Patrick Trucchio has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors, primarily focusing on the promising clinical data and strategic positioning of Immunocore Holdings. The recent data from Immatics’ PRAME-targeted T cell therapy, which showed significant efficacy in treating metastatic uveal melanoma, reinforces the potential of Immunocore’s brenetafusp program. The positive results, including a high overall response rate and durable responses, validate PRAME as a potent target for immunotherapy, thereby strengthening confidence in Immunocore’s approach.
Furthermore, the safety profile of PRAME-directed therapies, demonstrated by manageable adverse events, aligns with the tolerability seen in Immunocore’s trials, suggesting a favorable therapeutic index. This consistency in safety across different modalities reduces the risk associated with Immunocore’s PRAME franchise. The ability of brenetafusp to be administered off-the-shelf with repeat dosing offers a competitive advantage, supporting the Buy rating and the $100 price target set by Trucchio.
