Moreover, a stock that does not move despite strong fundamentals often offers better value than one already priced for perfection. Check Fundamentals of Lupin Limited.

Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited Announces Two-year Data for Leqselvi® in Severe Alopecia Areata
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited (SUNPHARMA) shares two-year efficacy and safety data for LEQSELVI® in severe alopecia areata at EADV Congress 2026.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited (SUNPHARMA) announced today that LEQSELVI® (deuruxolitinib) will be featured in seven presentations at the 2026 European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) Congress, including a featured oral presentation reporting long-term safety results from a European open-label extension (OLE) study evaluating up to two years of treatment in adults with severe alopecia areata (AA). The featured oral presentation found that the safety profile of LEQSELVI remained consistent with previous clinical experience through up to two years of open-label treatment in adults with severe AA.
Long-Term Efficacy and Safety
Most treatment-emergent adverse events were mild or moderate in severity, treatment discontinuations due to adverse events were uncommon, and no deaths, thrombosis, or major adverse cardiovascular events were reported among patients receiving the FDA-approved dose of 8 mg twice-daily. Long-term efficacy analyses presented in a poster also showed durable scalp hair regrowth through Week 108 in patients receiving LEQSELVI in the European OLE. Of OLE baseline treatment responders maintaining response at Week 52 and continuing in the study, 93.9% maintained response at Week 108. Many patients (76.6%) who were baseline nonresponders achieved response by Week 52.
Clinical Significance
“Severe alopecia areata is a chronic autoimmune disease, making long-term treatment considerations particularly important for both patients and their clinicians,” said Arash Mostaghimi, MD, MPA, MPH, FAAD, Vice Chair of Clinical Trials and Innovation and Associate Professor of Dermatology at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. “Collectively, these data show durable efficacy and maintenance of response for deuruxolitinib over time and reinforce the growing body of evidence supporting its use as a long-term treatment option for eligible adults.”
The LEQSELVI data presentation is one of 22 presentations from Sun Pharma across its dermatology and immunology portfolio. LEQSELVI® (deuruxolitinib) 8 mg tablets is an oral selective inhibitor of Janus kinases JAK1 and JAK2 FDA-approved for the treatment of adults with severe alopecia areata.
