Protara Therapeutics: Speculative Buy On Promising TARA-002 Trial Results
TARA's leading candidate is TARA-002, which so far looks like a promising immune-stimulating therapy derived from OK-432 (Picibanil). Their recent Phase 2 ADVANCED-2 trial also showed favorable results in NMIBC, with a notable 72% complete response rate at six months. TARA's pipeline also has IV Choline, which could target unmet needs in patients requiring parenteral nutrition, and it has no other FDA-approved alternatives.
