Where QTTB is headed

Q32 Bio is a binary event wrapped in a $202M market cap. The asset that matters is bempikibart, an anti-IL-7Rα antibody now running in a Phase 2b for severe alopecia areata after the SIGNAL-AA Part A readout in early 2025 missed the primary endpoint on absolute SALT change but showed enough late-emerging hair regrowth signal to keep the program alive. That ambiguity is exactly why the stock sits where it does. The market is paying for optionality, not conviction. Atopic dermatitis was already deprioritized after a disappointing Phase 2a, so the entire equity story now hinges on whether IL-7 blockade can produce a clean, durable SALT-50 or SALT-75 response with longer dosing.
