Edgewise Therapeutics (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ewtx#NASDAQ">EWTX</a>) is a small-cap <a href="https://www.marketbeat.com/compare-stocks/pharmaceutical-stocks/">pharmaceutical stock</a> that has been all the rage recently. Shares are up 55% in the last three months and up 332% over the past 52 weeks. Yet, with still only a market cap of $2.4 billion, is there still time to get in? I&#39;ll examine recent news around the company, its <a href="https://edgewisetx.com/science-pipeline/pipeline/">drug pipeline</a>, and what Wall Street is saying to get a better handle on this question.
<h3>Edgewise&#39;s Muscular Dystrophy Treatments Have Large Market Than Others</h3>
Edgewise currently has two drugs that are driving the company. They are Sevasemten and EDG-7500. The company is researching Sevasemten to treat muscular dystrophy (MD). One interesting thing about this medicine is that it is being researched to treat multiple types of MD.
Specifically, it is currently in Phase 3 trials to treat Becker MD and in Phase 2 trials for Duchenne MD. Many medicines are being researched only on one form of MD. So, the possibility that they could apply to both is a strong differentiator for the company.
However, this is likely because the treatment manages symptoms. It does not target the genetic cause of Duchenne MD. The root cause of Duchenne and Becker is different, but the symptoms are similar.
Still, this treatment could be valuable and could theoretically be used in conjunction with genetic treatments. The focus on treatment management opens the product up to the entire MD market rather than a sliver of it; another potential benefit.
In its latest results for Becker, the drug showed it actually slightly improved muscle function after 24 months. Those given a placebo showed significantly worse function. Becker MD currently has no approved treatments. The company estimates there are currently around 47,000 people with one of the diseases in the US, EU, and Japan combined.
<h3>&nbsp;EDG-7500 Results Show It Keeps Up With The Competition</h3>
The company&#39;s other main drug, EDG-7500, is a cardiovascular medicine. Specifically, it works to treat hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Recent good news around this drug was why shares of Edgewise <a href="https://www.marketbeat.com/stock-ideas/edgewise-therapeutics-soars-50-key-reasons-behind-the-surge/">jumped 50% in one day</a>. HCM primarily affects the left ventricle of the heart, causing its walls to thicken. The left ventricle is the main pumping station of the heart. pumped. The thickening makes it hard for the left ventricle to pump blood and can result in heart failure.
On average, the study revealed that a biomarker linked to heart stress decreased by 64%. Another measurement of how well the heart is pumping blood is the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).
The results showed that all the patients maintained a normal level of LVEF. Thus, the treatment reduced stress on the heart without interfering with its ability to pump. The market for this treatment is much larger, affecting up to 630,000 people in the United States alone.
However, HCM does have an approved treatment: <a href="https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NYSE/BMY/">Bristol Myers Squibb&#39;s (NYSE: </a><a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bmy#NYSE">BMY</a>) Camzyos. The drug showed a <a href="https://news.bms.com/news/corporate-financial/2022/Mavacamten-Demonstrated-Significant-Reduction-in-Need-for-Septal-Reduction-Therapy-in-Symptomatic-Obstructive-HCM-Patients-in-Phase-3-VALOR-Trial/default.aspx#:~:text=Improvement%20in%20biomarkers%20of%20cardiac,greater%20(p%3C0.0001).">67% reduction</a> in the same biomarker as EDG-7500. However, a very small number of patients did see their LVEF levels fall below normal. At this point, the drugs appear to have similar levels of safety and efficacy. Two and a half years ago, Camzyos received approval. It generated $139 million last quarter, up by 184% from the previous year.
<a href="https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NASDAQ/CYTK/">Cytokinetics&#39; (NASDAQ: </a><a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cytk#NASDAQ">CYTK</a>) aficamten, another competitor, is further along but has yet to receive approval. <a href="https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/edgewise-therapeutics-heart-med-candidate-sends-shares-soaring-early-data">According to Fierce Biotech</a>, analysts at Mizuho Securities say the results of the two drugs look similar.
When it comes to Wall Street, several analysts still see significant upside in Edgewise. At least four firms have increased their price targets on Edgewise since it released Phase 2 results for EDG-7500.
Based on the average of those four targets, the implied upside of Edgewise is 55%, based on the Sept. 24 closing price of nearly $26. The most bullish analyst, Wedbush, thinks Edgewise could rise 70%.
<h3>Final Thoughts On Edgewise</h3>
At the end of the day, the party is certainly not over for Edgewise until it is. More good news about the drug treatments would continue to boost the stock price. But, it will take a long time for sales to justify its high valuation. The probability of treatments getting approved is low, at around <a href="https://www.cbo.gov/publication/57126#:~:text=Only%20about%2012%20percent%20of,than%20%242%20billion%20per%20drug.">12% on average</a>.
The results of EDG-7500 do show promise not only in their comparability to the already approved treatment but also in the revenue that Bristol-Myers has demonstrated. However, with Sevasemten in Phase 3 trials for Becker MD, the company could be the first to get an approved treatment in that market.

HC Wainwright & Co. Reiterates Buy on Cytokinetics, Maintains $90 Price Target

Cytokinetics, Incorporated (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CYTK#NASDAQ">CYTK</a>) today announced that additional data from SEQUOIA-HCM (Safety, Efficacy, and Quantitative Understanding of Obstruction Impact of Aficamten in HCM), the pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of aficamten in patients with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), were presented at the Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Medical Society (HCMS) Scientific Sessions by Anjali T. Owens, M.D., Medical Director of the Center for Inherited Cardiac Disease and Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. &nbsp;
A new analysis from SEQUOIA-HCM showed that treatment with aficamten was associated with beneficial changes in five indices reflecting structural, electrophysiologic and biomarker changes in patients from SEQUOIA-HCM. This analysis was performed in patients treated with aficamten and compared to placebo, at 24 weeks as follows:
<ul>
<li>Improvement in maximal wall thickness by ≥1.5 mm (n = 282; 47.9% vs 30.7%; p=0.003)</li>
<li>Improvement in left atrial volume index (LAVI) category in those with mild, moderate, or severe enlargement at baseline (n = 185; 46.8% vs. 18.7%; p&lt;0.001)</li>
<li>Resolution of ECG changes consistent with left ventricular hypertrophy (n = 282; 19.0% vs. 4.3%; p&lt;0.001)</li>
<li>Normalization of hyperdynamic left ventricular ejection fraction (defined as ≥72%) into the normal range (n = 282; 35.2% vs 20.7%; p&lt;0.007)</li>
<li>Reduction in NT-proBNP by ≥50% from baseline (n = 282; 81.7% vs. 7.1%; p&lt;0.001). &nbsp;</li>
</ul>
Overall, 83.8% of patients treated with aficamten experienced favorable effects in at least one of the five domains, compared to 39.3% of patients on placebo (p&lt;0.001, NNT = 2.2).

Cytokinetics's Options Frenzy: What You Need to Know

Monday, Cytokinetics, Incorporated&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CYTK#NASDAQ">CYTK</a>) announced that data from the Phase 1 study of CK-4021586 (CK-586) were presented in a poster session at the American College of Clinical Pharmacology Annual <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/g40770281/cytokinetics-announces-data-from-phase-1-study-of-ck-4021586" rel="noreferrer noopener">Meeting in Bethesda, MD</a>.
The study met its primary and secondary objectives to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single and multiple oral doses of CK-586.
CK-586 is a cardiac myosin inhibitor in development for the potential treatment of a subgroup of patients with symptomatic HFpEF with hypercontractility and ventricular hypertrophy.
The study data showed that CK-586 was safe and well tolerated in healthy participants.
No serious adverse events were observed, and the stopping criteria for the study were not met.
The half-life of CK-586 was observed to be in the range of 14 to 17 hours.
CK-586 demonstrated dose-linearity without a change in half-life over a wide range of exposures, with steady-state appearing evident within seven days of dosing.
Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) decreased from baseline in an exposure-dependent manner, and the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationship appeared shallow and predictable.
The ejection fraction measures how well the heart is functioning. It's expressed as a percentage and indicates how much blood the heart pumps out with each contraction. At the highest single dose of 600 mg, the mean decrease in LVEF was &lt;5%.
These results demonstrate pharmacologic properties that may enable once-daily fixed-dose administration in the future. Preparations for a Phase 2 clinical trial in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are underway, and the trial is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Price Action: CYTK stock is up 2.71% at $55.56 at last check Monday.
