Biotech stocks are often at the mercy of several catalysts – most of which are make-or-break events.
Benzinga’s FDA calendar is a user-friendly, dynamically updated investment tool that is a ‘must-have’ for those looking to capitalize on the volatility that is typical of trading biotech stocks.
The calendar lists all key catalysts that can materially impact stocks, including:
- PDUFA dates, or in other words FDA decision dates
- Filing schedules for regulatory applications such as new drug application, or NDA, supplemental NDA, Biologic License Application, or BLA, supplemental BLA, Premarket Approval Application, or Premarket Notification 510(k), etc.
- FDA decisions (approvals/complete response letter/delay)
- According to special statuses for treatment options, including orphan drug designation, rare disease designation, accelerated approval, priority review etc.
- FDA’s Advisory Committee, or Adcom, meetings
- Review meetings with FDA (pre-investigational new drug application meetings, end-of-phase meetings, Type A, Type B and Type C meetings)
- Decisions by overseas regulatory agencies
- Clinical data readouts
- Presentation of data at various scientific conferences
FDA events are important for both long term and short term investors. Announcements can be displayed in calendar form, listed within company detail pages and/or used as push notifications for user engagement.
Investors can use this data to evaluate the potential impact of FDA-related events on a company’s stock price, and to adjust their investment strategies accordingly. For example, positive news related to a drug approval could lead to a rise in a company’s stock price, while negative news could lead to a decline.
Healthcare professionals can use this data to stay informed about upcoming drug approvals and other important regulatory actions, and to ensure that they are providing their patients with the most up-to-date information on potential treatment options.
