Read MoreHide Full Article

ImmunoGen, Inc. was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise more than 7% on the day. The move came on solid volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This continues the recent uptrend for the company—as the stock is now up 18.6% in the past one-month time frame.

The stock gained after the company reported encouraging data from the Phase 1b/2 FORWARD II study assessing mirvetuximab soravtansine along with Merck’s anti-PD-1 therapy pembrolizumab in patients with platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian cancer.

The company has seen one negative estimate revision in the past few months, while its Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current quarter has also moved lower over the past few months, suggesting there may be trouble down the road. So make sure to keep an eye on this stock going forward, to see if this recent move higher can last.
