtering units and can progress to kidney failure. An added label would broaden

Dyne Therapeutics stock drops 5% into 2026 — FDA filing timeline and next earnings date in focus

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 13:49 ET — Market closed Dyne Therapeutics shares closed down 5.5% on Friday at $18.50, ending the first U.S. trading session of 2026 on a softer note. About 2.65 million shares changed hands. The pullback matters because 2026 is shaping up as a timing-driven year for the clinical-stage biotech, with investors focused on whether its lead Duchenne muscular dystrophy program can reach regulators on schedule and on what that path costs. Dyne said in December its Phase 1/2 DELIVER trial met its main biomarker goal, lifting dystrophin — a muscle protein missing in Duchenne —

Corcept Therapeutics (CORT) stock sinks after FDA rebuff; relacorilant outlook resets

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 10:45 ET — Market closed. Corcept Therapeutics Inc (CORT) shares last ended Wednesday down 50.4% at $34.80 after the company said U.S. regulators were not ready to approve its drug relacorilant for a form of high blood pressure linked to hypercortisolism. U.S. stock markets are shut on Thursday for New Year’s Day. HCPLive The selloff matters because relacorilant was the company’s key near-term bet to broaden its commercial base beyond its current product, and the FDA’s response forces investors to reassess both timing and risk. It also sharpens focus on Corcept’s oncology program. In the

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 10:07 ET — Market closed Disc Medicine, Inc. shares rose 3.3% to $79.41 in the last U.S. trading session of 2025, before Wall Street shut on Thursday for the New Year’s Day holiday.
