argenx shares drop 15% after halting late-stage trial of Vyvgart in Sjögren's disease

argenx SE's shares fell nearly 15% after it discontinued its Phase 3 UNITY trial of Vyvgart for Sjögren's disease due to futility, as the study failed to meet its primary endpoint of improving systemic disease activity. The decision came earlier than expected, surprising investors and leading to a price target cut by analysts. However, argenx reported positive Phase 2 results for FB102 in celiac disease, which met its primary endpoint and will advance to Phase 3 trials. The mixed news highlights challenges and progress in argenx's drug development pipeline.
