uniQure stock jolts higher again after FDA biologics chief set to exit
uniQure shares surged 34% to $14.27 in U.S. premarket trading Monday after news that FDA biologics chief Vinay Prasad will step down in April. The move follows a dispute over the agency’s demand for a new sham-surgery trial of uniQure’s Huntington’s gene therapy. The FDA has not agreed to approve the treatment based on current data. uniQure ended 2025 with $622.5 million in cash and investments.
