Precigen, Inc. (PGEN) Builds Commercial Stage With Global Regulatory Support
Precigen Inc. (NASDAQ:PGEN) is one of Goldman Sachs’ top penny stock picks. On January 20, Precigen Inc. (NASDAQ:PGEN) received a significant boost after a consensus paper authored by 16 physicians recommended its flagship drug, PAPZIMEOS, as the standard of care for adults with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis.
The recommendation is a significant boost as it asserts a potential shift from surgical intervention to treating underlying HPV infection that causes recurrent respiratory papillomatosis. The medical condition affects the respiratory tract and is caused by a chronic HPV-6 or HPV-11 infection.
“The speed and agility with which the authors evaluated the evidence and aligned on a recommended first-line treatment and new standard of care for adults with RRP underscores both the unmet need in this disease,” said Helen Sabzevari, President and CEO of Precigen.
Precigen has already transitioned into a commercial-stage company with the US approval of PAPZIMEOS in August 2025. It has become the first and only FDA treatment for adults with RRP. The company has also received a significant boost from the European Medicines Agency, which has validated the Marketing Authorization Application for PAPZIMEOS for the treatment of adults with RRP.
Precigen, Inc. (NASDAQ:PGEN) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing gene and cellular therapies to treat complex, high-need diseases in immuno-oncology, autoimmune disorders, and infectious diseases.
