On this week’s episode, Graig Suvannavejh, Paul Matteis, Brian Skorney, Yaron Werber, and Jake Becraft opened with a look at the biotech market, with the XBI down roughly 700 basis points in two weeks but still up about 20% year to date. The IPO window remains open, though M&A has quieted. The co-hosts then discussed degrossing, overviewing a Goldman Sachs report that showed degrossing at the largest in over five years. The group also covered valuations, rate and midterm uncertainty, and M&A as a potential catalyst. In data news, the group discussed BMS’ admilparant in IPF, where only the low dose reached significance, and the read-through to Contineum. Next, they discussed Mirum’s Livmarli success in cholestatic pruritus, and celiac programs from Teva, argenx, and First Tracks, which all showed encouraging early data,ahead of November’s celiac meeting. The group also covered argenx’s Sjögren’s futility termination, Arrowhead’s first clinical data for a TfR-delivered tau siRNA, Alector’s brain shuttle update and $75 million raise, and Verastem’s KRAS G12D inhibitor data in pancreatic cancer. The episode closed with a preview of Moderna and Merck’s cancer vaccine data at ESMO 2026 and the open question of its placebo control. *This episode aired on October 16, 2026.
