RunUp Biotech 2026

RunUp26

This guide is the core pillar of the Run-Up Biotech 2026 framework. It is designed as a reference map for event-driven traders who want to follow biotech catalysts in a more structured way: from calendar building and candidate selection to timing, risk management and post-event review.

NRXP NRX Pharmaceuticals Inc

NRXP

NRx has announced the conversion of the remaining 5.4M USD owed to Anson Funds into common equity, with no additional warrants or repricing features disclosed. Management states that, following this transaction, the year-end 2025 balance sheet is expected to show no remaining convertible debt and a “debt-free” capital structure.

OMER Omeros Corp Yartemlya (narsoplimab)

Whatif

This article is built around one simple idea: before the label is public, you can only discuss “expectations” seriously if you anchor them to official sources, peer-reviewed evidence, and observable regulatory patterns. This is not a “tip.” It is a disciplined reading exercise.

OMER Omeros: The Finish Line Approaches

OMER

Omeros Corporation is approaching a binary regulatory event: the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is scheduled to decide on the Biologics License Application (BLA) for narsoplimab (to be marketed as Yartemlya) in hematopoietic stem cell transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA) on December 26, 2025. This is the company’s most important near-term catalyst and one of the most closely watched PDUFAs into year-end.

RXRX Recursion Pharmaceuticals Inc

rxrx

J.P. Morgan upgraded Recursion Pharmaceuticals (RXRX) from Neutral to Overweight and increased its price target from 10 to 11 USD after reviewing new Phase 1b/2 data for REC-4881 in familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). At a spot price around 4.20 USD, the new target implies more than 160 percent upside versus the current quote

PMGC’s  subsidiary NorthStrive Biosciences

ELAB

On December 17, 2025, PMGC’s subsidiary NorthStrive Biosciences announced the initiation of Phase III of its AI-driven drug discovery program in partnership with Yuva Biosciences:contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}. This stage is intended to experimentally validate multiple candidate compounds prioritized by YuvaBio’s MitoNova™ AI platform during Phase II, focusing on enhancing mitochondrial function and preserving muscle mass in obese patients

ADTX Sparked Aditxt 

ADTX

Deep dive on Aditxt Inc. (ADTX), a highly distressed micro-cap trying to build an ecosystem around immune tolerance, precision diagnostics and women’s health, while struggling with going concern warnings, heavy dilution and a very fragile balance sheet.

ALDX Aldeyra Therapeutics Inc Update dec 16

ALDX4

On December 16, 2025, the FDA formally extended the PDUFA target action date for reproxalap in dry eye disease from December 16, 2025 to March 16, 2026, after Aldeyra submitted the Clinical Study Report (CSR) for its dry-eye field trial to the NDA at the FDA’s request.

CUE Emergency Deep Dive

cue

Cue Biopharma is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a novel class of injectable biologics designed to selectively engage and modulate disease-specific T cells using its Immuno-STAT platform, targeting both autoimmune disease and cancer.

FBIO Fortress Biotech

fbio

Fortress Biotech has evolved into a hybrid model: part commercial dermatology company (via Journey Medical), part royalty/affiliate platform with exposure to multiple late-stage assets developed by partners and subsidiaries.

Biotech Weekly Recap

weekly

This week delivered a clear “biotech reality check” mix: multiple FDA decisions (including a first-in-class gene therapy), two new oral options for gonorrhea, and several high-visibility clinical readouts across obesity/metabolic and rare disease. The flow of headlines was “event-driven”, with market attention concentrating on hard endpoints, safety/tolerability, and execution quality.

MARKET REPORT – WEEK 15–19 DECEMBER 2025

WEEK

The coming week looks like a genuine pivot week for global markets, with three macro catalysts in sequence that will reshape expectations on rates, growth and inflation. The backdrop is a rotation into small caps and cyclicals, supported by a Fed that has shifted into a less aggressive “pause” mode and by a potential divergence between central banks: the BoE is expected to cut (18 Dec), the ECB is likely to stay on hold, and US CPI (18 Dec) together with labour data will refine the timing of 2026 rate cuts.

TENX Tenax Therapeutics

TENX

Tenax Therapeutics is advancing oral levosimendan for pulmonary hypertension associated with HFpEF (PH-HFpEF), with a registrational path built around the LEVEL Phase 3 program and a planned second global Phase 3 study (LEVEL-2) accepted by FDA in 2025.

SANA Biotechnology

sana

SANA Biotechnology is often framed as a high-risk / high-reward cellular engineering story. The core thesis revolves around its proprietary hypoimmune (HIP) platform: engineered cells designed to evade immune rejection, with the long-term goal of enabling allogeneic cell therapies without chronic immunosuppression.

VKTX Viking Therapeutics Inc

VKTX

Viking Therapeutics is one of the most watched “metabolic” biotechs because it is trying to build a two-lane story: (1) obesity with VK2735 (the same molecule in injectable and oral tablet forms), and (2) MASH/NASH with VK2809 (thyroid receptor beta agonist with histology data).

CYTK Cytokinetics

CYTK

Cytokinetics is a late-stage cardiovascular biotech whose investment case now turns almost entirely around aficamten, a next-generation cardiac myosin inhibitor for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM). The clinical package in oHCM is strong: the pivotal SEQUOIA-HCM trial versus placebo and the active-control MAPLE-HCM trial versus metoprolol both met their primary endpoints with clinically meaningful gains in peak oxygen uptake (pVO₂), improved symptoms and a safety profile that appears manageable so far.
