Bicycle Therapeutics (BCYC – Research Report), the Healthcare sector company, was revisited by a Wall Street analyst today. Analyst Kelly Shi from Jefferies maintained a Buy rating on the stock and has a $42.00 price target.
Kelly Shi has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including promising clinical trial results and a strong financial position. Bicycle Therapeutics has shown encouraging data from its Phase 1 and Phase 2 trials of Zele + Pembro, particularly in first-line urothelial cancer, where the overall response rate has improved and the complete response rate is notably higher compared to competing treatments. This suggests potential for longer durability and differentiated safety profiles, which are positive indicators for future success.
Furthermore, Bicycle Therapeutics is advancing its pipeline with plans to initiate multiple trials in NECTIN4 gene-amplified cancers, leveraging promising biomarker data that shows higher response rates in certain cancer types. The company is also making progress with its radionuclide conjugate programs, with first-in-human imaging data supporting its unique mechanism of action. Financially, the company is well-positioned with substantial cash reserves to support its operations and clinical development plans into the second half of 2027, providing a solid runway for continued growth and innovation.
