JPMorgan on Thursday shared updated thoughts on Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RARE#NASDAQ">RARE</a>) setrusumab program in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">osteogenesis imperfecta (OI)</a>.
In a fourth-quarter 2024 press release, the company said patients continue dosing in the Phase 3&nbsp;Orbit&nbsp;and&nbsp;Cosmic&nbsp;trials, which evaluate setrusumab in pediatric and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/g43711647/ultragenyx-reports-fourth-quarter-and-full-year-2024-financial-results-and-corporate-update" rel="noreferrer noopener">young adult patients with OI</a>.
The randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 3 portion of the&nbsp;Orbit&nbsp;study is progressing toward the second interim analysis in mid-2025 or a final analysis in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Patients in the&nbsp;Cosmic&nbsp;study continue to be treated with either setrusumab or intravenous bisphosphonates (IV-BP) therapy and will be evaluated in parallel with the&nbsp;Orbit&nbsp;interim and final analyses.
JPMorgan analyst Anupam Rama said Thursday, &#8220;Ultragenyx remains on the J.P. Morgan US Equity Analyst Focus List.&#8221;
Rama maintains the Overweight rating and writes, &#8220;We believe Ultragenyx is uniquely positioned in the long term with a broad and diverse pipeline of orphan disease assets and a highly regarded management team with a strong track record in the space.&#8221;
The analyst believes the second interim analysis (IA2) of ORBIT has a much better chance of achieving statistical significance for the primary endpoint, the annualized fracture rate (AFR), compared to the first interim analysis (IA1).
If IA2 meets statistical significance, the analyst expects Ultragenyx stock to rise to around the mid-$60s to low-$70s per share. If it falls short, the stock could drop to the mid-$20s to low-$30s, making the potential reward outweigh the risk.
JPMorgan increased the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/RARE/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from $104 to $117</a> based on the updated setrusumab revenue build, UX111 in MPS3A addition to the model, and expense adjustments.
In February, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration accepted for review the Biologics License Application seeking accelerated approval for UX111 (ABO-102) AAV gene therapy as a treatment for patients with Sanfilippo syndrome type A, with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/g43779022/ultragenyx-announces-fda-acceptance-and-priority-review-of-the-biologics-license-application-bla-f" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">action date of Aug. 18</a>.

Breaking Down Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical: 11 Analysts Share Their Views

In conjunction with the 2025 J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, the analyst hosted an investor lunch with Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RARE#NASDAQ">RARE</a>).
The analyst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/RARE/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">keeps an Overweight rating</a> on Ultragenyx with a price target of $102 and says the company is uniquely positioned in the long term with an expansive and diverse pipeline of orphan disease assets and highly regarded management. JP Morgan sees multiple value-creating catalysts over the next six to 18 months.
<ul>
<li>Ultragenyx&#8217;s recent meeting focused on setrusumab and the ongoing Phase 3 ORBIT trial. The analyst noted that the company remains confident in the trial&#8217;s success, with a second interim analysis expected by mid-2025 and final results by the end of 2025.</li>
<li>At current share levels, the analyst noted the market is not fully valuing the setrusumab program and anticipates positive trial data could push Ultragenyx stock price to a ~$7-handle.</li>
<li>Ultragenyx emphasized that moving forward to the second interim analysis does not change the study&#8217;s likelihood of success. Instead, the additional time allows for clearer differentiation between the setrusumab and placebo groups, with the minimum follow-up increasing from 7 months in the first interim analysis to 12 months in the second.</li>
<li>On the commercial front, Ultragenyx plans to leverage its existing Crysvita infrastructure in the U.S. for setrusumab, given overlapping call points.</li>
<li>Approval could also make the company eligible for a Priority Review Voucher, providing a potential source of non-dilutive capital. In Europe, where Mereo owns the rights, Ultragenyx will lead the regulatory filing process and anticipates submitting around 2-3 months after the U.S. filing.</li>
</ul>
On Sunday, Ultragenyx reported preliminary 2024 revenue of $555 million—$560 million, compared to the consensus of $543.02 million.
Crysvita&#8217;s revenue for 2024 is estimated to be $405 million—$410 million, and Dojolvi&#8217;s revenue is estimated to be $87 million—$89 million.
The company expects 2025 sales of $640 million—$670 million versus a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/g42935224/ultragenyx-reports-preliminary-2024-revenue-financial-guidance-for-2025-pipeline-updates-and-2025-" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $648.54 million</a>.
Price Action: RARE stock is up 4.31% at $41.75 at last check Wednesday.

Ultragenyx Reported Sunday Preliminary 2024 Total Revenue Of $555M To $560M, Exceeding Top End Of Guidance; 2025 Expected Total Revenue Guidance Of $640M To $670M

William Blair has initiated coverage on Denali Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DNLI#NASDAQ">DNLI</a>), a company focused on developing drugs for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DNLI" rel="noreferrer noopener">neurodegenerative diseases</a>.
The analyst highlights that Denali is developing a specialized transport vehicle (TV) platform to enhance the delivery of treatments across the blood-brain barrier.
It stands out from competitors with its promising potential for top-tier performance and scalability across different therapies and conditions.
The company&#8217;s lead program Tividenofusp alfa, an enzyme-replacement therapy for Hunter syndrome, shows promise as a best-in-class treatment, the analyst highlights.
William Blair has initiated with an Outperform rating and a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DNLI/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">fair value of $35 per share</a>.
The company has reached an agreement with the FDA on the requirements for accelerated approval and plans to submit a biologics license application <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/g40684612/denali-therapeutics-announces-successful-meeting-with-the-fda-and-plans-to-file-for-accelerated-ap" rel="noreferrer noopener">in early 2025</a>.
Insights gained from tividenofusp alfa may also simplify the development and approval process for future treatments targeting other lysosomal storage diseases, such as DNL126 for Sanfilippo syndrome type A.
Most recently, Denali Therapeutics initiated dosing in a global BEACON Phase 2a trial of BIIB122 (DNL151) for LRRK2-associated <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/g42336987/denali-therapeutics-announces-first-participant-dosed-in-phase-2a-study-of-lrrk2-inhibitor-biib122" rel="noreferrer noopener">Parkinson&#8217;s disease</a>.
Denali&#8217;s market cap stands at $2.93 billion, with an enterprise value of $2.26 billion.
Compared to its peers in neuroscience, rare diseases, and platform biotech, its valuation is lower than some but higher than others, reflecting the strength of its pipeline and technology.
William Blair notes the potential for significant growth as Denali advances its assets, including tividenofusp, which might receive accelerated approval and priority review by late 2025.
If additional clinical data reduces risks associated with its TV-enabled approach, Denali could achieve valuations similar to companies like Avidity Biosciences Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RNA#NASDAQ">RNA</a>), Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RARE#NASDAQ">RARE</a>), Biogen Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIIB#NASDAQ">BIIB</a>), Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc.(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALNY#NASDAQ">ALNY</a>), and Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IONS#NASDAQ">IONS</a>).
Price Action: DNLI stock is up 3.17% at $21.50 at the last check on Friday.
