Deciphera initiated at buy at Cowen on Qinlock growth, pipeline; sees 68% upside

Deciphera Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:DCPH) has been initiated as a buy at Cowen based on growth in sales of its advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor treatment Qinlock (ripretinib) and its pipeline. The firm has a $25 price target (~68% upside based on Friday's close). Analyst Tyler Van Buren said that Decipera (DCPH) pipeline is "poised to break out" and a significant catalyst could come next month at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) annual meeting with data on vimseltinib and DCC-3116. Vimseltinib is in phase 1/2 for tenosynovial giant cell tumor, while DCC-3116 is in phase 1 for RAS/RAF mutant cancers in combination with Mekinist (trametinib). He added he sees peak sales of both candidates at a combined ~$1.3B. Seeking Alpha's Quant Rating view Deciphera as a buy with high marks for momentum, growth, and revisions.

Deciphera Pharmaceuticals: The 75% Haircut Doesn't Seem Justified

Deciphera Pharmaceuticals is the unusual case of a commercial-stage company whose drug succeeds at first but then has a major setback. Top-line data from a key phase 3 trial suggest that their flagship drug will not be moving from later-line to second-line therapy for GIST. With buoying expenses, Deciphera needs to make a splash to increase revenues quickly, or else dilution is a serious risk. Though risky overall, Deciphera at these levels presents a very interesting risk/benefit case.
