Update: Riding high on immuno-oncology

Medigene shares have doubled in the last two months, a surge we attribute to renewed investor enthusiasm for its emerging cancer immunotherapy franchise. With a recent flurry of licensing deals over CAR-T technology platforms and products, at a time of widespread excitement about the transformational potential of this approach to treating certain cancers, Medigene’s preclinical stage adoptive TCR (T-cell receptor) therapy may be attracting particular interest. We raise our valuation to €175m, or €12.55 per share, on re-evaluation of the cancer immunotherapy franchise.
