Shares in Swiss pharma major Novartis AG gained in early trading on Monday after the company reported positive trial data for its breast-cancer treatment Kisqali, which analysts said were eagerly awaited.
At 0718 GMT, shares traded 5.6% higher at CHF80.67.
Novartis said that its drug Kisqali has met the trial's primary endpoint during an interim analysis, showing a clinically meaningful benefit in a population of patients with early breast cancer. The data readout had been "eagerly awaited," analysts at Jefferies said in a note.
The analysts said that this could represent a $6 billion opportunity as it implies upside on earnings per share of at least 2% to 4%, and of 2% to 3% on net present value. Consensus on earnings per share is expected to be lifted by 3% to 6%, according to Jefferies.
