Insider cluster: 2 insiders, $2.4M total
Actionable Insight • Neutral

The insider sales are routine post-exercise dispositions and do not signal management concern. Focus on the strong MYQORZO launch trajectory and upcoming PDUFA date (Nov 14, 2026) for MAPLE-HCM as key catalysts. Monitor next quarter's prescription growth and cash burn rate.
