There’s a company making notable progress in the ever-changing world of neuroscience and specialty pharmaceuticals.
Recently, they’ve achieved a series of significant clinical milestones, including the development of a novel oral therapy for multiple sclerosis that’s generating quite a bit of buzz in the medical community.
What makes this organization stand out is their blend of scientific innovation and strategic execution; their approach doesn’t just advance treatment, it also reflects a keen understanding of where the sector is headed.
Such qualities are drawing attention from experts and decision-makers throughout heal-thcare, as the company continues to influence shifting trends in patient care and drug development.
For anyone closely following the evolving landscape of specialty pharmaceuticals, this is a company whose progress could certainly be worth exploring in greater detail.
And with a low float of fewer than 3Mn shares, a strong analyst target, multiple bullish technicals, and game-changing news in the recent term, this Nasdaq biopharma profile has taken over my watchlist:
*Quantum BioPharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: QNTM)*
Quantum BioPharma is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to building a portfolio of innovative assets and biotech solutions for the treatment of challenging neurodegenerative and metabolic disorders and alcohol misuse disorders with drug candidates in different stages of development.

No. 1 – Volatility Potential Could Be Heightened Based On QNTM’s Low Float Structure.
No. 2 – A Multitude Of Bullish Technical Indicators May Help Analyze Market Trends.

LUCID-MS: Patented new chemical entity (NCE)
Lucid-MS is a patented neuroprotective compound that has demonstrated in preclinical models to prevent and reverse myelin degradation, a cause for Multiple Sclerosis, as well as other neurodegenerative diseases and conditions.
Lucid-MS has shown excellent results in several animal models.
We adjust our target price to $35.50 per share (earlier $12.90). Our new target price factors in contribution from FSD202 given that it is expected to start its Phase 2 trials soon. This is the main reason for the increase in our price target. We reiterate our BuyVenture rating with a capital price appreciation potential of 38%.
