- SVB Securities cuts 4D Molecular to Market Perform from Outperform with a price target of $12, down from $28 after the Fabry update.

- Fabry disease is a rare inherited condition that affects enzymes that metabolize fat. Fat deposits then clog blood vessels and tissue.
- The inclusion of female patients in the phase 1/2 clinical trial was supported by clinical experience and a GLP toxicology study in female mice models.
