Leading Companies Being Defined in the Hunt for a NASH Treatment
ACCESSWIRE - Thu Mar 27, 9:32AM CDT
March 27, 2014 / The race to develop a treatment for Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) is getting a lot of airtime lately, pointing to the severity of the disease, poor prognosis and desperate need for a treatment. The space has only a handful of competitors, with most seeing rising valuations due to the tremendous peak sales that analysts are projecting for products that make it to market. What is particularly unique to this disease is not only the lack of any approved treatments, but also the influx of attention and growing broad body of research by companies like Intercept Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ICPT), Galmed Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: GLMD) and Galectin Therapeutics (NASDAQ: GALT) that shows treatments are on the horizon, which gives these equities considerable upside.
