Why Affimed Shares Are Soaring

Author: Erica Kollmann | June 03, 2024 12:58pm

Affimed N.V. (NASDAQ:AFMD) shares are trading higher Monday after the company announced additional follow-up data from the on-going AFM24-102 study in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

The Details:

Affimed said in 17 EGFR wild-type (EGFRwt) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who failed chemotherapy and PD-1/PD-L1, AFM24 plus atezolizumab achieved four objective responses, three of four responses were ongoing for more than 7 months and progression free survival (PFS) was 5.9 months.

“The efficacy of the combination of AFM24 and atezolizumab in these heavily pretreated NSCLC patients is encouraging and supports our hypothesis of a synergistic activity of AFM24 with PD-1/PD-L1 blockade. We believe the durability of the responses in EGFRwt tumors is remarkable and is unlikely driven by PD-1/PD-L1 blockade alone, as all patients with responses had documented progression on their previous PD-1/PD-L1 therapy,” said Dr. Andreas Harstrick, CEO of Affimed. 

HC Wainwright & Co. reiterated its Buy rating on Affimed and maintained a $10 price target on Monday. 

According to data from Benzinga Pro, Affimed shares are trading above the stock’s 50-day moving average of $5.31 and nearly the stock's entire float of 14.313 million shares has already changed hands in the session.
