Buy Rating Justified by Promising Efficacy and Safety Profile of Olema Pharmaceuticals’ Drug Combination in Clinical Studies

Capital One Financial analyst Naureen Quibria has reiterated their bullish stance on OLMA stock, giving a Buy rating today.

Naureen Quibria’s rating is based on the positive indications from recent clinical studies and the competitive safety profile demonstrated by Olema Pharmaceuticals’ product. Olema’s ongoing Phase 1b study showcases the potential of palazestrant in combination with ribociclib, which is particularly encouraging given the lack of clinically significant impact on drug exposure when these two therapies are paired. The initial clinical benefit rate (CBR) observed in the study is notably high and compares favorably against historical data in the field of hormone receptor positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (HR+/HER2- mBC).
Moreover, the safety data of the palazestrant and ribociclib combination underscores a lower incidence of serious adverse events compared to other similar therapeutic studies, with reversible neutropenia being the most significant finding, mostly attributable to ribociclib. While acknowledging the need for more mature data to better understand the full efficacy profile, Quibria remains optimistic about the potential market position of this drug combination, given its promising efficacy and manageable safety profile relative to other treatments in this space. This forms the basis for the Buy rating assigned to Olema Pharmaceuticals.

In another report released today, H.C. Wainwright also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $30.00 price target.
