Gilead Sciences Inc. GILD, +2.55% shares rallied in the extended session Thursday following a report that one of the company's drugs showed promising results in treating COVID-19 patients. Gilead shares surged 12% after hours, following a 2.6% rise to finish Thursday's session at $76.54. Late Thursday, health-care media site Stat reported that nearly all 125 COVID-19 patients in a late-stage clinical study at the University of Chicago treated with Gilead's remdesivir had been discharged after a week of treatment. Stat reported that 113 patients had a severe form of the disease and that two had died. The University of Chicago results, however, are only part of a larger study group that includes 2,400 patients with a severe form of COVID-19 and 1,600 ones with a moderate form. Gilead expects to start releasing results in April. Last week, an analysis published in the New England Journal of Medicine claimed most COVID-19 patients given remdesivir showed clinical improvement.
