Shares of AnaptysBio were trading higher in the after-hours market following results from the company's rosnilimab trial as a treatment for patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
After the bell, the company's shares were trading 6.2% higher, at $25. The stock closed Tuesday's regular session with a 7.5% gain at $23.52.
The company said in a global 424-patient Phase 2b trial, its investigational rosnilimab demonstrated a best-in-disease profile in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. The company also said rosnilimab demonstrated favorable safety and tolerability, particularly when compared to standard of care biologics or Janus kinase inhibitors.
AnaptysBio said its ongoing Phase 2 study for rosnilimab in ulcerative colitis is on track to report initial data in the fourth quarter.
