Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ: REGN) crashed more than 15% this morning on disappointing data from Phase 3 trials of its experimental drug itepekimab. Itepekimab is a drug candidate for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) that the biotech firm developed with Paris headquartered Sanofi.
Regeneron shares fell nearly 13% before the bell on Friday after its experimental drug for patients with a type of lung condition commonly called "smoker's lung" failed a late-stage trial, although it succeeded in another.
Sanofi and Regeneron said that drug candidate Itepekimab didn't meet primary endpoint in a phase three study, although a benefit was seen earlier in the trial.
