Gilead stock jumps again as Trodelvy-Keytruda breast cancer data hit NEJM

Gilead has filed for expanded approval in the U.S. and Europe. Volume reached 8.8 million shares. A Form 144 filing showed executive Deborah Telman plans to sell up to 29,215 shares.

Sarepta stock sinks as Elevidys sales miss, flu delays spill into 2026

New York, Jan 12, 2026, 14:53 EST — Regular session. Sarepta Therapeutics shares dropped roughly 13% to $20.73 in Monday afternoon trading following a disappointing sales forecast for its Duchenne muscular dystrophy gene therapy, Elevidys, in the fourth quarter. This matters because Elevidys has turned into the company’s key swing factor — and a closely watched one at that — for a stock that’s already been tossed around by safety concerns and shifts in treatment protocols over the past year. The timing coincides with the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, where investors usually demand clear guidance and early insights for the
Why Soleno Therapeutics stock is down today: investor alerts revive Vykat XR scrutiny

Why Soleno Therapeutics stock is down today: investor alerts revive Vykat XR scrutiny

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 13:28 (EST) — Regular session Soleno Therapeutics shares slid on Friday, extending a choppy stretch for the rare-disease drugmaker. The stock was down 5.6% at $42.95, after touching a low of $42.73, while the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF was up about 1.1%. The move matters now because Soleno’s story still hinges on a young commercial launch and a single product, Vykat XR. Any shift in sentiment around safety, pricing, or patients staying on therapy can hit the stock hard, fast. A Zacks Equity Research industry outlook on Thursday highlighted Soleno alongside Nektar Therapeutics, Rigel Pharmaceuticals,

CG Oncology stock jumps 25% after pulling Phase 3 PIVOT-006 bladder cancer data into 1H 2026

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 11:52 EST — Regular session CG Oncology shares jumped on Friday after the company moved up the expected timing for late-stage trial results in bladder cancer. The stock was up 25.1% at $52.45 by 11:52 EST, versus Thursday’s close of $41.93, after trading between $41.63 and $52.64 on the day as volume topped 4.1 million shares. The faster timetable pulls forward a key catalyst for a biotech still in trials. In this part of the market, investors often trade the calendar as hard as the science. Topline data — the first look at whether a

Immuneering (IMRX) stock jumps in premarket after 12-month pancreatic cancer survival update

NEW YORK, Jan 8, 2026, 08:39 EST — Premarket Shares of Immuneering Corp jumped about 24% to $8.33 in premarket trading on Thursday, after the biotech released updated survival data for its lead pancreatic cancer program. The stock last closed at $6.74. The update matters because Immuneering’s valuation hinges on whether atebimetinib can hold up as the company pushes toward a pivotal, late-stage study. For small drug developers without a marketed product, one clinical readout can reset expectations fast. Pancreatic cancer is a tough proving ground. Survival gains are hard to show, and investors tend to discount early-stage results until

New York, January 6, 2026, 08:44 EST — Premarket Zenas BioPharma (ZBIO.O) shares were down 5.8% at $15.66 in premarket trading on Tuesday after ending Monday down 51.9% at $16.61. MarketScreener The slide follows a late-stage readout for the company’s lead drug obexelimab in IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD), a rare immune condition that can inflame and scar organs. Zenas met the main goal, but Wedbush analyst Martin Fan said investors were looking for a stronger effect than the hazard ratio of 0.44, a measure of risk over time where lower is better. Amgen’s Uplizna, the only FDA-approved treatment for IgG4-RD, cut

Eli Lilly (LLY) Stock After Hours on Dec. 24, 2025: Christmas Eve Close, GLP‑1 Headlines, and What to Watch Before Markets Reopen

Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) wrapped up a holiday-shortened Christmas Eve session with a modest gain — and then drifted slightly lower in thin after-hours trading as investors digested a policy-heavy news cycle around GLP‑1 obesity medicines. With U.S. markets closed on Christmas Day (Thursday, Dec. 25, 2025) and set to reopen Friday (Dec. 26, 2025), today’s late tape is less about big price swings and more about positioning: where Lilly stands in the global obesity market, what Washington’s latest coverage model could mean for pricing and volume, and what catalysts are coming next.

Gilead Sciences (GILD) Stock News Today: New Herpes Deal, TrumpRx Pricing Pact, and Fresh Wall Street Forecasts (Dec. 22, 2025)

Gilead Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: GILD) opened the holiday-shortened week with a mix of pipeline expansion and policy-driven uncertainty—two themes that can quickly move large-cap biopharma stocks even when overall market volume is lighter than usual. On Monday, December 22, 2025, Gilead announced it has exercised its option to license Assembly Biosciences’ investigational herpes simplex virus (HSV) programs—a move that strengthens Gilead’s long-term antiviral pipeline beyond HIV. The development lands just days after Gilead joined other major drugmakers in a Trump administration “most-favored-nation” drug-pricing agreement tied to tariff relief and direct-to-consumer drug access via TrumpRx.gov.
