Viking Therapeutics Inc. (VKTX)
Viking Therapeutics: Competition Fears Are Exaggerated
Viking Therapeutics' VK2735 reported promising results in February, with significant weight loss, however, shares have returned to prices before reporting VENTURE Phase II results. The company's pipeline includes VK2809 for NASH, adding value beyond VK2735's weight-loss potential. Competition concerns are overblown; Viking's dual GLP-1/GIP agonist has competitive advantages over single-mechanism therapeutics, and concern regarding small-molecule candidates is as yet unfounded.
Here's Why VKTX Stock Plummeted 18% on Wednesday
The selloff in Viking Therapeutics stock comes after some investors raised concerns for the small biotech amid Merck's entry into the obesity space.
What's Going On With Viking Therapeutics Stock On Wednesday?
On Wednesday, Merck & Co Inc MRK and Hansoh Pharma, a Chinese biopharmaceutical company, entered into an exclusive global license agreement for HS-10535, an investigational preclinical oral small molecule GLP-1 receptor agonist.
