Biohaven Ltd. shared an R&D presentation today in relation to its epilepsy asset and also updated on its degrader programs. BHVN - spun out of the original Biohaven after its acquisition by Pfizer - also has degrader assets focused on autoimmune diseases. Furthermore, there is a Parkinson's program and Obesity program, and some notable catalysts are arriving this year, e.g., pivotal epilepsy topline data.
BHV-1300 demonstrated deep, rapid, and sustained lowering of pathogenic TSHR autoantibodies (TSHR-IgG1) in patients with Graves' hyperthyroidism receiving 1000 mg SC weekly, with mean reductions in TSHR-IgG1exceeding >80% over the 12-week study. Participants with Graves' overt hyperthyroidism, confirmed by elevated baseline thyroid tests despite being treated with anti-thyroid drug therapy (ATD), experienced normalization of thyroid hormones within weeks; T4 normalization occurring at a median of 3 weeks and T3 at a median of 5 weeks after the first administration of BHV-1300.
In a randomized, placebo-controlled, time-to-event trial in idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE), the median time to the second day with a generalized tonic-clonic seizure was 141 days in the opakalim 75 mg once-daily treatment group vs. 47 days in the placebo group, representing a 3-fold prolongation.
Biohaven Ltd. (BHVN) has been upgraded to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), reflecting growing optimism about the company's earnings prospects.
Biohaven to update clinical, regulatory, and operational progress at annual R&D Day at the upcoming Yale Innovation Summit on May 27, 2026. Advancement of high-value, late-stage priority programs: Pivotal epilepsy program with selective Kv7 ion channel activator, opakalim, with expected topline results in 2H 2026.
Biohaven Ltd. is downgraded from Strong Buy to Hold following the FDA's Complete Response Letter for troriluzole in Spinocerebellar Ataxia. BHVN pivots focus to three late-stage programs: MODE/TRAP degraders [BHV-1400, BHV-1300], Kv7 activator Opakalim, and myostatin-activin inhibitor taldefgrobep alfa for obesity. Taldefgrobep alfa targets obesity with a novel MOA aiming for fat loss, muscle gain, and improved safety versus GLP-1s; phase 2 POC data is expected in 2H 2026.
