The security was last seen up 110.7% at $13.95, after the company released upbeat data from its Phase 2 trial for its experimental treatment tovorafenib in children with a brain tumor called pediatric low-grade glioma (pLGG). No approved therapies for pLGG currently exist. DAWN is still down 14.5% year-to-date, and 30.9% year-over-year, though it is set to topple long-term pressure at its 40-day moving average.
