AstraZeneca's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZN#NYSE">AZN</a>) short percent of float has fallen 10.91% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 15.24 million shares sold short, which is 0.49% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.5 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for AstraZeneca has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing AstraZeneca's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, AstraZeneca's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.23%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Peering Into AstraZeneca's Recent Short Interest

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Monday approved AstraZeneca Plc's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZN#NASDAQ">AZN</a>) Imfinzi&nbsp;(durvalumab) in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin as neoadjuvant treatment, followed by Imfinzi&nbsp;as adjuvant monotherapy&nbsp;after radical cystectomy (surgery to remove the bladder) for adult patients with muscle-<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech" rel="noreferrer noopener">invasive bladder cancer (MIBC)</a>.
The FDA approval was based on results from the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/03/b44558058/imfinzi-durvalumab-approved-in-the-us-as-first-and-only-perioperative-immunotherapy-for-patients-w" rel="noreferrer noopener">NIAGARA Phase 3 trial</a>.
In a planned interim analysis, the Imfinzi-based&nbsp;perioperative regimen demonstrated a 32% reduction in the risk of disease progression, recurrence, not undergoing surgery, or death versus the comparator arm.

The estimated median event-free survival (EFS) has not yet been reached for the Imfinzi arm versus 46.1 months for the comparator arm. An estimated 67.8% of patients treated with the regimen were event-free at two years compared to 59.8% in the comparator arm.
Results from the key secondary endpoint of overall survival (OS) showed that the Imfinzi-based perioperative regimen reduced the risk of death by 25% versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy with radical cystectomy.
Median survival was not yet reached for either arm. An estimated 82.2% of patients treated with the regimen were alive at two years compared to 75.2% in the comparator arm.
Concurrently, AstraZeneca's&nbsp;Calquence&nbsp;(acalabrutinib) in combination with bendamustine and rituximab was <a target="_blank" href="https://www.astrazeneca.com/media-centre/press-releases/2025/calquence-recommended-for-eu-approval-in-1l-mcl.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">recommended</a> for approval in the European Union for adult patients with previously untreated mantle cell lymphoma who are not eligible for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
The positive opinion was based on the &nbsp;ECHO Phase 3 trial results.
Calquence&nbsp;plus bendamustine and rituximab reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 27% compared to standard-of-care chemoimmunotherapy.
Median PFS was 66.4 months for patients treated with the Calquence combination versus 49.6 with chemoimmunotherapy alone.
Price Action: AZN stock is down 0.86% at $73.16 at the last check Monday.

Johnson &amp; Johnson said in a Wednesday press release that the median OS is projected to exceed one year beyond the median of three years observed with&nbsp;osimertinib and has not yet been reached.
The pharma giant says this is the first and only study to show a statistically significant and clinically meaningful OS improvement over osimertinib.
At a median follow-up of 37.8 months, patients treated with the chemotherapy-free regimen of first-line Rybrevant plus Lazcluze had a significantly longer OS than those receiving osimertinib.
Median OS for Rybrevant plus Lazcluze has not yet been reached, indicating that survival benefits continue to extend beyond the measured follow-up period.
Comparatively, median OS for osimertinib-treated patients was 36.7 months.
56% of patients treated with Rybrevant plus Lazcluze were alive at three and a half years, compared to 44% of patients on osimertinib.
The Rybrevant plus Lazcluze combination also prolonged multiple secondary endpoints vs. osimertinib, including intracranial PFS, intracranial duration of response (DOR) and intracranial overall response rate (ORR).&nbsp;
Rybrevant plus Lazcluze prolonged the time to symptomatic progression—the time from treatment randomization to the onset of lung cancer symptoms—by more than 14 months compared to osimertinib (43.6 months vs. 29.3 months).
The MARIPOSA study&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4389728-1&amp;h=3239710368&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jnj.com%2Fmedia-center%2Fpress-releases%2Flandmark-phase-3-mariposa-study-shows-rybrevant-amivantamab-vmjw-plus-lazertinib-resulted-in-30-percent-reduction-in-risk-of-disease-progression-or-death-compared-to-osimertinib-in-patients-with-egfr-mutated-non-small-cell-lung-cancer&amp;a=met+its+primary+endpoint" rel="noreferrer noopener">met its primary endpoint</a> in October 2023, showing a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in PFS compared to osimertinib.&nbsp;

The Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI) is urging ministers to address excessive levies on manufacturers to ensure the sector remains competitive globally.
The life sciences industry, a key pillar of the UK&#8217;s economic strategy, could struggle to attract investment unless payment rates are adjusted.
Last week, the government <a href="https://www.abpi.org.uk/media/news/2025/march/uk-set-to-demand-a-third-of-pharmaceutical-company-revenue-in-second-half-of-2025/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">proposed</a> raising the Statutory Scheme payment rate for newer branded medicines from 15.5% to 32.2% of subject companies&#8217; National Health Service (NHS) sales in the second half of 2025.
The payment rate is the revenue companies must hand back to the government on their sales of branded medicines to the NHS. It is an additional charge to the taxes paid by companies.

The pharmaceutical sector <a target="_blank" href="https://www.abpi.org.uk/media/news/2025/march/medicine-levy-makes-the-uk-un-investable-say-pharma-leaders/" rel="noreferrer noopener">contributes</a> over 17.6 billion pounds ($22.76 billion) directly to the U.K. economy, with an additional 45 billion generated through research and development spillovers.
However, companies argue that growth is being stifled due to escalating mandatory payments. Under the current system, firms must pay between 23.5% and 35.6% of their branded medicine sales revenue to the NHS. This is significantly higher than other European nations, where comparable rates range from 5.7% to 9%, ABPI writes.
The ABPI report highlights that while the UK once led in medicine availability, it has slipped to ninth place in Europe over the past decade. One year after launch, medicine usage in England is only 52% of the average of comparable nations, rising to 62% after five years.
Additionally, the UK has dropped from fourth to tenth in global rankings for phase 3 clinical trials, lagging behind Spain, Germany and Italy.
Investment in UK pharmaceutical research has also declined, with the country&#8217;s share of global R&amp;D investment falling from 7.3% to 5.7% in just three years.
This marks the fastest decline of any European G7 nation. Meanwhile, NHS funding has grown by 33% in real terms over the past decade, but spending on branded medicines has been capped at annual growth rates between 1.1% and 2%, declining by 11% when adjusted for inflation.
The industry and government have long collaborated on agreements to ensure NHS access to medicines.
The latest, the Voluntary Scheme for Branded Medicines, Pricing, Access, and Growth (VPAG), was intended to realign UK payment rates with international standards. While rates for newer medicines briefly dropped to 15.1% in 2024, they surged again in 2025 to 23.5% for newer medicines, with companies still paying 10.6%-35.6% for older products.

The medicines company released scanty but promising results for an experimental drug just as its shares were joining the Hong Kong Stock Connect scheme
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Key Takeaways:</h4>
<ul>
<li>The drug being developed by TYK Medicines targets lung cancer that has spread to the brain, where market competition is already fierce</li>
<li>The market leader in lung cancer drugs, AstraZeneca, declined to comment without seeing more detailed clinical data about the Chinese product</li>
</ul>
A victory in head-to-head clinical trials has the power to shake up the pharmaceutical industry, where companies are competing to deliver the next game-changing drug.
Which is why China's&nbsp;TYK Medicines Inc.&nbsp;(2410.HK) grabbed the sector spotlight this month when it announced that a drug under development had outperformed the world's leading lung cancer treatment in early trials. Investors wondered if they were witnessing the arrival of a new disruptor in the market for cancer therapies.
But the news left many questions still to be answered.
TYK released a short&nbsp;<a href="https://www1.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/sehk/2025/0309/2025030900033.pdf">statement</a>&nbsp;on March 9 saying that its candidate drug TY-9591 had, by one measure, demonstrated greater effectiveness against brain metastases from a type of lung cancer than the best-in-class treatment, osimertinib, developed by the pharma giant&nbsp;AstraZeneca&nbsp;(AZN.US).
However, it was worth reading the fine print about the comparison between the two drugs. The evaluation was made using a limited sample in a Phase Two trial and focused on a specific metric for effects on the brain. On that basis, the drug achieved "notably improved statistical and clinical significance over osimertinib", TYK said.
In a head-to-head trial, a new drug is tested under standardized trial conditions against a proven benchmark treatment. TYK's experimental drug is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting cancers with a genetic mutation known as EGFR. The TYK version deviates from the osimertinib formula by replacing hydrogen atoms with deuterium, with the aim of allowing larger doses to be dispensed safely. The company said that it planned to file a new drug application for its product with Chinese regulators in due course.
EGFR, which stands for epidermal growth factor receptor, is a common mutation seen in lung cancer patients and is therefore a frequent therapy target. AstraZeneca's drug is a third-generation inhibitor in this field, used to treat the most common type of cancer affecting the lungs, non-small cell lung cancer. Osimertinib sales rose16% to $6.58 billion in 2024, confirming the drug's status as the leading weapon against lung cancer.
Investors were excited about a potential challenger. Shares in the Chinese drug developer surged as much as 50% on the first trading day after the announcement, before closing with a gain of 16.18%. Interestingly, TYK shares made their debut that same day in the Hong Kong Stock Connect system, which allows mainland Chinese investors to participate in the market. Trading turnover spiked to 3.39 million shares after languishing at a daily average of 200,000, but the euphoria quickly cooled. The price corrected over three days, falling more than 21% to sink below the pre-announcement level.
What could explain the volatility over four trading days?
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Clinical findings under scrutiny</h4>
In its statement to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange about the trial results, the company did not reveal detailed data, saying that more comprehensive information would be shared at clinical conferences in China or overseas. Asked for its response, AstraZeneca said it could not comment on the limited data available so far.
The methodology also deserves a closer look. The industry-standard endpoints, or targeted outcomes, in cancer drug trials are overall survival, progression-free survival or disease-free survival. In this case, TYK chose to focus on the intracranial objective response rate, or iORR, which tracks lesions in the brain. Moreover, the study was small in scope with 244 test subjects, leaving a question mark over whether the drug can continue to outperform when it moves into a much larger Phase Three trial.
The competitive picture should also be factored in. Other drugs have beaten TY-9591 to market for treating secondary brain cancer that originated in the lungs. &nbsp;Zorifertinib, jointly developed by Jiangsu Chentai Pharmaceutical Technology and AstraZeneca, launched last November as the world's first EGFR-TKI product specifically aimed at brain tumors triggered by lung cancer.
Novel drug developer TYK was founded in 2017 and went public in Hong Kong in August last year. The IPO prospectus showed that, aside from TY-9591, its 10 other candidate drugs are all at the pre-clinical research stage. With no products yet to sell, the company is far from the breakeven point. It made annual losses of 312 million yuan ($43 million) in 2022 and 383 million yuan the following year, before landing 108 million yuan in the red in the first quarter of 2024. Its pre-IPO financial profile raised other concerns, with net debt of 934 million yuan at the end of last March and a cash reserve of 77.21 million yuan.
The EGFR-TKI marketplace includes at least six products, with more advanced drugs lining up in the Phase Three stage of clinical testing. &nbsp;Companies such as&nbsp;Betta Pharmaceuticals&nbsp;(300558.SZ),&nbsp;Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical,&nbsp;Shanghai Junshi Biosciences&nbsp;(1877.HK) and&nbsp;Qilu Pharmaceutical&nbsp;have all launched clinical trials for the latest iterations in this product category.
With fierce competition in a fast-evolving market for specialist drugs, it remains to be seen whether TYK Medicines can deliver a standout product.

A Potential Challenger For AstraZeneca's Blockbuster Lung Cancer Drug?

On Monday, AstraZeneca Plc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZN#NASDAQ">AZN</a>) released high-level results from the CALYPSO Phase 3 trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of eneboparatide in adults with chronic hypoparathyroidism.
The study showed that eneboparatide (AZP-3601), an investigational parathyroid hormone (PTH) receptor 1 agonist, met its primary endpoint with statistical significance at 24 weeks in adults with chronic hypoparathyroidism (HypoPT) compared to placebo.
The primary <a target="_blank" href="https://www.astrazeneca.com/media-centre/press-releases/2025/eneboparatide-phase-iii-trial-met-primary-endpoint.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">endpoint</a> is a composite of normalization of albumin-adjusted serum calcium levels and independence from active vitamin D and oral calcium therapy.

HypoPT is a rare endocrine disease caused by a deficiency of PTH and is characterized by impaired regulation of calcium and phosphate levels in the blood. Eneboparatide was well tolerated.
After the 24-week randomized treatment period, all patients receive eneboparatide in the ongoing long-term extension until 52 weeks. Full efficacy and safety data will be analyzed at 52 weeks.
Concurrently, AstraZeneca and Alteogen <a target="_blank" href="https://www.astrazeneca.com/media-centre/press-releases/2025/astrazeneca-enters-license-agreement-with-alteogen-for-subcutaneous-formulations-of-multiple-oncology-assets.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">entered</a> into an exclusive license agreement for ALT-B4, a hyaluronidase utilizing Hybrozyme platform technology.
Under the terms of the agreement, AstraZeneca will acquire worldwide rights to use ALT-B4 to develop and commercialize subcutaneous formulations of several oncology assets.
Alteogen will be responsible for the clinical and commercial supply of ALT-B4 to AstraZeneca.
AstraZeneca will pay Alteogen an upfront payment and additional payments upon achieving specific development, regulatory, and sales-related milestones. Additionally, Alteogen will receive royalties on the sales of the commercialized products.
On Monday, the European Union approved AstraZeneca&#8217;s Imfinzi (durvalumab)&nbsp;as monotherapy for adults with limited-stage small cell lung cancer whose disease has not progressed following platinum-based chemoradiation therapy.

Eventful Monday For AstraZeneca - What's Going On?

EsoBiotec SA, a biotechnology company specializing in in vivo cell therapies, has announced a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/03/g44350232/esobiotec-to-be-acquired-by-astrazeneca-to-advance-cell-therapy-ambition" rel="noreferrer noopener">definitive agreement to be acquired</a> by AstraZeneca PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZN#NYSE">AZN</a>).
The agreement represents a major step forward for EsoBiotec, which has demonstrated encouraging early clinical results with its Engineered NanoBody Lentiviral (ENaBL) platform.
AstraZeneca is acquiring all of EsoBiotec&#8217;s outstanding equity for a total of up to $1 billion. The deal includes an initial $425 million payment at closing, with up to an additional $575 million in contingent consideration based on development and regulatory milestones.
The transaction is expected to be finalized in the second quarter of 2025. EsoBiotec will continue operations in Belgium as a wholly owned subsidiary of AstraZeneca.
&#8220;We believe it has the potential to transform cell therapy and will enable us to scale these innovative treatments so that many more patients around the world can access them. EsoBiotec will accelerate and expand the impact of our recent investments and marks a major step forward in realising our ambition to harness the full potential of cell therapy,&#8221; said AstraZeneca Executive Vice President, Oncology Haematology R&amp;D, Susan Galbraith.

EsoBiotec&#8217;s&nbsp;ENaBL platform utilizes highly targeted lentiviruses to deliver genetic instructions directly to immune cells like T cells. The technology programs these cells to recognize and destroy cancerous cells or autoreactive cells related to immune-mediated diseases.
In contrast to conventional treatments that require extracting cells from patients, modifying them externally, and enduring prolonged manufacturing periods, ENaBL works by enhancing the immune system within the patient&#8217;s body itself, by administering therapies through a simple intravenous (IV) injection.
AstraZeneca held $5.6 billion in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/901832/000165495425001189/a1107w.htm" rel="noreferrer noopener">cash </a>and equivalents as of December 31.

AstraZeneca To Acquire EsoBiotec For Up To $1B, Advancing In Vivo Cell Therapy Capabilities With Breakthrough ENaBL Platform

H.C. Wainwright &amp; Co. initiated coverage on Thursday for Perspective Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CATX#NASDAQ">CATX</a>), a clinical-stage biotechnology company advancing &#8220;targeted radiotherapy agents&#8221; for cancer treatment.
Analyst Robert Burns initiated a Buy rating and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CATX/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $10</a>.
The company&#8217;s pipeline comprises:
<ul>
<li>VMT01/02 for melanoma, which is being studied as both monotherapy and in combination with Opdivo (nivolumab).</li>
<li>VMT-α-NET for various neuroendocrine cancers and other SSTR2-expressing tumors.</li>
<li>PSV359 for multiple solid tumor types.</li>
<li>PSV40X for prostate cancer.</li>
</ul>
The company&#8217;s melanoma (VMT01) and neuroendocrine tumor (VMT-α-NET) programs have entered Phase 1/2a imaging and therapy trials for metastatic melanoma and neuroendocrine tumors.

In January, Perspective Therapeutics&nbsp;revealed updated interim results from its ongoing Phase 1/2a trial of&nbsp;[212Pb]VMT-α-NET. Anti-tumor activities have been observed&nbsp;with a longer follow-up. As of the data cut-off date of Jan. 10, 2025, there were two unconfirmed responses and one confirmed response, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/25/01/43197970/perspective-therapeutics-touts-encouraging-updated-data-from-gastrointestinal-cancer-trial-stock-soars" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">as in Cohort 2</a>.
H.C. Wainwright &amp; Co. writes that from a safety perspective, 212Pb-VMT-α-NET appears to be relatively benign at the dose levels tested thus far.
The analyst writes that PSV359 and VMT01/02 constitute upside potential. Burns also notes that in preclinical experiments, VMT01/02 demonstrated high response rates in multiple tested models and &gt;70% complete and durable response when combined with PD1 immunotherapy in a model highly resistant to checkpoint inhibitors
Perspective Therapeutics disclosed initial preclinical results for its FAPtargeted asset, PSV359 and views the preclinical anti-tumor efficacy as encouraging. The analyst also writes it is difficult to benchmark it against 177LuFAP-2286 and PNT6555 because these experiments were performed in a completely different mouse model.
&#8220;Additionally, when we think about potential targets for targeted radioligand therapy (TRT), we believe that most of the targets being pursued by ADCs and/or cell therapy are viable targets for TRT. As such, we view the targeted radioligand space as analogous to where the ADC space was a few years ago,&#8221; Burns writes.

Perspective Therapeutics' Cancer-Focused Radiotherapy Portfolio Has Upside Potentional, Says Analyst

On Thursday, Vivani Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VANI#NASDAQ">VANI</a>) announced the administration of its first GLP-1 (exenatide, NPM-115) implant in the LIBERATE-1 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/weight-loss" rel="noreferrer noopener">trial in Australia</a>.
Vivani's lead program, NPM-115, utilizes a miniature, six-month, subdermal, GLP-1 (exenatide) implant under development for chronic weight management in obese or overweight individuals.

The company also announced full enrollment in the LIBERATE-1 study, which was achieved four weeks after the first subject enrolled, and reaffirmed that top-line results should be available in mid-2025.
In December, Vivani Medical initiated screening and enrollment at two centers in Australia for the first-in-<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/12/42576062/exclusive-vivani-medical-initiates-first-human-clinical-trial-with-glp-1-implant-for-weight-loss-in-australia" rel="noreferrer noopener">human LIBERATE-1 trial</a>.
The LIBERATE-1 study is exploring the full pharmacokinetic profile of NPM-115, which has demonstrated consistently smooth and minimally fluctuating drug release in vitro and in animal models.
LIBERATE-1 is a Phase 1, first-in-human study of a miniature, ultra-long-acting GLP-1 (exenatide) implant to investigate the safety, tolerability, and full pharmacokinetic profile in obese or overweight subjects.
The trial will enroll participants who are intended to be titrated on weekly semaglutide injections for 8 weeks (0.25 mg/week for 4 weeks followed by 0.5 mg/week for 4 weeks) before being randomized to receive a single administration of Vivani's exenatide implant (NPM-115, n=8), weekly exenatide injections (Bydureon BCise, n=8), or weekly 1 mg semaglutide injections (Wegovy, n=8) for 9-week treatment duration.
Vivani also expects these results to support the potential application of a GLP-1 (exenatide) implant for type 2 diabetes and other diseases for which GLP-1 treatment has demonstrated or will demonstrate clinical benefit.
AstraZeneca Plc's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZN#NASDAQ">AZN</a>) Bydureon BCise (exenatide 2 mg prolonged-release suspension for injection) is indicated for type-2 diabetes.
Novo Nordisk A/S' (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>) semaglutide is approved as Ozempic and Wegovy for diabetes and weight loss, respectively.
