The FDA has granted fast-track status to Armata’s intravenous multi-phage candidate AP-SA02 for the treatment of complicated S. aureus bacteremias, enabling more frequent interaction with the agency, rolling review of approval, and potentially accelerated approval. AP-SA02 showed positive Phase 1b/2a results, and Armata plans a Phase 3 superiority study in the second half of 2026. Analysts mostly rate the stock a buy with price targets of $15 to $20, although the company was recently unprofitable and reported a loss per share of $4.80. » More on de.investing.com
