GRI Bio announced additional "positive" data from its recently completed Phase 2a clinical study of GRI-0621 in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, IPF, further strengthening potential clinical proof-of-concept and reinforcing the therapeutic differentiation of GRI-0621. Newly reported RNA-sequencing differential gene expression data demonstrate that treatment with GRI-0621 resulted in significant improvement across genes associated with lung injury, myofibroblast activation, extracellular matrix deposition, fibrosis progression, and alveolar basement membrane and epithelial repair compared to placebo. These findings represent a potential independent validation of previously reported biomarker, functional and clinical signals from the Phase 2a study.
Wall Street analysts forecast GRI stock price to rise over the next 12 months. According to Wall Street analysts, the average 1-year price target for GRI is 23.00 USD with a low forecast of 10.00 USD and a high forecast of 36.00 USD. However, analyst price targets are subjective and often lag stock prices, so investors should focus on the objective reasons behind analyst rating changes, which better reflect the company's fundamentals.
