In April, the company appointed Dr. Erin Venker, M.D. as CEO of Immunovant and Tiago Girao. The analyst expects this leadership change to enhance clinical execution and strategic decision-making. Tsao believes the change will accelerate the development of the company's lead FcRn inhibitor, IMVT-1402.
Additionally, IMVT-1402 is being developed for multiple high-value autoimmune indications including Graves Disease, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren’s Disease, and more. Tsao anticipates the approval of IMVT-1402 will enhance the strategic and financial prospects of the company thereby justifying the Buy rating.
