The 30 Day ATM Straddle Premium is at 76.18%, having risen from 23.82%, with a growth of 52.36%. A key factor driving the IV growth is that the FDA is expected to announce a pending decision on 27th December, regarding a new drug lumateperone, Intra-Cellular’s leading candidate for treating Schizophrenia. Schizophrenia could be the first indication where an approval could be received for Lumateperone, with the company most likely submitting a new application to endorse its use on patients with bipolar disorder. Both these conditions are uncommon, which could lead to physicians leaning towards the drug for patients as a new treatment option. Analysts expect a peak value sales of $1BN for Lumateperone.
