PRVB - Why Provention Bio Stock Is Soaring Today
Shares of Provention Bio (NASDAQ: PRVB) were soaring 21.6% as of 10:56 a.m. EDT on Tuesday. The big jump came after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released briefing documents in advance of an advisory committee meeting scheduled for May 27. This advisory committee will review Provention's Biologics License Application (BLA) for teplizumab for the delay of clinical type 1 diabetes (T1D) in at-risk individuals.
Provention couldn't have asked for better news in the FDA's briefing documents. The agency stated that the company's TN-10 pivotal study "successfully demonstrated the treatment effect of teplizumab in delaying T1D diagnosis in at-risk relatives of T1D patients for a median time of approximately 2 years."
