Unique ADC Constructs Boost Ambrx Biopharma's Profile: Analyst Sees Optimistic Outlook

RBC Capital Markets initiated coverage on Ambrx Biopharma Inc AMAM With an Outperform rating and a price target of $29.

With a promising prostate cancer program arising from a distinct platform in the emerging ADC space and an undervalued asset in Her2+ breast cancer, analysts Brian Abrahams and Leonid Timashev foresee the potential for significant growth as the company's lead programs receive additional data, further reducing risks.

According to the analysts, the company's unique ADC constructs may provide therapeutic advantages over other products, enhancing the profiles of their lead drugs and potentially enabling the continuous development of pipeline programs in the long run.

RBC analysts acknowledge that the competitive landscape has kept expectations conservative. If clear evidence of post-Enhertu activity emerges from the expected trial of ARX788 updates over the next 18 months, and if ILD/ocular events are adequately managed, it would reignite enthusiasm for what they consider to be a substantial annual U.S. sales opportunity of approximately $400 million.

Price Action: AMAM shares are up 2.00% at $15.30 on the last check Monday.
