Biogen Unusual Options Activity For November 20

On Tuesday, UCB SA (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UCBJY#OTC">UCBJY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UCBJF#OTC">UCBJF</a>) and&nbsp;Biogen Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIIB#NASDAQ">BIIB</a>) presented detailed results from the Phase 3 PHOENYCS GO study evaluating dapirolizumab pegol (DZP) for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/g42054524/dapirolizumab-pegol-phase-3-data-presented-at-the-american-college-of-rheumatology-shows-significa" rel="noreferrer noopener">systemic lupus erythematosus</a>.
The drug candidate demonstrated significant clinical improvement in disease activity in patients with moderate-to-severe systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/09/41000544/biogenucb-partnered-autoimmune-disease-candidate-hits-primary-goal-in-late-stage-study-sets-stage" rel="noreferrer noopener">Biogen/UCB Partnered Autoimmune Disease Candidate Hits Primary Goal In Late-Stage Study, Sets Stage Another Pivotal Trial</a>
The results were shared at the American College of Rheumatology&#8217;s annual meeting. In the 321-subject trial, DZP was administered intravenously every four weeks.
On the primary endpoint measuring improvement of moderate-to-severe disease activity after 48 weeks, study participants receiving DZP plus standard care had a statistically significant 14.6% higher response rate (49.5%) than those receiving SOC alone (34.6%).
On the first secondary endpoint of disease activity response at Week 24, study participants receiving DZP plus SOC had a 7.9% higher response rate (46.6%) than those receiving SOC alone (38.3%). However, the difference did not reach statistical significance.
A greater response was observed across multiple clinical endpoints among participants treated with DZP, including 50% less severe disease flares than participants on standard of care alone.
Participants from the PHOENYCS GO study will continue to be followed in a long-term open-label study.
In 2024, UCB and Biogen will initiate a second Phase 3 trial of dapirolizumab pegol, PHOENYCS FLY.
From a stock perspective, William Blair writes that dapirolizumab isn&#8217;t significantly impacting Biogen&#8217;s valuation, as investors remain focused on Leqembi&#8217;s commercial rollout, which is still a work in progress.
The success of Biogen&#8217;s late-stage development programs is crucial for future growth, complementing opportunities from Leqembi, Skyclarys, and potentially zuranolone, especially as its multiple sclerosis business continues to feel pressure from generic competition.
Leqembi remains a growth driver, particularly with potential advancements like subcutaneous administration approval, though its progress has been slower than expected. Despite these challenges, Biogen&#8217;s modest valuation presents an upside, supported by its commercial portfolio and cost-cutting measures. The analyst maintains an <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/biib/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">Outperform rating on the stock.</a>
Price Action: BIIB stock is down 0.72% at $154.31 at last check Wednesday.

UCB And Biogen Present Phase 3 Data On Dapirolizumab Pegol, Showing Significant Lupus Activity Reduction

Needham downgraded Biogen Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIIB#NASDAQ">BIIB</a>), citing limited catalysts for the company over the next year.
Alzheimer&#8217;s drug Leqembi&#8217;s (lecanemab) sales growth is expected to stay gradual without a sharp increase in the near future. The analyst remarked that the physician feedback and expert opinions indicate this <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/09/40774738/biogeneisais-leqembi-brings-hope-to-early-alzheimers-patients-amid-logistical-challenges" rel="noreferrer noopener">slow pace will continue</a>.
Leqembi&#8217;s third-quarter global in-market sales were approximately $67 million, including U.S. in-market sales of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/10/41626559/biogens-q3-profit-beats-expectations-on-lower-multiple-sclerosis-revenues-but-new-products-offset" rel="noreferrer noopener">approximately $39 million</a>.
Although investors are aware of this, market expectations are still high. Biogen will face ongoing challenges as these expectations are adjusted to more realistic levels.
In a positive move, last week, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommended approval of Eisai Co., Ltd (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESALY#OTC">ESALY</a>) and Biogen&#8217;s lecanemab for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/g41979127/eisai-receives-positive-opinion-from-the-chmp-in-the-european-union-for-lecanemab-in-early-alzheim" rel="noreferrer noopener">early Alzheimer&#8217;s disease</a>.
Needham projects Skyclarys&#8217; fourth-quarter sales to reach approximately $116 million and $608 million for 2025. This aligns with management&#8217;s comments suggesting that U.S. sales growth may be uneven, while international growth could be slower due to pricing negotiations and a gradual increase in the number of patients on treatment.
Revenues from Skyclarys, acquired via Reata acquisition, reached $102.3 million during the quarter.
Needham writes that revenues are expected to remain flat or decline slightly until 2026, as it will take time for new products like Leqembi, Skyclarys, and Zurzuvae to grow enough to offset the drop in existing business.
Postpartum depression drug Zurzuvae&#8217;s third-quarter sales reached $22 million.
Needham has downgraded the stock from Buy to Hold with no price target, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BIIB/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">compared to $270 earlier</a>.
Revenues are projected to fall by a small percentage in 2024, remain stable in 2025, and increase by about 3% in 2026, assuming continued growth from key product launches.
Operating margins are anticipated to improve by 80 basis points in 2025, driven by the Fit for Growth program, though this is already widely expected.
Business development could support growth in the short to medium term, but the timing and nature of such deals are hard to predict.
Price Action: BIIB stock is down 1.15% at $158.15 at the last check on Monday.
