<h3>Stocks In Focus</h3>

<h3>Sarepta&#39;s Second DMD Therapy Snags FDA Approval</h3>

Sarepta Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/SRPT#NASDAQ">SRPT</a>) said the FDA has granted accelerated approval for its Vyondys 53, aka golodirsen &mdash; an antisense oligonucleotide &mdash;&nbsp;for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, or DMD, in patients with a confirmed mutation amenable to exon 53 skipping.

Continued approval may be contingent on confirmation of a clinical benefit in the post-marketing confirmatory trial, the company said.&nbsp;

In August,&nbsp;the FDA handed down a complete response to the originally submitted NDA. The company resubmitted the application.

Vyondys 53 is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/19/02/13268347/analysts-laud-sareptas-increasingly-active-gene-therapy"> Sarepta&#39;s </a> second exon-skipping RNA therapy, and is likely to treat up to 8% of DMD patients. Along with the already approved EXONDYS 51, the company now offers treatment options for about 20% of DMD patients in the U.S.

The stock was jumping 29.39% to $130 in Friday&#39;s premarket session.

<h3>Oncternal&#39;s Breast Cancer Treatment Found Safe, Effective In Early Stage Trial</h3>

Oncternal Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/ONCT#NASDAQ">ONCT</a>) presented interim data at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium from the ongoing Phase 1b clinical study of cirmtuzumab, its investigational anti-ROR1 monoclonal antibody, in combination with Bristol-Myers Squibb&#39;s paclitaxel chemo drug in patients with HER2-negative metastatic, or locally advanced unresectable breast cancer. The results showed that four out of the seven evaluable patients achieved partial response&nbsp;for an objective response rate of 57%, including one partial response.

The combination was well-tolerated in the study, the company said.

The stock rose 1.74% to $4.68 in the premarket session.&nbsp;

<h3>Pfizer&#39;s Xeljanz Receives Label Expansion For Ulcerative Colitis</h3>

Pfizer Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>) said the FDA approved its Xeljanz extended-release 11mg and 22mg tablets&nbsp;for once-daily treatment of adult patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis after an inadequate response or intolerance to TNF blockers.

With this approval, Xeljanz has now been approved for three indications.

<h3>NewLink Genetics Spurns Takeover Bid By OTC-listed Evercel</h3>

Evercel, Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/EVRC#OTC">EVRC</a>) said NewLink Genetics Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/NLNK#NASDAQ">NLNK</a>) has rejected alternative acquisition offers, including one for $1.75 per share. The rejection comes in the wake of NewLink Genetics agreeing to merge with privately held Lumos Pharma Inc.

&quot;We tried to engage in a good faith discussion with NewLink&#39;s Board of Directors in order to deliver a superior offer to shareholders,&quot; said Evercel CEO Daniel Allen.&nbsp;

&quot;However, NewLink&#39;s Board turned down our offer without even engaging in any discussion with us.&quot;

NewLink Genetics shares were up 2.5% to $1.64 in the premarket session.&nbsp;

<h3>Roche Late-Stage Skin Cancer Study Meets Primary Endpoint</h3>

Roche Holdings AG Basel ADR&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/RHHBY#OTC">RHHBY</a>)&#39;s Genentech unit said the Phase 3 IMspire 150 study that evaluated the addition of Tecentriq to Cotellic and Zelboraf in patients with previously untreated BRAF V600 mutation-positive advanced melanoma met the primary endpoint of progression-free survival.

The triple combo helped reduce the risk of disease worsening or death compared to placebo plus Cotellic and Zelboraf, the company said.&nbsp;

Cotellic has been licensed to Genetech by Exelixis, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/EXEL#NASDAQ">EXEL</a>). The licensing agreement provides for Exelixis receiving an initial equal share of U.S. profits and losses that will decrease as sales increase. Exelixis is to share U.S. commercialization costs. Outside of the U.S., Exelixis is eligible to receive royalties on any sales.

<h3>Applied DNA Sciences Q4 Results Trail Expectations</h3>

Applied DNA Sciences Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/APDN#NASDAQ">APDN</a>)&#39;s fourth-quarter revenue&nbsp;climbed 40% year-over-year to $1.7 million. The net loss narrowed from $4.62 per share to $1.44 per share.

The results trailed expectations.

The stock slipped 6.1% to $4 in the premarket session.&nbsp;

<h3>Offerings</h3>

Aquestive Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/AQST#NASDAQ">AQST</a>) said it has priced its previously announced public offering of 7 million shares at $5 per share for gross proceeds of $35 million. The offering is expected to close Dec. 17.

The stock was down 12.69% to $5.85 in Friday&#39;s premarket session.&nbsp;
