BTIG tells investors in a research note that Gilead’s (GILD) proposed acquisition of CymaBay (CBAY) “makes perfect sense,” as the firm sees seladelpar emerging as the preferred peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor agonist for the treatment of primary biliary cholangitis and isn’t aware of any other PBC programs in Gilead’s pipeline. The firm made no change to its Buy rating or $26 price target on CymaBay shares.
