Shares of New York-based Intercept—which has 45 employees and no products on the market—closed Thursday at $275.87 on the Nasdaq Stock Market, valuing the company at $5.3 billion. On Wednesday, the stock closed at $72.39 with a market capitalization of $1.4 billion. That's the largest one-day jump among Nasdaq Composite companies with market values of over $1 billion since at least 2012, according to FactSet Research Systems Inc. The drug, called obeticholic acid, or OCA, mimics a naturally occurring human bile acid that Intercept believes has liver-protective properties. The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases sponsored a clinical trial of the drug in patients with a condition known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, which involves fat accumulation in the liver that can cause inflammation and lead to the more serious conditions of cirrhosis and liver failure. The disease progresses over many years and often has no symptoms in the early stages. There are no specific therapies for the disease, which affects 2% to 5% of Americans, according to the National Institutes of Health. Instead, physicians often recommend patients lose weight if they are overweight, improve their diets, exercise, and avoid alcohol and unnecessary medications. source: http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702304347904579310212798133916
