NEW YORK, June 6 (newratings.com) - Analysts at Lazard Capital maintain their "buy" rating on MGI Pharma (MOGN.NAS), while raising their estimates for the company. The target price is set to $30.

In a research note published yesterday, the analysts mention that the company’s new data on Dacogen in AML in the elderly indicates substantial safety improvements and efficacy over the currently available treatments. The Phase II data on Irofulven in prostate cancer also indicates a trend towards survival, the analysts say. Future catalysts for the company’s share price include the Dacogen Phase III data in MDS and AML in 2008 and the Aquavan NDA filing in 3Q07, Lazard Capital adds. The EPS estimate for 2007 has been raised from $0.71 to $0.72.
