Checkpoint Therapeutics' Cosibelimab, an anti-PD-L1 antibody, shows promise for treating cSCC, with potential FDA approval by December 2024, making CKPT a speculative "buy." Cosibelimab's dual mechanism of action, engaging both T cells and NK cells, offers a competitive edge over other PD-L1 inhibitors, enhancing its efficacy. Despite CKPT's low cash reserves and regulatory risks, the potential market for Cosibelimab in cSCC treatment is estimated at over $1 billion in the US.

Checkpoint Therapeutics (CKPT) has been upgraded to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), reflecting growing optimism about the company's earnings prospects. This might drive the stock higher in the near term.
