About Quantitative Ratings

Morningstar Quantitative Ratings for Stocks are generated using an algorithm that compares companies that are not under analyst coverage to peer companies that do receive analyst-driven ratings. Companies with quantitative ratings are not formally covered by a Morningstar analyst, but are statistically matched to analyst-rated companies, allowing our models to calculate a quantitative moat, fair value, and uncertainty rating.

Company Profile

Geron Corp is a biopharmaceutical company focused on blood cancers. Its telomerase inhibitor, RYTELO (imetelstat), is approved in the United States and European Union for certain adult patients with lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (LR-MDS) with transfusion-dependent anemia. RYTELO inhibits telomerase activity in malignant stem and progenitor cells, which may reduce abnormal cell proliferation while supporting the production of healthy cells. It is also conducting a Phase 3 trial of imetelstat in patients with JAK-inhibitor-refractory or relapsed myelofibrosis (R/R MF) and studies in other hematologic malignancies. The company operates as a single segment, being the development of therapeutic products for oncology.
