Sosei Group (4565 JP) shares sold off heavily after a major setback in partner’s clinical trial. On June 26, Pfizer Inc (PFE US) decided to discontinue the development of lotiglipron (PF-07081532).
PF-07081532 is one of three clinical candidates nominated by Pfizer during its multi-target drug discovery collaboration with Sosei to research and develop potential new medicines.
As lotiglipron was the most advanced clinical candidate using Sosei’s drug discovery platform, the heavy sell-off seen in Sosei shares should not be considered as overreaction.
