Vertex well in lead but Galapagos a competitor, says Piper Jaffray Piper Jaffray analyst Edward Tenthoff says that while Galapagos NV (GLPG) and AbbVie's (ABBV) CFTR potentiator GLPG1837 is " clearly a competitor" following the Phase II SAPHIRA-1 data,
Vertex Pharmaceuticals (VRTX) remains "well in the lead." The Phase III KALYDECO plus follow-on VX-661 data is expected in the first half of 2017 while the Phase II triple combination data with
VX-440 and VX-152 is expected in the second half of the year, Tenthoff tells investors in a research note. He reiterates an Overweight rating on Vertex with a $129 price target.
