Does New Dravet Data for Zorevunersen Strengthen the Bull Case for Stoke Therapeutics (STOK)?

Simply Wall St · 1d ago
  • Stoke Therapeutics and Biogen recently reported long-term Phase 1/2a and open-label extension data at the 2025 American Epilepsy Society meeting, showing durable seizure reductions and better cognition, behavior, and quality of life in Dravet syndrome patients treated with investigational antisense oligonucleotide zorevunersen alongside standard anti-seizure medicines.
  • A propensity score weighted comparison with the ONTERFLY natural history cohort, along with EEG evidence of dose-dependent reductions in abnormal brain activity, strengthens the case that zorevunersen may act as a disease-modifying therapy targeting NaV1.1 protein production via the SCN1A gene.
  • Next, we’ll examine how this emerging disease-modifying profile for zorevunersen shapes Stoke Therapeutics’ investment narrative and long-term opportunity set.

What Is Stoke Therapeutics' Investment Narrative?

To own Stoke Therapeutics, you need to believe that zorevunersen can mature from promising data into a first-in-class, disease-modifying treatment for Dravet syndrome, and that this franchise can support a premium valuation despite forecasts for declining revenue and earnings. The AES data meaningfully reinforce the near term catalyst path by tightening the link between early-stage results and the ongoing Phase 3 EMPEROR design, which could help justify Stoke’s high multiple and recent very large share price run if later data align. At the same time, the stock already trades above some fair value estimates, with profitability still fragile, a relatively new management team, and a business that could look stretched if the EMPEROR readout, safety profile, or Biogen collaboration do not evolve as hoped.

However, investors should pay close attention to how much optimism is already priced in. Stoke Therapeutics' share price has been on the slide but might be dropping deeper into value territory. Find out whether it's a bargain at this price.
