Oruka Therapeutics Market Cap at $5.44 Billion

Despite the recent stock slide, Oruka Therapeutics still has a substantial market capitalization, which suggests that there is some investor confidence in its long-term potential.

Bull case

The positive Week 28 data for ORKA-001 in the EVERLAST-A trial shows a 71.4% PASI 100 rate. If this treatment continues to demonstrate efficacy and safety in future trials, it could lead to significant long-term growth for the company.
