Avalo Therapeutics: Speculative Buy Ahead Of AVTX-009's LOTUS Results — Neutral

AVTX   Seeking Alpha — August 18, 2025

This Phase 2 trial should give us topline results by mid-2026, which I consider its most significant near-term value driver at this point. AVTX-009 also seems to have higher affinity and half-life versus Lutikizumab, which could allow for fewer doses and stronger efficacy.
