Achieve Life Sciences: Despite CRL, A Success Is Achieve-Able
The last months were eventful for Achieve Life Sciences, sending the stock strongly down, but later to a new high for the year, implying optimism about the future path. Achieve is, in my view, a more derisked case now, thanks to successful financing, progress on shifting its supply chain, and new leadership. Despite the CRL, ACHV continues to advance. The denial was not drug-related, pointing towards a possible successful outcome in this story.

Achieve Life Sciences: CRL Is Fixable, So I Remain Bullish
Achieve Life Sciences remains a cytisinicline story, with very positive smoking-cessation data. This also gives cytisinicline some added optionality for vaping. The FDA's CRL appears to be mostly about manufacturing and labeling issues. However, it's not about a particular cytisinicline efficacy or safety problem. ACHV is currently targeting Q4 2026 resubmission and, assuming everything goes according to plan, it could receive approval by 1H2027.
