Barclays Maintains Overweight on Boston Scientific, Raises Price Target to $125

Trial achieves positive results in the treatment of persistent atrial fibrillation
MARLBOROUGH, Mass. and SAN DIEGO, April 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --&nbsp;Boston Scientific Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BSX#NYSE">BSX</a>) today announced positive 12-month primary endpoint results from the second phase of the ADVANTAGE AF clinical trial evaluating the use of the FARAPULSE&#x2122; Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System&#x2A; and adjunctive use of the FARAPOINT&#x2122; PFA Catheter in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). &nbsp;Key findings from the study were presented at the second annual PFA Live Case Summit in San Diego and simultaneously published in <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4411722-1&amp;h=2061933693&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ahajournals.org%2Fdoi%2F10.1161%2FCIRCULATIONAHA.125.074485&amp;a=Circulation">Circulation</a>.
Persistent AF, which accounts for approximately 25%1 of all AF cases, is an abnormal, rapid heartbeat that lasts for at least seven days in a row and can lead to complications such as blood clots, stroke and heart failure. The second phase of the ADVANTAGE AF trial studied the FARAWAVE&#x2122; PFA Catheter for both pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and posterior wall ablation (PWA) and the FARAPOINT PFA Catheter for cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) ablation to treat typical atrial flutter (AFL), a type of heart rhythm disorder. All patients in the trial were continuously monitored after their procedure with the LUX-Dx&#x2122; Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) System, which is designed to detect recurrence of cardiac arrhythmias and assess AF burden. Findings from the trial met all pre-specified safety and effectiveness endpoints and demonstrated:
<ul>
<li>73.4% freedom from AF, AFL and atrial tachycardia (AT), which exceeded the performance goal of 40% or higher.</li>
<li>A safety event rate of 2.4% and no reports of pulmonary vein stenosis, atrio-esophageal fistula or phrenic nerve palsy which met the performance goal of 12% or lower.</li>
<li>81.0% freedom from symptomatic documented AF recurrence, which is defined as arrhythmia, clinical intervention or use of escalated or new Class I/III anti-arrhythmic drugs.</li>
<li>71.6% of patients had virtually no atrial arrhythmia (AA) burden, in which data shows lower AA burden can be associated with fewer clinical interventions and improvements in quality of life and 52% of patients had no residual AA events after the blanking period.</li>
<li>96.4% of patients treated with the FARAPOINT PFA Catheter had no recurrence of AFL.</li>
</ul>
Boston Scientific anticipates U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval to expand the instructions for use labeling for the FARAPULSE PFA System to include persistent AF as well as European and U.S. regulatory approvals for the FARAPOINT PFA Catheter in the second half of 2025.

Risk-on sentiment dominated Wall Street on Wednesday, as upbeat earnings reports and conciliatory messages from the Trump administration h<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">elped lift investor confidence.</a>
The administration eased market fears on two major fronts that have recently weighed heavily on sentiment. On the trade front, tensions with China appeared to thaw, with reports suggesting the White House is considering reducing tariffs on certain categories of goods.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent added fuel to the rally, stating U.S.-China tariffs are unsustainable and will likely need to be lowered to facilitate meaningful negotiations.
Meanwhile, President Donald Trump offered an abrupt shift in tone toward Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, saying he has no intention to fire him, a remark that helped calm concerns over political interference in monetary policy.
By midday in New York, the S&amp;P 500 was up by nearly 2%, though it had earlier climbed even higher. The Nasdaq 100 outperformed with a 2.5% gain, driven by strength in Magnificent Seven stocks.
Trump's pivot on Powell pushed Treasury yields lower across the curve, with the 30-year yield falling five basis points to 4.83%, after briefly topping 4.90% the previous day.
On the macro front, flash Purchasing Managers&#8217; Index surveys revealed slowing growth momentum in the U.S. economy, as the services sector decelerated sharply following the impact <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44952395/us-business-activity-growth-slows-in-april-as-services-suffer-tariff-shock-markets-rally-as-trade-war-cools">of recent tariff shocks.</a>
The U.S. dollar strengthened, while gold plunged 2.6%, heading for its worst session since November.
Oil prices dropped more than 2% following speculation that OPEC+ may announce a new output hike as early as next month.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) held steady around $93,000.
