- Monday, February 25, 2:45 PM Arena Pharmaceutical (ARNA +1.4%) trades in the green today after earlier disclosing the price for a 60-day supply of Belviq 10-mg tablets at $199.50. This compares with Vivus' (VVUS +1%) Qsymia, which retails for $160 per month at a medium dose and $220 per month for the higher dose. Analysts note the success of Belviq will largely depend on lower co-payments and broader insurance coverage, which could come in the next two years. 5 Comments [Healthcare, On the Move]
- Wednesday, February 6, 12:20 PM Shares of Arena Pharmaceutical (ARNA +1.8%) and Vivus (VVUS +3.3%) both gain today, after Leerink Swann resumes coverage on both with an Outperform rating. The firm gives VVUS a price target range of $19 - $20. 2 Comments [Healthcare, On the Move]

Midday top 10 Losers: CALI -12%. OIBR -12%. BVX -10%. DOM -9%. ARNA -8%. IIVI -8%. AMRI -8%. UPI -8%. IPXL -8%. EXFO -7%. Comment! [On the Move] - Tuesday, January 22, 9:43 AM Arena Pharmaceuticals (ARNA) slides 7.8% and adds to a 6.5% loss on Friday after the EU's CHMP health regulator didn't make a decision about approving the company's Belviq weight-loss treatment at meetings last week, meaning the firm will have to wait for at least another month for a ruling. It doesn't help that Arena received a 180-day list of questions about Belviq. "It's not pretty," says Adam Feuerstein. (Arena 8-K) 3 Comments [On the Move, Healthcare]

Comment! [On the Move] - Wednesday, January 2, 9:44 AM The Street's Adam Feuerstein makes 13 biotech stock predictions for 2013, with his number one being that the U.S. launch of Arena Pharmaceuticals' (ARNA) and Eisai's weight-loss pill Belviq "will be a major disappointment." Feuerstein also reckons that Belviq will fail to receive European approval. 17 Comments [Healthcare]
- Monday, December 24, 2012, 7:27 AM The marketing partner (Eisai ESALY.PK) for Arena's (ARNA) obesity-fighting Belviq has petitioned the DEA to expedite its approval process. If granted (this sort of request is rarely denied), this could have the drug in pharmacies on February 7, writes Joe Dedvukaj. Combined with what looks to be imminent EU approval, Street analysts will find themselves needing to catch up to lofty sales figures. 3 Comments [Healthcare, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, November 28, 2012, 1:52 PM Arena Pharmaceuticals (ARNA -0.1%) enters into a co-development and license agreement with Ildong Pharmaceutical for Temanogrel, ARNA's treatment for for myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, stroke, peripheral artery disease, and other cardiovascular diseases, subject to the drug's further development and regulatory approval. The agreement grants Ildong exclusive rights to commercialize and market the drug. 7 Comments [Healthcare, Global & FX]
- Wednesday, November 21, 2012, 10:40 AM Weight loss drug makers get a lift today after Aetna (AET -0.6%) revises its criteria under which the insurer considers weight reduction medications as "medically necessary" for treatment of obesity. In a Clinical Policy Bulletin revision dated yesterday, AET identified certain medications that have been approved by the FDA for weight reduction which would be covered under its policy: Qsymia, marketed by VIVUS (VVUS +13.2%), Belviq from Arena Pharmaceuticals (ARNA +2.9%), Didrex from Pfizer (PFE +0.1%), Xenical from Roche (RHHBY +0.3) and GlaxoSmithKline's (GSK +0.2%) Alli. Orexigen (OREX +6.5%), although not named in the bulletin, is also higher on the news. 11 Comments [Healthcare, On the Move]
- Tuesday, November 6, 2012, 4:38 PM More on Arena Pharmaceuticals (ARNA): Q3 beats on a per share basis but comes up short on revenue. Separately, the company announced that it had granted Ildong Pharmaceutical exclusive rights to market and distribute its weight-loss drug Belviq in South Korea, subject to regulatory approval of BELVIQ by the Korea Food and Drug Administration. Shares +1.6% AH. 8 Comments [Earnings, Global & FX, On the Move]

The announcement was also made on its website, Qsymia.com. Peer competitor Arena Pharmaceuticals (ARNA +1%) also gets a lift on the news, in spite of the fact that its weight-loss drug, Belviq, won't be available until 2013. 7 Comments [Healthcare, On the Move]
- Thursday, September 6, 2012, 3:54 PM Shares of Orexigen (OREX +16.7%) are soaring after Credit Suisse initiates coverage with an Outperform, saying it likes the prospects of a trial that will look at the cardiovascular impact of Contrave. Leerink Swann also recommends investors buy it aggressively. Meanwhile, it starts Arena Pharmaceutical (ARNA -4.6%) with an Underperform , saying Belviq may not generate enough revenue to justify the stock's current valuation. 22 Comments [Healthcare, On the Move]
- Tuesday, August 28, 2012, 10:44 AM Short sellers continue to bet on biotech firms compared to the July 31 settlement date. Arena Pharmaceuticals (ARNA -0.3%), Gilead Sciences (GILD +1.4%), Pharmacyclics (PCYC -2.2%), Vertex Pharmaceuticals (VRTX -0.6%) and VIVUS (VVUS -0.4%) all saw short interest rise more than 9% between July 31 and August 15.
