On October 26, Johnson & Johnson rose 3.1% in Regular Trading, trading at $271.8725/share, with turnover of $238 million.
The move followed new oncology trial data released late Sunday showing that the investigational Rybrevant Faspro combination delivered a 77% confirmed response rate in a phase 1b/2 study in patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck cancer.
Recent pipeline updates add context to the move. A separate company update said its first-in-class RIPTAC molecule JNJ-6143 produced a 75% tumor response rate in advanced prostate cancer, while earlier phase 3 data showed Tremfya maintained or improved fistula remission through 48 weeks in Crohn's disease. Even so, one broker maintained a neutral stance, arguing that valuation premium could limit upside despite strong cancer data.
