Recent news has generally seen modest single‑digit price reactions, with both corporate updates and routine governance items moving the stock only slightly.
Over the past few months, NewAmsterdam has focused on corporate visibility, governance items, and a major 2025 results update. The company reported $728.9M cash at 12/31/2025, ongoing Phase 3 programs, and regulatory submissions with decisions expected in 2H26. Routine inducement grants and conference appearances produced modest price moves, typically within a few percent. Today’s ACC presentation announcement fits this pattern of incremental clinical and scientific visibility rather than a discrete binary catalyst.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlights upcoming ACC.26 presentations for obicetrapib, including BROADWAY kidney function data, an integrated Phase III safety analysis, and work on LDL particle profiles. In the past months, NewAmsterdam has emphasized its cash position, ongoing Phase 3 trials, and regulatory submissions with decisions expected in 2H26. Investors may focus on how these scientific sessions frame obicetrapib’s safety and risk–benefit profile ahead of future topline and regulatory milestones.

About Obicetrapib
Obicetrapib is a novel, oral, low-dose CETP inhibitor that NewAmsterdam is developing to overcome the limitations of current LDL-lowering treatments. In each of the Company’s Phase 2 trials, ROSE2, TULIP, ROSE, and OCEAN, as well as the Company’s Phase 3 BROOKLYN, BROADWAY and TANDEM trials, evaluating obicetrapib as monotherapy or combination therapy, the Company observed statistically significant LDL-lowering combined with a side effect profile similar to that of placebo. The Company commenced the Phase 3 PREVAIL cardiovascular outcomes trial in March 2022, which is designed to assess the potential of obicetrapib to reduce occurrences of MACE. The Company completed enrollment of PREVAIL in April 2024 and randomized over 9,500 patients. Commercialization rights of obicetrapib in Europe, either as a monotherapy or as part of a fixed-dose combination with ezetimibe, have been exclusively granted to the Menarini Group, an Italy-based, leading international pharmaceutical and diagnostics company.
About NewAmsterdam
NewAmsterdam Pharma (Nasdaq: NAMS) is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company whose mission is to improve patient care in populations with metabolic diseases where currently approved therapies have not been adequate or well tolerated. We seek to fill a significant unmet need for a safe, well-tolerated and convenient LDL-lowering therapy. In multiple phase 3 studies, NewAmsterdam is investigating obicetrapib, an oral, low-dose and once-daily CETP inhibitor, alone or as a fixed-dose combination with ezetimibe, as LDL-C lowering therapies to be used as an adjunct to statin therapy for patients at risk of CVD with elevated LDL-C, for whom existing therapies are not sufficiently effective or well tolerated.
