The Bull Case For Disc Medicine (IRON) Could Change Following Strong New Myelofibrosis Anemia Data - Learn Why

Simply Wall St·12/14/2025 17:24:56
Listen to the news
  • Disc Medicine recently reported positive initial data from its ongoing Phase 2 RALLY-MF trial of DISC-0974 in myelofibrosis-related anemia, showing large hepcidin reductions, improved iron levels, meaningful hemoglobin gains, and a generally well-tolerated safety profile across multiple patient groups.
  • A key takeaway was that DISC-0974 showed clinically meaningful anemia improvements even in patients on concomitant JAK inhibitor therapy, hinting at potential use alongside current standards of care.
  • We’ll now look at how these early myelofibrosis anemia results and the hepcidin-lowering mechanism shape Disc Medicine’s investment narrative.

What Is Disc Medicine's Investment Narrative?

To own Disc Medicine, you need to believe that its hepcidin-focused approach can translate into real, differentiated therapies across rare blood disorders, and that the company can fund this journey long enough to reach that point. The latest RALLY-MF Phase 2 data strengthen DISC-0974 as a potential second pillar alongside bitopertin, which already has an FDA-accepted NDA for EPP, and meaningfully reinforce the near-term catalyst stack around additional MF data and potential regulatory milestones. That helps the story, but it does not remove the core risks: Disc still has no revenue, rising losses, regular equity raises and a valuation that already prices in substantial pipeline success. With shares up sharply over the past year, the market is increasingly sensitive to any clinical or regulatory disappointment.

However, one key risk could catch some shareholders off guard if trials do not progress as planned. Disc Medicine's share price has been on the slide but might be up to 9% below fair value. Find out if it's a bargain.
