Dow Jones03-23

By Connor Hart

 

Shares of Apogee Therapeutics climbed after the company disclosed what it said were positive results from a mid-stage trial of its treatment for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, a chronic skin condition that causes itchy, dry skin and rashes.

The stock rose 17%, to $77.27, shortly after Monday's opening bell. Shares are up 90% over the past year.

The biotechnology company said before the bell that its therapy, zumilokibart, demonstrated durable maintenance of response with both three- and six-month maintenance dosing regimens.

The data marks a significant milestone for the drug, Chief Executive Michael Henderson said, noting its "potential to transform the treatment paradigm as the first six-month dosed therapeutic for patients with AD."
