12 Analysts Have This To Say About Sarepta Therapeutics

Volatility returned to Wall Street on Tuesday, with all major indexes trading in negative territory by midday in New York. Investors weighed the economic impact of potential tariffs from the Trump administration while questioning whether the long-standing dominance of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/03/44379453/equity-exposure-plummets-cash-holdings-jump-as-investors-rethink-us-exceptionalism-bank-of-america-survey">U.S. equities has peaked. </a>
The S&amp;P 500 fell 1.1%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 dropped 1.5%. Blue-chip stocks provided no relief with the Dow Jones down 0.8%.
Data from Bank of America's Global Fund Manager Survey, released Tuesday, signaled a significant shift in asset allocation. Investor exposure to U.S. equities plunged 40 percentage points month-over-month to a net 23% underweight, the lowest level since June 2023. 
The Federal Reserve is set to hold its second policy meeting of the year on Wednesday. While markets widely expect interest rates to remain at 4%-4.25%, investors brace for updated economic projections that may reflect higher inflation estimates due to the tariff impact.
All Magnificent Seven tech giants traded in the red on Tuesday, with the Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAGS#NYSE">MAGS</a>) hitting a seven-month low.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) remained under pressure, sliding 2.6% to $81,855.

12 Health Care Stocks Moving In Tuesday's Intraday Session

Needham Reiterates Buy on Sarepta Therapeutics, Maintains $202 Price Target

On Tuesday, Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SRPT#NASDAQ">SRPT</a>) stock is sliding. The company shared an update on Elevidys (delandistrogene moxeparvovec-rokl), the only approved gene therapy in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
The company reported a patient death following treatment with Elevidys, having suffered acute liver failure.
Acute liver injury is a known possible side effect of Elevidys and other AAV-mediated gene therapies and is highlighted in the prescribing information.

The company <a target="_blank" href="https://investorrelations.sarepta.com/static-files/0d505d91-6722-4528-aae0-1e99fcbc37e5" rel="noreferrer noopener">says</a> although it is not a new safety signal and the benefit-risk of Elevidys remains positive, acute liver failure leading to death represents a severity of acute liver injury not previously reported for Elevidys, which to date has been used to treat more than 800 patients in clinical trials or as a prescribed therapy.
In addition, testing revealed that this patient had a recent cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, which the treating physician identified as a possible contributing factor. CMV can infect and damage the liver, a condition known as CMV hepatitis.
Elevidys is a single-dose, adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based gene transfer therapy for intravenous infusion designed to address the underlying genetic cause of Duchenne muscular dystrophy – mutations or changes in the DMD gene that result in the lack of dystrophin protein – through the delivery of a transgene that codes for the targeted production of Elevidys micro-dystrophin in skeletal muscle.
In January, Sarepta Therapeutics&nbsp;released topline results from Part 2 of the EMBARK <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/25/01/43232532/sarepta-therapeutics-duchenne-gene-therapy-shows-sustained-benefits-and-disease-stabilization-at-two-years" rel="noreferrer noopener">Phase 3 study of Elevidys</a>.
Despite being one year older (average age 7.18 years) than those treated in Part 1 (average age 5.98 years), crossover-treated patients showed clinically meaningful and statistically significant functional benefit for NSAA, Time to Rise (TTR) and 10-meter walk/run (10MWR) function tests compared with a pre-specified, propensity-weighted external control group.
In June 2024, the FDA approved the labeled indication for&nbsp;Elevidys to include individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who have a confirmed mutation in the&nbsp;DMD gene and are at&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39437296/sareptas-expanded-fda-approval-for-elevidys-potentially-shaping-future-fda-reviews-" rel="noreferrer noopener">least&nbsp;four years old</a>.
Price Action: SRPT stock is down 22.90% at $78.10 during the premarket session at the last check Tuesday.
