Traws Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRAW#NASDAQ">TRAW</a>) shares are rocketing on Monday after the company disclosed advancements in the development of its one-dose investigational treatment <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/n42643864/traws-pharma-announces-progress-in-developing-tivoxavir-marboxil-for-h5n1-bird-flu" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">for H5N1 bird flu, tivoxavir marboxil</a>.
The Phase 1 trial was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single-dose tivoxavir marboxil in healthy, influenza-negative adults.
Topline data revealed that a single dose maintained plasma drug levels above the EC90 for over 23 days, with results from a higher dose still pending.
Preclinical studies demonstrated that tivoxavir marboxil effectively inhibited drug-resistant influenza and highly pathogenic bird flu viruses both in vitro and in vivo. The company didn&#8217;t report any treatment-related adverse events.
Notably, the Type A H5N1 virus, first detected in U.S. dairy cattle in March 2024, has since spread to at least 866 herds across 16 states.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 60 people in eight states have been infected, with the first severe U.S. case confirmed in December 2024.
C. David Pauza, PhD, Chief Science Officer said, &#8220;In laboratory testing, tivoxavir marboxil inhibited multiple isolates of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1. We evaluated the effects of drug treatment in mice exposed to human H5N1, where the virus was isolated from a dairy worker exposed to infected cattle,&#8221;
&#8220;Oral treatment with tivoxavir marboxil after the virus infection resulted in complete survival and lung virus levels below the limit of quantitation1. This result is highly encouraging for future clinical development of tivoxavir marboxil for treating human H5N1 influenza.&#8221;
Price Action: TRAW shares are up 147.5% at $12.41 at the last check Monday.

Traws Pharma Stock Rockets On Promising H5N1 Bird Flu Treatment Results

The federal government&#8217;s massive real estate footprint faces scrutiny as Tesla CEO Elon Musk and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy prepare to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/41927289/trump-appoints-elon-musk-and-vivek-ramaswamy-to-lead-doge-targeting-bureaucracy-and-65-trillion-federal-spending-we-will-not-go-gently">lead Donald Trump&#8217;s new Department of Government Efficiency, nicknamed DOGE</a>. Their mandate to slash federal bureaucracy could reshape office markets nationwide.
&#8220;The implications to the real estate industry in the U.S., now facing a pullback in federal demand, would be profound,&#8221; warned Brendan Wallace, CEO of Fifth Wall, in a CNBC interview last week. The federal government currently leases approximately 150 million square feet, costing $5 billion annually, with roughly half the leases cancelable within six months.

</ul>
While Washington D.C. would feel the heaviest impact from any federal space reduction, Wallace said the ripple effects would reach across the country. The timing proves particularly challenging for an office sector already grappling with existential questions about space demand.
However, some industry experts see potential opportunities amid the disruption. &#8220;Having someone come in from outside who can understand everything technology can do may be an opportunity to save money without threatening the current workforce,&#8221; suggests David Dworkin, president of the National Housing Conference, to Housing Wire.

The initiative&#8217;s strict return-to-office mandate could trigger workforce changes. Musk and Ramaswamy&#8217;s Wall Street Journal op-ed embraces potential &#8220;voluntary terminations,&#8221; while simultaneously exploring options to monetize federal real estate assets through vehicles like REITs.
Beyond office space, Wallace identifies AI&#8217;s emerging influence on real estate markets as another factor. &#8220;The real estate industry is just now grappling with some of these big questions not just about how AI is going to make our business more efficient, but how it&#8217;s going to fundamentally change the business of real estate itself,&#8221; he explains.
Pat Cave, senior vice president at Enterprise Community Partners, argues against assuming negative outcomes. &#8220;I think the assumption that Trump is bad for housing is false,&#8221; he told Housing Wire, citing increased housing investments during Trump&#8217;s first term.
Trending: During market downturns, investors are learning that unlike equities, these<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/connect-invest-real-estate-notes"> high-yield real estate notes that pay 7.5% &#8211; 9% are protected by resilient assets, buffering against losses.</a>
The initiative&#8217;s exact impact remains unclear, though housing agencies already face staffing challenges.

The potential privatization of government-sponsored enterprises adds another layer of uncertainty. &#8220;I mean, it wasn&#8217;t directly mentioned by Trump himself, but then [Mark] Calabria and other people did suggest that GSEs should be released from their conservatorship,&#8221; Choi said, pointing to possible shifts in housing finance policy under the new administration.
As DOGE takes shape, its influence could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42508653/bernie-sanders-supports-elon-musks-doge-stating-that-it-must-target-the-pentagons-886-billion-budget">extend beyond direct federal real estate holdings to shape broader market dynamics</a>, from office demand patterns to housing policy implementation.

Elon Musk's DOGE Era: How Real Estate Could Be Different Under Trump's New Administration

In the current session, the stock is trading at $599.01, after a 2.35% increase. Over the past month, Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) stock increased by 4.16%, and in the past year, by 68.37%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734975911_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Meta Platforms P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 51.3 in the Interactive Media &amp; Services industry, Meta Platforms Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 27.62. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734975911_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

A Look Into Meta Platforms Inc's Price Over Earnings

Deribit CEO Luuk Strijers has pointed to $84,000 as the &#8220;max pain&#8221; level for Bitcoin ahead of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/options">significant December options</a> expiry, suggesting the market could be pulled down to this level before finding new equilibrium.
Strijers&#8217; analysis highlights the unique dynamics of the upcoming quarterly expiry, which accounts for 44% of all outstanding Bitcoin options, making it the largest options expiry this year.
"The max pain level is $84,000, which is the typical indication of where to expect this expiry to end up in normal market circumstances," Strijers told Benzinga about the upcoming Dec. 27 expiry. 
He explained that max pain levels, derived from the strike price where most open interest resides, often act as a gravitational pull on the market during major expiries.
Bitcoin is currently trading at $93,100 levels, down 2.5% over the last 24 hours. Ether (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) is trading at $3,270, down 1% for the day.
Other major altcoins like Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>), Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) and Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) are trading down 0.2%, 0.5% and 1.5%, respectively, according to data from CoinGecko.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Magnetism And Expiry Dynamics</h3>
Strijers noted that the large expiry, with $14 billion of Bitcoin options set to expire, could act as a &#8220;magnet,&#8221; drawing Bitcoin prices closer to the $84,000 level. 
"This large expiry might pull the market down toward $84,000, and after Friday morning, we might see a release moment for the market to rebalance or refine its new destination," he said.
The unusual size of in-the-money options adds to the complexity. 
Strijers revealed that $4.3 billion worth of Bitcoin options—approximately 30% of the total—are currently in-the-money, a figure significantly higher than usual. 
In the context of options trading, an option is considered in-the-money (ITM) when it has intrinsic value. 
For call options, this means the current market price of the underlying asset (in this case, Bitcoin) is higher than the strike price of the option. 
Conversely, for put options, it means the market price is below the strike price.
This elevated level of in-the-money options necessitates delta hedging, which could contribute to increased volatility during and after the expiry.
Delta hedging is a strategy where traders adjust positions in the underlying asset to neutralize risk from price changes, often amplifying market volatility during major options expiries.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Bullish Long-Term Sentiment Despite Short-Term Pressure</h3>
While Strijers acknowledged the possibility of a temporary correction pulling Bitcoin prices lower, he emphasized the long-term bullish sentiment in the market. 
"Market circumstances are rather bullish, and upside potential remains high. The next major expiry in March sees strikes as high as $120,000 or even $150,000," he said, pointing to the significant open interest in higher strike calls.
Strijers also highlighted that the put-call ratio stands at 0.44, indicating a stronger preference for calls, which is generally a bullish indicator. 
A put-call ratio of 0.44 means that the volume of put options (bets on price decreases) is significantly lower than the volume of call options (bets on price increases). This indicates a bullish market sentiment, as more traders are speculating on Bitcoin's price rising rather than falling.
Despite the short-term pullback, Strijers said, "The market is not bearish at all. It's still positioned in a positive way."

Direct Digital Shares Resume Trade Then Again Halted On Circuit Breaker To The Upside, Stock Now Up 514.5%

Arm Holdings Plc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARM#NASDAQ">ARM</a>) shares are moving lower on Monday after a U.S. federal court reportedly found that QAULCOMM Incorporated (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) did not breach Nuvia&#8216;s license agreement with the company, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-20/qualcomm-wins-licensing-fight-with-arm-over-chip-designs">Bloomberg</a> reported on Friday.
The Details: The jury determined that Qualcomm&#8217;s chips are properly licensed under its agreement with Arm and concluded that Qualcomm did not violate the terms of its agreement by incorporating technology into its chips without paying a higher licensing rate. However, the jury could not unanimously determine if Nuvia breached its license agreement.
This verdict follows a legal battle in which Arm argued that Qualcomm and its subsidiary, Nuvia, required new agreements to continue using the company&#8217;s technology. Qualcomm, on the other hand, maintained that it held a broad, separate license for Arm's innovations that covered its operations.
Qualcomm relies on its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41495038/whats-going-on-with-arm-holdings-shares-wednesday">licensing agreement</a> with Arm to integrate the company's technology into its chips. For instance, its partnership with major companies like Samsung relies on this technology to power their devices.
Since the jury could not reach a unanimous verdict on whether Nuvia breached its license agreement, Arm expressed its interest in filing for a retrial and stated that it was disappointed that the jury did not reach a consensus on the claims.
Qualcomm said, "The jury has vindicated Qualcomm's right to innovate and affirmed that all the Qualcomm products at issue in the case are protected by Qualcomm's contract with Arm."

The system introduces a redesigned hardware architecture that delivers improved performance, achieving significant milestones in two-qubit gate fidelity &#8211; 99.0% median fidelity for iSWAP gates and 99.5% for fSim gates, with error rates halved in 2024.
Ankaa-3 is accessible through Rigetti Quantum Cloud Services (QCS&#xAE;) and will be available on Amazon Braket and Microsoft Azure in the first quarter of 2025.
The company supports a wide range of algorithmic research with iSWAP gates operating at 72-nanosecond median times and faster fSim gates at 56 nanoseconds, ideal for applications like random circuit sampling.
Rigetti Computing plans to advance its modular system architecture in 2025, focusing on increasing fidelities and reducing error rates.
By mid-2025, the company aims to launch a 36-qubit system composed of four interconnected 9-qubit chips, targeting a twofold reduction in error rates.
By year-end, Rigetti expects to unveil a system exceeding 100 qubits, with the same targeted error rate improvement.
Dr. Subodh Kulkarni, Rigetti CEO said, &#8220;With approximately $225 million of cash, cash equivalents and available for sale investments and no debt, we are extremely confident in our ability to deliver on our roadmap and performance goals.&#8221;
&#8221;The remarkable performance of Ankaa-3 reinforces our leadership in the superconducting quantum computing field &#8212; which we believe is the winning modality for high-performance quantum computers due to their many advantages, including fast gate speeds and well-established manufacturing processes,&#8221;
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;Defiance Quantum ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QTUM#NASDAQ">QTUM</a>) and Spear Alpha ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPRX#NASDAQ">SPRX</a>).

Spotlight on United Airlines Holdings: Analyzing the Surge in Options Activity

In 2015, Australian prospector David Hole searched for gold in Maryborough Regional Park, near Melbourne, with his metal detector. While this wasn't an unusual outing for the prospector, what he discovered was. He unearthed an unusually heavy reddish rock, which he suspected was a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40457722/gold-is-getting-its-moment-in-the-sun-and-experts-say-the-record-high-prices-could-">gold nugget</a> at the time.&nbsp;
He took the rock home and tried everything to crack it open – saws, hammers, even acid—but nothing worked. Years later, he took the rock to the Melbourne Museum to have them identify it. To his astonishment, geologists revealed that this "rock" was no rock at all but a rare 4.6 billion-year-old meteorite.&nbsp;

</ul>
Named after the park where it was found, the Maryborough meteorite weighs 17 kilograms (about 37.5 pounds) and has been identified as an H5 ordinary chondrite. According to Museums Victoria, this means that it contains chondrules, which are tiny crystallized droplets of metallic minerals that formed during the early stages of the solar system.&nbsp;
Museums Victoria geologist Dermot Henry told The Sydney Morning Herald that the meteorite's sculpted, dimpled surface was formed as it burned through the Earth's atmosphere. Henry, who has examined thousands of suspected meteorites throughout his decades-long career, commented that only two of the rocks he's examined turned out to be real meteorites and this was one of them.&nbsp;

According to Museums Victoria, the meteorite likely originated in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.&nbsp;
Carbon dating suggests that the Maryborough meteorite landed on Earth between 100 and 1,000 years ago. Historical records of meteor sightings near Maryborough, dating back to 1889, may provide clues about its arrival.&nbsp;

"They transport us back in time, providing clues to the age, formation and chemistry of our solar system (including Earth)," Henry said in a media release from Museums Victoria.&nbsp;
According to Science Alert, the Maryborough meteorite is one of only 17 recorded in Victoria, making it far rarer than gold. It is also the second largest meteorite discovered in the area, second only to a 55-kilogram specimen identified in 2003.&nbsp;

While experts haven't assigned a precise monetary value to the meteorite, they state that its rarity and scientific significance make it far more valuable than gold—it's priceless.&nbsp;
What began as a quest for gold ended with identifying a cosmic artifact that has survived billions of years and countless celestial events.
The Maryborough meteorite is now part of Museums Victoria's collection, which continues to captivate visitors and researchers alike. It was displayed at the Melbourne Museum during National Science Week, offering the public a chance to marvel at a tangible piece of the cosmos.
For those with a keen eye for unusual finds, this story serves as a reminder: the next time you encounter an unusually heavy, hard-to-break rock, it might just be a fragment of space waiting to share its story.

Man Keeps 17-Kilogram Rock For Years, Thinking It's Gold – Turns Out It's A 4.6 Billion-Year-Old Meteorite Worth Much More

President-elect Donald Trump tried to ban TikTok during his first presidential term but is now open to keeping the social media app around ahead of a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42495579/lawmakers-demand-apple-and-google-remove-tiktok-by-jan-19-what-you-need-to-know"> pending January ban.</a>
What Happened: Similar to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/41096120/if-you-invested-1-000-in-bitcoin-when-donald-trump-said-he-wasnt-a-fan-heres-how-much-youd">reversal of opinion on cryptocurrency,</a> Trump has had a change of heart about banning TikTok from the United States.
On Sunday, Trump shared that he supports TikTok remaining operational in the United States despite a pending ban that could take place in the U.S. on Jan 19, the day before he is inaugurated as president once again.
"I think we're going to have to start thinking because, you know, we did go on TikTok, and we had a great response with billions of views, billions and billions of views," Trump said at AmericaFest over the weekend, as reported by Reuters.
Trump said his team showed him a chart of his TikTok engagement and it was a record.
"I said, ‘Maybe we gotta keep this sucker around for a little while.'"
The comments from Trump come after he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42522134/trump-meets-tiktok-ceo-shou-zi-chew-at-mar-a-lago-as-platform-urges-supreme-court-to-block-looming-ban" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recently met with</a> TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew at Mar-A-Lago and, on the same day, said he had a "warm spot" for the social media app.
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments on Jan. 10 about the TikTok ban and whether to put the ban on hold.
The Justice Department has argued that TikTok's Chinese control is a national security threat in America. Trump echoed this opinion during<a href="https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/presidential-actions/executive-order-addressing-threat-posed-tiktok/"> his last presidency.</a>
"Action must be taken to address the threat posed by one mobile application in particular, TikTok," Trump said.
Trump previously said that the location tracking of federal employees and contractors, censored information, and disinformation from TikTok were the reasons for the ban.
"The United States must take aggressive action against the owners of TikTok to protect our national security," Trump previously said.

</ul>
Change of Opinion: This isn't the first time Trump has spoken positively about TikTok or against the ban this year.
Trump has stated previously that a potential ban on TikTok could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39827954/trump-for-tiktok-competition-to-mark-zuckerberg-if-you-dont-have-tiktok-you-have-facebook-and-instag">have a positive impact</a> on Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), a company he has often battled against.
"If you get rid of TikTok, Facebook and Zuckerschmuck will double their business," Trump said earlier this year of Meta Platforms and CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
One reason for the potential reversal of his stance on TikTok <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/03/37722366/why-did-donald-trump-change-his-mind-about-tiktok-follow-the-money-says-rep-nancy-pelosi">could be the support</a> of Republican megadonor&nbsp;Jeff Yass, who owns 15% of ByteDance.
A report from <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/03/14/trump-tiktok-billionaire-donors-00146892" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Politico </a>featured the potential of Trump looking for a way to benefit from opposing the TikTok ban.
&#8220;It&#8217;s a mirror image of 2020,&#8221; former technology company spokesperson&nbsp;Nu Wexler&nbsp;told Politico. &#8220;He tried to ban TikTok and then figured out that there was an out — that he could take care of a donor — and flipped on it.&#8221;
The report highlighted Trump&#8217;s order for ByteDance to sell TikTok&#8217;s U.S. arm. The company that would have benefitted from the move was Oracle Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>), which was co-founded by Trump donor Larry Ellison. Oracle CEO Safra Catz also donated to the Trump campaign for the 2020 election.
Yass is a donor to Club for Growth, a conservative group that supported Trump for the 2024 presidential election. Club for Growth is using former Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway to fight Congress&#8217;s plan to ban TikTok.
&#8220;When it comes to Donald Trump, follow the money,&#8221; Rep.&nbsp;Nancy Pelosi&nbsp;(D-Calif.) told Politico of Trump&#8217;s TikTok reversal.
Trump&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37594839/enemy-of-the-people-trump-slams-meta-stock-as-tiktok-ban-faces-scrutiny" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">acknowledged in an interview</a>&nbsp;with CNBC that he met with Yass but the two did not talk about TikTok or ByteDance.
While the reversal of opinion on banning TikTok could have more to do with being&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/23/10/35339684/if-you-invested-1-000-in-meta-platforms-stock-when-donald-trump-said-facebook-was-always-anti-t" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">outspoken on Meta Platforms&nbsp;</a>and its CEO&nbsp;Mark Zuckerberg, the timing of the reversal after meeting with Yass drew scrutiny.
The report also came after a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/02/36990137/trump-says-anheuser-busch-deserves-second-chance-after-conservative-backlash-rocks-bud-light" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">similar reversal by Trump</a> in regards to the beer brand Bud Light and its parent company, Anheuser-Busch InBev.
The positive comments on the beer company came ahead of a fundraiser for the former president hosted by top Anheuser-Busch lobbyist&nbsp;Jeff Miller.
Trump's change of heart on TikTok and Bud Light coincided with key events or meetings involving major Republican donors.
Another factor in the positive commentary on TikTok could be Trump's granddaughter, Kai Trump. The eldest grandchild of Donald Trump and oldest child of Donald Trump Jr. has built a sizable following on TikTok with 1.3 million <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@thekaitrumpgolfer?lang=en">followers</a>.
Kai Trump regularly shares golf videos on TikTok along with videos of her grandfather, which have generated millions of views. While it remains to be seen how Trump can stop the ban from happening, upsetting his own granddaughter by not fighting to keep TikTok could be another consideration in speaking positively of the app.
Trump's own TikTok, which launched in June 2024, has 14.7 million <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@realdonaldtrump?lang=en">followers </a>and was mostly used during the 2024 election cycle.

TikTok Ban Under Trump? President-Elect Reconsiders As Pelosi Says 'Follow The Money'

On Monday, Zomedica Corp. (AMEX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZOM#AMEX">ZOM</a>) disclosed the launch of two new canine assays for its TRUFORMA <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/ac42643363/zomedica-launches-two-new-quantitative-assays-on-the-truforma-r-platform-canine-nt-probnp-and-pro" rel="noreferrer noopener">In-Clinic Biosensor Testing Platform</a>.
Zomedica&#8217;s progesterone test quantitatively measures progesterone levels in canine serum, helping determine optimal breeding timing, predict parturition dates, plan cesarean sections, and detect reproductive disorders, all with reference lab-level accuracy and in-clinic convenience.
The progesterone assay has become one of the most requested by practitioners, reflecting the high demand given the 4 million puppies born in the U.S. each year.
The canine NT-poBNP test measures NT-proBNP levels in EDTA plasma or serum, helping identify conditions such as congestive heart failure.
It distinguishes between cardiac and respiratory issues, identifies high-risk dogs, and supports monitoring of myxomatous mitral valve degeneration with reference lab-level accuracy.
Dr. Kelli Puccio, a Professional Services Veterinarian for Zomedica, said, &#8220;The TRUFORMA canine NT-proBNP assay facilitates the early detection of canine heart disease with the convenience of results in just a few minutes.&#8221;
&#8221;This provides veterinarians with the ability to start treatments and schedule advanced diagnostic tests more quickly. Increasing our patients&#8217; quality of life earlier in the disease process.&#8221;
&#8220;The TRUFORMA canine progesterone assay provides accurate serial quantitative progesterone measurements in clinic. This will permit veterinarians to recognize the optimal breeding window more efficiently, allowing for more successful breeding cycles.&#8221;
Ashley Wood, PhD, Zomedica&#8217;s Vice President of Research &amp; Development added, &#8220;Canine NT-proBNP and progesterone expand the range of indications to now include cardiac and reproductive conditions, offering even more comprehensive insights and support for clinical decision-making.&#8221;
Last month, Zomedica launched its third equine-focused assay—insulin for equine plasma—on the TRUFORMA <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/ac41966890/zomedica-launches-quantitative-insulin-assay-for-equine-plasma-on-the-truforma-r-platform" rel="noreferrer noopener">In-Clinic Biosensor Testing Platform</a>.
Price Action: ZOM shares are down 4.31% at $0.1199 at the last check on Monday.
