Shares of Omeros surged after the pharmaceutical company received Food and Drug Administration approval for its Yartemlea treatment.

The stock was up 78% to $15.60 on Wednesday and was briefly paused for volatility. Shares have risen 56% this year.

The Seattle-based pharmaceutical company said Wednesday that the FDA greenlit Yartemlea for patients ages 2 and older who experience a serious complication from stem-cell transplant procedures.

The FDA approval makes Yartemlea the only approved treatment that works by inhibiting the effector enzyme of the lectin pathway, Omeros said. It said it is finalizing preparations for a product launch in the U.S. next month.
