Mixed Response on Infinity Pharma as Shares Plunge Amid Phase I Data

In reports published on Monday, Wells Fargo analyst Matthew Andrews and Piper Jaffray analyst Ian Somaiya had mixed responses on Infinity Pharma (NASDAQ: INFI) CLL drug data.

Wells Fargo calls the data "Very Solid" as its Phase 1/2 data on IPI-145 in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) continued to demonstrate "competitive efficacy profile" and tolerable safety profile. In addition, Infinity is seen to have taken appropriate steps to address a few new infectious/respiratory side effects that may raise investor concerns in N-T. Andrews gave Infinity an Outperform rating with price target at $46.50.
