H.C. Wainwright raised the firm’s price target on Okyo Pharma to $7 from $6 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. OK-101 achieved statistical significance for multiple signs and symptoms of dry eye disease, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm believes OK-101’s “rapid onset of action, durable improvement and placebo-like tolerability profile” compare favorably to the established therapies on the market. This could make OK-101 a preferred choice by physicians and patients if it obtains regulatory approval, says the firm, which increased the probability of approval to 35% from 30%.
