Helixmith (084990 KS): Overhang on Phase 3 Clinical Trial Uncertainty Got Removed

By Tina Banerjee

  • Helixmith (084990 KS) shares have been sliding since end of June due to delay in receiving the recommendation from the U.S. data monitoring committee for its phase 3 clinical trial.
  • On August 18, Helixmith received recommendation to continue phase 3 clinical trial of its lead candidate Engensis (VM202) for diabetic peripheral neuropathy, thereby removing the overhang.
  • Engensis has attracted high interest from investors, as it is targeting a large addressable patient population of nearly 8.5 million in the U.S. alone, with high unmet medical need.
