Aegis Capital has reiterated a ‘Buy’ rating and price target of $25 on shares of Concert Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: CNCE). The company recently said it has received notice from the FDA that its CTP-543 phase 2a clinical trial for alopecia areata has been placed on clinical hold. The FDA is requesting a review of non-clinical toxicology studies to evaluate the planned one-year dosing. Concert said it intends to submit a response shortly, which the FDA will review within 30 days. The analyst noted the hold and said he believes the issue will be easily resolved without a long delay in Concert’s clinical trial.
