Investing.com - H.C. Wainwright reiterated a Buy rating and $16.00 price target on Cabaletta Bio Inc.

According to InvestingPro data, the stock has shown remarkable momentum with a 117.56% return over the past six months, while analysts maintain a strong bullish consensus with price targets ranging from $2 to $22.
The data presented at the conference, which runs from October 24-29, covered RESET trials for Myositis, SSc, and SLE. H.C. Wainwright highlighted Cabaletta’s emphasis on rese-cel’s superior safety profile, noting that among the first 32 patients treated, 66% did not experience any cytokine release syndrome (CRS) events.

The firm pointed out that very few severe immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) cases have been reported in Cabaletta’s trials, with one occurrence in a lupus patient who had a prior episode of pericarditis before treatment in August 2024, and a grade 3 case in the SSc cohort reported in March 2025.
By comparison, Bristol Myers Squibb reported at the ACR that 73.1% of SLE patients receiving its CD19 cell therapy at the recommended dose experienced grade 1 or grade 2 CRS, while one patient experienced a grade 3 event.
