Galmed Unveils Pharmacodynamic Blood Markers For Aramchol

– AM-001 Study represents a pivotal milestone in Galmed's transition to Aramchol Meglumine, an improved formulation of its lead compound in advanced clinical development &nbsp;– Aramchol Meglumine, a New Chemical Entity (NCE) protected by patents until 2035, is being developed both as a standalone agent and in novel drug combinations for multiple indications influenced by fatty acid metabolism &nbsp;– Initial findings suggest that the new Aramchol Meglumine formulation offers higher bioavailability than Aramchol free acid and that a once-daily, oral 200 mg dose is likely to be optimal for future trials, supporting improved patient compliance and potentially lowering manufacturing costs
TEL AVIV, Israel, April 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --&nbsp;Galmed Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLMD#NASDAQ">GLMD</a>) ("Galmed" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on liver, cardiometabolic, and gastrointestinal oncology indications, today announced positive preliminary results from Part 1 of the Ph1 Bioavailability AM-001 Study of Aramchol Meglumine.
Galmed has successfully advanced Aramchol acid through six clinical trials (up to Ph3) enrolling 661 subjects, establishing both its overall safety and its efficacy in treating NASH (MASH). The N-methylglucamine (meglumine) salt of Aramchol exhibits notable advantages over Aramchol acid, including enhanced solubility, absorption, and systemic exposure, translating to higher bioavailability. In recognition of these benefits, Aramchol Meglumine received NCE patent protection extending until 2035.
Previously, the FDA approved the transition from Aramchol acid to Aramchol Meglumine under a new IND, leveraging cross-reference to the substantial preclinical and clinical data amassed in recent years for Aramchol. The only requirement for this transition was a bioavailability study to compare the two formulations.
The AM-001 study was conducted in response to that FDA request and is also designed to help identify the doses best suited for advancing Aramchol Meglumine into Phase 2 studies. It consists of two parts, comparing single doses of Aramchol acid and Aramchol Meglumine in healthy volunteers. Part 2 of the study is anticipated to conclude in the second half of 2025.
In Part 1 of AM-001, preliminary results demonstrate that a 400 mg dose of Aramchol Meglumine suspension achieved an area under the curve (AUC) nearly double that of Aramchol acid tablets. Based on these outcomes, 200 mg once daily appears to be the optimal dose for subsequent clinical trials. This once-daily regimen not only simplifies patient adherence (moving from twice-daily to once-daily) but is also expected to reduce the overall cost of goods.
"Aramchol is the most advanced down regulator of SCD-1 (Stearoyl – CoA desaturase) in clinical development. Inhibition of SCD-1 has been recently investigated in multiple indications, re-emphasizing its metabolic master switch potential and importance in multiple organs and functions. We expect that the long patent runway of Aramchol Meglumine will allow us to develop the full therapeutical potential of the drug in the planned expansion in cardiometabolic diseases and gastrointestinal cancers we recently announced," said Allen Baharaff, President and CEO of Galmed Pharmaceuticals.

Why It's Important: Tesla, regularly among the most searched tickers on the site, climbed the leaderboard to be the most-searched ticker on Benzinga Pro in October. The stock was third in the past two months, but ranked first in July. 
Nvidia ranked second in October, dropping from first place over the last two months. The technology giant briefly passed Apple and Microsoft to be the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41551461/nvidia-overtakes-apple-as-worlds-most-valuable-company-again"> most valuable company in the world.</a>
One of the biggest movers in October was Trump Media &amp; Technology Group, a media company co-founded by former President Donald Trump. The stock has surged in recent weeks ahead of Election Day. Trump's odds of winning the 2024 presidential election have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41635149/2024-election-odds-on-polymarket-kalshi-show-trump-will-win-why-they-might-be-wrong">increased across prediction markets</a> and sports betting apps.
The stock has also been highlighted as a potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/10/41630878/djt-short-squeeze-could-push-stock-to-60-if-trump-wins-but-analysis-says-loss-could-make-shares-">short-squeeze stock </a>with high short interest. A 2024 election win by Trump could see the stock shoot higher. Likewise, the stock could fall significantly if Trump loses the election.
Trump Media &amp; Technology Group will likely be among the most searched tickers on Benzinga Pro in November with Election Day happening on Nov. 5. The stock was the 20th most searched ticker in September and wasn't in the top 20 in August or July, ranking just outside the top 20.
The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust falls to fourth place from second in the past two months, likely due more to the surge in interest in the stocks mentioned above and not less interest in the S&amp;P 500 market index. Although it should be noted that the Invesco QQQ Trust ETF, which tracks the Nasdaq 100 Index, fell from sixth place to 15th in October, potentially signaling less interest in ETFs and market indexes.
Other newcomers to the top 10 were Bright Minds Biosciences, Tevogen Bio and Oklo, who have each not previously been among the top 20 most-searched tickers in any given month. Tevogen shares have fallen significantly in 2024, while Bight Minds Sciences and Oklo are each up over 100% in 2024.
Advanced Micro Devices also returned to the top 10, ranking seventh, which comes after falling out of the top 20 in September. The stock has regularly gone back and forth between the top 10 and top 20 each month in 2024.
Dropping out of the top 10 along with Invesco QQQ were Wheeler Real Estate Investment Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHLR#NASDAQ">WHLR</a>), Galmed Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLMD#NASDAQ">GLMD</a>), Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) and Intuitive Machines (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUNR#NASDAQ">LUNR</a>). &nbsp;
Overall the month of October saw five of the same top 10 tickers from September and eight of the top 20 tickers from September.

Why It&#8217;s Important:&nbsp;Nvidia was the top searched stock on Benzinga Pro for the month of September once again. The stock has ranked first or second for every month tracked since February, sometimes alternating with SPY or Tesla.
The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust ranked second for a second straight month, which comes as the S&amp;P 500 tracking index hit new all-time highs in the month of September.
Tesla, which topped the month of July, has ranked third for two straight weeks. The stock has ranked among the top four stocks searched in each month tracked in 2024.
The bigger story in September were the newcomers and the stocks that dropped off.
Newcomers to the top 10 included Wheeler Real Estate, Galmed, Intel and Intuitive. Of the four stocks, only Intuitive had ranked in the top 20 over the last three months. The newcomers all had catalysts in the last month that made their stocks highly volatile.
On the 11th through 20th portion of the list, the stocks were all different from the previous month with Intuitive moving to the top 10 and Palantir going from 7th to 12th and the other stocks all new to the top 20.
Several of the companies ranked in the bottom part of the top 20 are penny stocks trading at less than $5 per share that saw wide moves that saw increased interest from Benzinga traders.
One of the bigger names to make the top 20, by name recognition, is Trump Media &amp; Technology Group, the company that counts former President Donald Trump as a co-founder. The stock has been highly volatile during the 2024 election cycle.
Dropping out of the top 10 were Lumen Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUMN#NYSE">LUMN</a>), Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), Geovax Labs (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOVX#NASDAQ">GOVX</a>) and the aforementioned Palantir.
Other big names that exited the top 20 include Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) that was 13th in August and fell to 24th to narrowly miss the list.
Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), which has frequently appeared in the top 20 and was ranked 15th in August dropped out of the top 20.
Overall the month of September saw six of the same top 10 tickers from August and eight of the top 20 tickers from August.

Each week,&nbsp;Benzinga's Stock Whisper Index&nbsp;uses a combination of proprietary data and pattern recognition to showcase five stocks that are just under the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/stock-whisper-index" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">surface and deserve attention</a>.
Investors are constantly on the hunt for undervalued, under-followed and emerging stocks. With countless methods available to retail traders, the challenge often lies in sifting through the abundance of information to uncover new opportunities and understand why certain stocks should be of interest.
Here&#8217;s a look at the Benzinga Stock Whisper Index for the week of Sept. 20:
Barrick Gold (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>): The gold-mining company saw increased interest from readers this week on the heels of a 50 basis point cut to interest rates by the Federal Reserve, which saw gold prices rise. The interest also comes after Barrick Gold CEO Mark Bristow spoke at the Gold Forum Americas earlier this week and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40915786/barrick-forecasts-strong-organic-growth-by-2030-ceo-bristow-touts-undervaluation"> said the company expects </a>30% growth in gold-equivalent ounces by the end of the decade from its existing assets. 
Bristow's comments emphasized the company's current mines and those in development, as the industry experiences a surge in merger and acquisition activity. The CEO also highlighted how the company is expanding its copper portfolio, which could be something exciting to watch for investors.
Barrick shares were down 2% over the last five trading days, as seen on the <a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent092024&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Benzinga Pro chart</a> below. The stock is up 14% year-to-date in 2024.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent092024&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="999" height="483" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20121633/Screenshot-183.png" alt="" class="wp-image-558808" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20121633/Screenshot-183.png 999w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20121633/Screenshot-183-300x145.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20121633/Screenshot-183-768x371.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 999px) 100vw, 999px" /></a></figure>
Galmed Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLMD#NASDAQ">GLMD</a>): The biopharmaceutical company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40941193/galmed-pharmaceuticals-stock-is-soaring-thursday-heres-why">saw shares soar </a>during the week after an announcement on drug development activities. Galmed plans to add drug developments that target cardiac fibrosis and colorectal and hepatic cancers. The company will release data from the studies during the fourth quarter.
"The conditions Galmed plans to focus upon in the coming years are major public health problems impacting millions of people worldwide and posing huge financial burden on health providers," Galmed CEO Allen Baharaff said.
Large interest in Galmed saw shares halted several times during the trading week. Helping with volatility in the biopharmaceutical company is the low-float of the stock with around 625,000 shares available according to Benzinga Pro. Low-float stocks can often see high volatility on company announcements.
The stock was up 160% over the last five days and up nearly 100% year-to-date in 2024.

ServiceNow Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOW#NYSE">NOW</a>): The software company is seeing a large increase in interest from readers ahead of its third-quarter financial results. Analysts expect the company to report revenue of $2.74 billion, up from $2.29 billion in last year's third quarter.
The company has beaten analyst revenue estimates in six straight quarters. Analysts expect the company to report earnings per share of $3.46, up from $2.92 in last year's third quarter. ServiceNow has beaten earnings estimates from analysts in more than 20 straight quarters.
The company's earnings report will show investors and analysts whether revenue growth and AI platform demand are continuing to strengthen. The company saw subscription revenue up 23% year-over-year in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/07/39944577/servicenow-q2-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-servicenow-intends-to-reinvent-every-workflow-in-every">the second quarter </a>and said it was helping meet demand from CEOs looking for new growth as ServiceNow reinvents "every workflow, in every company, in every industry with GenAI at the core."
ServiceNow shares are up 4% over the last five days and up 34% year-to-date.

Deutsche Bank (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DB#NYSE">DB</a>): It's not every week that a bank stock makes its way on the Stock Whisper Index, but here we are. Deutsche Bank saw strong interest from readers, which could be due to bank stocks getting a lift after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/24/09/40928301/interest-rates-in-free-fall-what-it-means-for-mortgages-credit-cards-and-your-wallet-a">interest rate cut was announced.</a> 
The move could see lenders have their balance sheets strengthened going forward and see increased demand for loan activity. Deutsche Bank reports third-quarter financial results in October and could comment on demand and what the future looks like for the company and the sector.
Shares were up 5% over the last five days and 24% year-to-date.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent092024&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="999" height="504" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20121726/Screenshot-186.png" alt="" class="wp-image-558812" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20121726/Screenshot-186.png 999w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20121726/Screenshot-186-300x151.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20121726/Screenshot-186-768x387.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 999px) 100vw, 999px" /></a></figure>
Stryker Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SYK#NYSE">SYK</a>): The medical equipment company saw strong interest from readers during the week, which comes on the heels of acquisition announcements, new products <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SYK/analyst-ratings">and analyst notes</a>. 
The company recently unveiled new foot and ankle solutions that can help restore limb length. Stryker closed its acquisition of privately held care.ai, a company helping with AI-assisted virtual care workflows and smart room technology. The company said the acquisition will help accelerate its digital vision and could expand its healthcare IT business. 
On Friday, Stryker closed its acquisition of NICO Corporation, a company with a surgery method for tumor and intracerebral hemorrhage procedures. Stryker also announced an acquisition of pain management company Vertos Medical in August. Together, the acquisitions and new products could have investors excited about the company's future and its potential diversification efforts.
Piper Sandler recently maintained an Overweight rating and a $380 price target on the stock. Wolfe Research initiated coverage with an Outperform rating and a $405 price target.

Benzinga's 'Stock Whisper' Index: 5 Stocks Investors Secretly Monitor But Don't Talk About Yet

Galmed Pharmaceuticals Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLMD#NASDAQ">GLMD</a>) shares are surging Thursday after the company&nbsp;announced plans to broaden its drug development activities <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/n40935244/galmed-announces-an-expansion-of-its-activities-to-cancer-and-major-cardiometabolic-diseases">over the next two years</a>.
What Happened: Galmed announced that it plans to expand its drug development activities by adding two additional programs.
One program aims to identify novel Aramchol-based drug combinations to overcome resistance to standard-of-care oncological treatments for patients with advanced colorectal and hepatic cancers. The other program is expected to help discover new methods to allow the development of a novel Aramchol-based drug combination targeting cardiac fibrosis.
The clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company said it&nbsp;plans to release new data from in-vitro and ex-vivo studies on the aforementioned programs during the&nbsp;fourth quarter.
&#8220;The conditions Galmed plans to focus upon in the coming years are major public health problems impacting millions of people worldwide and posing huge financial burden on health providers,&#8221; said Allen Baharaff, president and CEO of Galmed Pharmaceuticals.
&#8220;SCD1 is a key enzyme that critically regulates many physiological processes, thereby promoting the progression of cardiovascular, cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. We are leveraging on two decades of development of the most clinically advanced SCD1 inhibitor (Aramchol) to date as we broaden our drug development activities.&#8221;

Galmed Pharmaceuticals is a very low-float stock with approximately 625,000 shares available for public trading, per&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.&nbsp;The company also had a market cap of less than $4.5 million as of Wednesday's close.&nbsp;Low-float, micro-cap stocks can be extremely volatile, which may help explain some of Thursday's surge.
Galmed&#8217;s average session volume over a 100-day period is approximately 1.711 million. Thursday&#8217;s trading volume has already crossed 16 million at the time of writing, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
GLMD Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/glmd">Galmed shares</a> were up 53.6% at $10.60 at the time of publication, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
