Exicure stock surged after the biopharmaceutical company announced positive results from a Phase 2 trial of its blood cancer treatment.
The stock more than doubled in after-hours trading Monday to $11.91, after closing at $5.33.
The company said 90% of patients with multiple myeloma who were undergoing stem cell treatment and received doses of burixafor, in combination with certain other treatments, achieved the primary endpoint of the study.
The treatment was effective even for participants who had previously received daratumumab, a therapy associated with reduced stem cell mobilization, Exicure said.
The company added that the burixafor course of treatment demonstrated a good safety profile.
